profile
From the band's formation in 1997, Dir en grey have achieved moderate popularity in their home country, but more recently they are becoming internationally recognised as their live tours now stretch to both Europe and the USA.
Dir en grey cannot simply be classified under one genre as their style has developed and evolved through the years although one can safely make the assumption that the band has always contained rock elements. With their style currently heading into more metal based compositions, Dir en grey is one band that people either love or hate as some fans prefer the visual kei era as opposed to the more casual era as of later years.
