J-Rock superstars, Dir en grey, are set to release a DVD charting their life on the road since 2005. Featuring footage from Rock am Ring, Rock am Park, Wacken Open Air, and the Family Values tour, the DVD, confusingly titled A Knot Of,is set to be released on 2nd Feb 2009 via Gan-Shin. No doubt their legion of fans will snap it up in droves.

The band are also set to return to the UK early next year, where they’ll be doing their thing alongside Mindless Self Indulgence, Bring Me The Horizon, Black Tide and In Case Of Fire on the Kerrang! Magazine Relentless Energy Drink tour. Wow, that’s a mouthful.

    After several tours in the U.S. and in the U.K. it makes plenty of sense for Dir en grey to put out a DVD. Fans in America aren't totally new to Diru, some of us have been fans of them since their earlier Visual Kei (glam rock) periods. Now if only they would re-release their "DECADE" compilation, which features some of their older songs, or atleast KISOU and VULGAR. Its so hard to find their previous Tour and PV DVD's or pre-Withering to Death / MoAB CD's for less than the typical $40 import cost, and anything priced reasonably tends to be a bootleg from Tawain or Korea. Its about frigging time DeG caught on to the fact their U.S. fanbase actually wants this kind of stuff (and at affordable AMERICAN prices). Here's to hoping their future American tours will be recorded onto DVD like this and sold in U.S. stores such as Hot Topic and F.y.e. where the fans can more easily obtain it without burining holes in their wallets.
