This single is one of their best ones and I cannot wait until their new CD comes out. The CD/DVD edition is amazingly packaged and the poster was a great bonus! This is a huge must for any Dir en grey fan! Shipping was incredibly fast and I am extremely pleased! I will be ordering from CDJapan again! Thank you!

LOTUS [DVD付初回限定盤] / Dir en grey
2011年、遂に放たれたDir en grey次なる動き!! "蓮"を意味するLOTUSは、タイトル通りにメロディアスな旋律を奏でる京の歌声としなやかなリズムとは対照的に、未踏領域の低音までギターとベースのチューニングを下げることで生まれたへヴィな音が絡みあった楽曲。4thアルバム『VULGAR』から生まれ変わり、既に秋ツアーで披露された「OBSCURE」に加え、夏ツアー最終公演の新木場スタジオコースト(7/20公演)よりライヴ音源では初となる「冷血なりせば」が収録された今作も、海外エンジニアにより日本国内では他に類を見ない迫力ある作品に仕上がった。 初回生産限定盤は、7/21に行われた新木場スタジオコースト公演より3曲 (「残」「LIE BURIED WITH A VENGEANCE」「逆上堪能ケロイドミルク」)のライヴ映像を収録したDVD付。

I've rated the Limited Edition higher because of the extra content and great packaging. The packaging was the same as the Hageshi.....single (minus OBI). It had a slipcase and then a mini vinyl-like case that housed the CD and DVD. This version also came with a sticker :D The CD is the same (of course) but the DVD was a real treat for me. Quality-wise it was great, looks just like one of their DVD concerts. It was great to see them play a song from Kisou, and a pretty solid performance at that. Zan and Lie buried with a vengeance were also great performances. Overall, 8/10. Great CD, Sweet DVD, and awesome packaging. Can't wait for their new album!
This single was O.K. for the most part. Lotus was good lyric wise and Kyo did a good job with his vocals on this. The music itself and guitar work was good. Now to my negative about this single. It may be because I love Shokubeni so much or because I was expecting something of that feel and magnitude be similar but I just didn't like the remake. In my honest opinion I believe the original Obscure was better, in feel and sound. As for the third song I didn't like. I felt it to be somewhat lacking. This is why I gave this single the score I did. I'm a long time dir en grey fan and own almost all their dvds and cds, and while I may not like every song they put out there are always songs that I just can't stop rocking to, (Shokubeni, Vinushka, Obscure, Kodou, Red, umbrella, withering to death, saku, etc) but this single is average, Lotus was good but they destroyed Obscure which was already just perfect and an unmemorable third song which I don't think anyone cares about. Long story short if you like Dir en grey Lotus won't disappoint. If you liked the original obscure then you probably wont like it. The third song suck.
