If you don't like them why waste your time posting about them?

Besides, they couldn't possibly be the worst band on the planet; think of Nickelback, Creed, Korn, Lordi, etc.

If you honestly prefer Korn over Dir en grey then that's your prerogative, but I'd rather listen to good music.

Have you even given them a chance, meaning have you actually listened to them or are you just basing your opinion on one song?

To INSERT HERE - listen, I saw this BAND live, and they sucked BIG time. They are horrible, but then again maybe I just don't understand their style of music. I think they are some form of black metal. I don't like them. So, I have given them a chance, and they are quite possibly the worst band I have heard or seen. Invitro is a close second!

To BodomFan and Txmetalhead - Whoopty doo. You don't like their music. I could say the same thing about Children of Bodom and Guns N' Roses. Do I think they suck ass? Yes. Am I going to argue and say they are the worst band in the world? No, because then I'd be a pretentious douche.

And no, they aren't black metal. You should get your genres straight.

Are you a member of the band? Is that why you are so fiercely loyal to Dir En Grey? Welcome to Metal Underground...

And what is your reasoning behind their "major suckage"? It also depends on the song you hear, because some are crap while others are ace.
