I wish someone who actually knew about music could help explain why the melody sounds like that about 45 seconds into “I’ll” by Dir en Grey. I need to find more songs like that or find some way to reproduce it with my guitar because it’s soo good and I’m scared to overplay it.

Verse A (0:40): C min - Ab - C min - Ab - Bb x2. Melody centers around C and Eb, with the end of the phrases using F and G (suggesting F min - G min in first inversion at the end of the phrase).
Verse B: F min - Bb - Eb - Ab - D dim - G (major) - C (major) - F min - Bb - Eb - E dim - F min - Bb - C min
...there's a lot going on here. The circle of fifths is pretty standard, but the G major and C major introduce a new group of notes (from the C major scale) that subverts expectation. The aborted second pass through (moving up through the E dim) also truncates the expected form.

Then back to intro B, and back through the verse. After that,
Chorus: Eb - Bb - C min - Ab - Bb x2 with an Eb tag. Now we're in the relative minor, which gives a certain sense of brightness compared to everything before this.
Solo: C min - Bb - F (major)/A - Ab - Bb x2; Verse B; Chorus x4 w/ Eb tag to end.

As for the melody in the Verse B, he's mostly using the third of the chord (so an Ab over the F minor, a D over the Bb, etc.), and that follows the circle of fifths around (which includes the E natural over the C major, giving this the unexpected lift). This ends on the second Eb, where he goes to the fifth (Bb) rather than the third (G), which is immediately followed by the break from the circle with the E diminished chord, so the whole effect is to jar the listener abruptly.

OMG!! I’m a fake fan! Dir en Grey released a new album on the eighth and I didn’t even know!! I came on here to say Glamscure is putting out a new single but I didn’t know Diru had anything 😢😢 I had just posted about Toshiya and Die the day before too

Just completed the sword route of DR chap 3. That was ominous and foreboding.

the whole game was probably meant to be played all at once, and that this would clue people in to the weird route on a replay.

I struggled with Eram a bit but the shadow mantle was worth it. Finally was able to beat the knight after so many tries.

I almost feel kinda bad for Kris. Not enough to not do the weird route lol

Am I taking the whole Ministry vs Resistance thing to seriously? If so I'll stop if i have to. I just want to make it so anyone can play along.
