GOTCHAROCKA: Shingo leave the band

Yesterdeay , Bassist Shingo left from GOTCHAROCKA.

According to the official announcement Shingo told the members that he wants to depart in the beginning of the year. The reason was that the members have different opinions on the future of the band. In the announcement the members pointed out that the whole situation is very burdensome for the bassist and in the end they've come to the decision that Shingo will leave the band in one month - also due to his poor physical health and family reasons.

Shingo has performed with the band for the last time at TSUTAYA O-West , yesterday, on March 30th. The band stated that all lives will be held as scheduled and that they will continue with their band activity as three-members band. Now, it seems that Jun will take the role of bassist.

ROYZ: Live in Korean with Nemesis

For Visual Kei band Royz this year started with their 2nd Asia tour. 

It was a tour that led them to five different cities - but not to a Korean one. Also the band's first Asia tour didn't include a live there. Now Korean fans have something to look forward to: Royz will perform at Seoul Rolling Hall two days in a row. And they won't be alone on stage. South Korean rock band Nemesis will perform together with them!

The first live will be held on June 14th and the second one one day later. Tickets cost 66,000 South Korean Won but right now there's no information on the day they'll go on sale.

And if you're currently in Japan you'll be able to buy a special "tour package". It's limited to 100 tickets and you'll fly to Korea on June 14th to attend the first live. But after that live the evening doesn't end for you. You will probably have an awesome time at the after show party with the members! Also the live on the 2nd day is included as well as the flight back to Japan on June 16th.

DIR EN GREY: TOUR2013 GHOUL - Special Website.

For the issue of April 23 of Documentary Blu- ray & DVD 「 TOUR13 GHOUL 」 , the band DIR EN GREY has opened a new Special Website.

This is the cover.

TOUR2013 GHOUL - Special Website:
http://direngrey.co.jp/special/tour13ghoul/index.html

Why DIR EN GREY continues to take the stage

"It has been 15 years since DIR EN GREY made their spectacular debut, and they are still continuing to progress. DIR EN GREY has just announced their fourth video documentary, TOUR13 GHOUL, with footage that documents DIR EN GREY face to face with reality, will be released on April 23, 2014. It features their domestic headlining tour beginning at YOKOHAMA BLITZ on September 18, 2013, where Kyo revealed his self-created, skull-like make-up that gave him the appearance of a ghoul starved for human flesh. The tour's stage production invited audiences into the world of DIR EN GREY, while the band followed their instincts and laid themselves bare for the crowds. The documentary also includes their month-long American tour, from the fatal shooting at LAX on November 1 for which DIR EN GREY were present, to the looming possibility of cancelling shows due to a tour bus breakdown. The three months of filming captures on video anxiety about their new challenges, unimaginable realities, and a ray of hope at the end of hardship. Why take the stage?　——　This is the film that documents the five members who repeatedly ponder this unanswerable question and fight their way through difficulty. Don't miss their words and feelings from the inside."
