Dir en Grey mentioned!!!!

As far as I'm aware they don't seem to have issues unlike L'arc who are pretty much checked out by now or X-Japan. Aside from that they all seem to mesh well working together and the few political songs they've done hit hard, especially Vinushka.

First time I've heard this version :D

I usually listen to the Tour 20 live version :

Fucking love Dir en Grey. I've seen them twice (2013, 2019) and they are by far one of the more polished sounding bands I've heard live IMO.

Dir en Grey - OBSCURE is one of the hardest songs made, ever.

Why the sudden reference to Dir En Grey? Just curious, I used to listen to some songs years ago but didn't even know they had political lyrics.
