This will be DIR EN GREY’s 33rd single overall, the newest single since the release of their digital single “Ochita Koto no Aru Sora” last year, and the latest physical release since “The world of mercy”, which released in September 2019. “Oboro” is a song that expresses the pain and emotions created by human weakness.
