☄♪ DIR EN GREY's new DVD to come with bonus CD featuring DUM SPIRO SPERO songs in symphonic version

Just in case you haven't pre-ordered yet DIR EN GREY's upcoming DVD and Blu-ray release "DUM SPIRO SPERO AT NIPPON BUDOKAN" announced last April and coming out on July 16, now is the time. Not only did the band release a preview showcasing exactly the superb performance you would miss out on if you skip this one, DIR EN GREY also made the deal even more tempting with the inclusion of a bonus CD in the initial limited version.

The album "DUM SPIRO SPERO" is of course DIR EN GREY's revolutionary 8th album. Released in 2011, it charted in both Japan's Oricon and the US Billboard. In the bonus CD included in the initial limited version of the band's latest DVD and Blu-ray, the 13 tracks in the original album were given new life. They were re-recorded by the band with new arrangement, mostly symphonic.

The re-arranged tracks and featured collaborators are listed below. But before that, feast your eyes on the DVD and Blu-ray's artfully creepy cover artwork:
