DIR EN GREY will release a new digital single on August 3rd.
Ochita koto no aru sora will feature three tracks: the title song, a new version of
CLEVER SLEAZOID and a live version of Followers recorded during their show at Islington Assembly Hall held on February 5th this year.
While all three tracks will be available for download via digital stores such as iTunes, Google Play and Amazon Music, only a "promotion edit" version of the title track will be available on streaming services.
This is DIR EN GREY's first new single in about a year, following September 2019's The World of Mercy.
In addition, they have announced that they will be gradually uploading ambient versions of their works on digital platforms under the artist name DIR EN GREY Ambient Collection. The series began in July with a version of Ranunculus that has been used as an
ending theme at their concerts. Check out DIR EN GREY Ambient Collection on Spotify, Apple Music and other platforms.
A live version of Zessai, a song from LUNA SEA guitarist SUGIZO's 2017 solo album ONENESS M featuring guest vocals from DIR EN GREY frontman Kyo, also recently got a digital release. The song is one
of the preceding singles from a fan club-limited live album called
LIVE IN TOKYO that SUGIZO will be putting out on September 30th. The track can be downloaded from iTunes.
