< DIR EN GREY | From MORTAL DOWNER to their 30th Anniversary >
In this interview, Die talks about MORTAL DOWNER, the uncertainty that shaped past albums, why he welcomes negative criticism, how songs take on a life of their own on stage, his philosophy of becoming less ordinary rather than masculine or feminine, and the candid story behind the name “Big Gurl.”
