Orkus Interview Translation
On a long journeyAt the Wacken Open Air 2006 performed a band that was probably unknown to most guests. The well-organized event traditionally comes up with the greatest of the great and bands like D'espairsRay count as quiet hot tips. Seemingly following the motto of "The buffalo calls and everyone comes running" the sold-out, biggest Metal Festival opened its gates from August, 3rd until August, 5th. Not just for us, but especially for a couple of fans, the japanese band should remain the reason to travel up north to Wacken to experience some sort of different festival flair. Of course we used the rare chance to interview the whole band just before their live to ask them extraordinary, curious questions which were not exactly fitting the Japanese standard, and again managed to raise tiny question marks above their heads.
Orkus: How did you spend this day? Did you have the chance to see some of the festival yet?
Karyu: The only thing I can say about the festival is that it's amazingly huge!
Hizumi: It's the first time for us to play at such an event. There are no festivals of this kind in Japan. It's just very different from Japan.
Orkus: What are you going to do with your V.I.P. passes once you're back at home?
Hizumi: I'll pin them on my wall.
Tsukasa: I guess I'll keep mine as well and everytime I look at them I will remember the Wacken Open Air.
Karyu: I suppose I will put mine into my casket and once I'm old I will look at them with delight and remember this visit.
Hizumi: I guess I will do this too and whenever I look at this pass I will loudly say "Wacken!" (laugh)
Zero: Usually I collect everything of us in a little casket. I will keep these passes in there too!
Orkus: We are very happy that all of you could make it today. Last October, one day before your "Kagerou x D'espairsRay Coupling Tour" live, only three of you could make it! Hizumi, what happened to you back then? (laugh)
Hizumi: (hesitating) That was very difficult. I even almost missed the live! But I don't really want to talk about this. It was just hard.
Orkus: Let's come back to your album.
[Coll:set] is almost one year old already, at least in Japan. Are you currently back in the studio working on something new?
Karyu: Since July, 24th there's a new single out which you can only buy at concerts in Japan. There's no plan yet to release this track in Germany.
Orkus: Could you still tell us what this single is like? Have you remained faithful to your style or have you tried out new ideas?
Karyu: You can find two elements in the new song. Of course we kept our style. However, we also tried to show new sides. On the whole D'espairsRay always remains D'espairsRay, though.
Orkus: Did you know that your record made it into the readers' charts in July/August?
Karyu: No, we didn't know! But we are very happy with this choice!
Orkus: Do you actually get to read reports by the German press?
Karyu: Even though we are really interested, we don't get magazines at hand. That's very sad!
Orkus: Last time you visited us during the "Coupling Tour 2005". What everyone is interested in – besides the shows – is what life off stage is like. You were eight people on tour. What did you do?
D'espairsRay: Do you mean before or after shows?
Orkus: Feel free to tell us about both!
Hizumi: Right before lives nothing much happens. We just prepare. Afterwards, however, we often fall for alcohol!
Orkus: I just got to see you for the first time in October and I was immediately enthralled. To tell you about my personal view point right away: I felt like transferred into another world. Do you try to take your audience into another world?
Karyu: We don't really plan ahead on doing that but it is nice to capture the audience!
Orkus: Since we're talking about other worlds: Please imagine you were to create your own dream world. What would it look like?
Karyu: Being on stage every day, of course!
Hizumi: I would agree. As long as it's fun, of course. Nothing works without fun.
Zero: In my dream world my wish would be command. That means, whatever I would want to have, I would get immediately.
