DIR EN GREY: Announced New Single (Update Spot)

DIR EN GREY ha annunciato il loro tanto atteso 28° single 「詩 踏 み」 (UTAFUMI) che sarà rilasciato il 27 Luglio 2016.

KAORU (Dir en grey): info about his health

Through our friends had received the news that Kaoru had any health problems, specifically in hand, that could create problems in playing the guitar.

Kaoru suffering from nerve paralysis in his right hand.

Fortunately, however, it does not seem to be anything serious.

We present the news issued by a forum that has made reliable research:

〜 Since 2014, he has been suffering from nerve paralysis and dysfunction to the index finger and thumb.
Recently, three other fingers have gone worse. Currently it is not able to play properly and needs to have his hand bandaged during live performances to prevent further damage. It is not clear whether the problem could be solved (or with surgery), but there is currently no further change in his situation.
In an interview he said he could not hold a guitar pick on his own
He consulted several doctors, received a diagnosis saying that is caused by loose ligaments not connect tendons and joints.
"It seems to be an occupational disease. I was told by the doctors that it will get better, but at this stage there is no change in symptoms. So, during the performance I have to use a double-sided tape to attach a guitar pick to my hand. "
"There's nothing I can do. I can only patiently wait for healing."  〜

........................................................

Attraverso dei nostri amici avevamo ricevuto la notizia che Kaoru avesse dei problemi di salute, in particolare alla mano, che potrebbe creare problemi nel suonare la chitarra.

Kaoru  soffre di paralisi del nervo nella mano destra.

Fortunatamente, tuttavia, non sembra essere nulla di grave.

Vi presentiamo la notizia rilasciata da un forum che ha fatto della ricerche affidabile:

~ Dal 2014, egli è stato colpito da paralisi del nervo e la disfunzione al dito indice e il pollice.
Recentemente, altre tre dita sono andate peggio. Al momento non è in grado di suonare bene e ha bisogno di avere la mano bendata durante le performance dal vivo per prevenire ulteriori danni. Non è chiaro se il problema potrebbe essere risolto (o con la chirurgia), ma non esiste attualmente alcuna ulteriore cambiamento nella sua situazione.
In un'intervista ha detto che non poteva tenere un plettro per la chitarra da solo
Ha consultato diversi medici, ha ricevuto una diagnosi che ha spiegato che è causata dai legamenti allentati, che non collegano bene tendini e articolazioni.
"Sembra essere una malattia professionale. Mi è stato detto dai medici che andrà meglio, ma in questa fase non vi è alcun cambiamento dei sintomi. Così, durante la performance devo usare un nastro biadesivo per attaccare il plettro della chitarra  alla mia mano. "
"Non c'è niente che io possa fare. Posso solo aspettare pazientemente per la guarigione." ~

"DIR EN GREY, a new jacket that shows “the truth”

The artwork for the new jacket was created by Yoji Koda, who was also helping with announced in 2011 “DUM SPIRO SPERO” and released in 2012 “Rinkaku”. Using 4 suggestions from the band - “beginning, water” “something that will feel like being born” “something shapeless, not defined etc” “being inside a living thing” - as keywords he created an original artwork. Furthermore, Koda made a comment “it’s not about what was the story at the present time, it’s about what you will feel after seeing it and taking it into your hands. From that you will get an answer. The ‘ARCHE’ I saw was the rediscovered ‘truth’”.

Also, the content of the Special Limited Edition (DVD/Blu-ray with 2CDs) was fully revealed. The additional disc from Special Limited Edition will not only include new songs “and Zero”, ” Tefutefu”, but also remixes of “SUSTAIN THE UNTRUTH” and “Unraveling”, acoustic version of new songs “Soshaku” and “Behind a vacant image”, and a crossover version of “Uroko”, a total of 7 songs. Moreover, the studio live recording shot in one take of “Un deux” and “Chain repulsion”, footage from the summer tour “TOUR14 PSYCHONNECT-mode of “GAUZE”?-“, and extras “BEHIND THE SCENES OF ARCHE” will be included on the additional disc.
