Zy 47: The GazettE interview~~~
Even though producing process has had a few delays, I heard the title of DIM was determined quite a while back.
Ruki: When we make an album, we usually think about what color we want to make the work. Then I thought it would be good to have a dark image, but I didn’t think much of the title "DARK"……and it wasn’t really "BLACK." I had a vague image of "dim," so I used it. "DIM."
I see. I haven’t yet heard the polished version yet, but listening to what I have heard I got the impression that the album was quite heavy. And I think it had quite a few songs that really make you actually listen.
Ruki: Well, we made the title after we made songs.
So, you just happened to make songs like that, or were you in the mood to make darker songs?
Ruki: Um, no, I don’t think so. I just wanted to do songs like that. So it was not like I tried to do it on purpose, I just wanted to do heavy songs like that.
Yeah, they are heavy. But I thought melodies really stood out.
Ruki: Yes. I tried to do that. But it doesn’t mean that I tired to do songs that we push powerfully, but I just wanted to make songs that I had never made up until then.
Uruha: This time, we didn’t say like “We want hard songs" or “We want quiet songs” ……we often hear about “the world view of the GazettE,” but I wondered what our world view really is.
Oh, no. You have a quite deep world view!
Uruha: If so, we weren’t really conscious of making one, which I think is our strong point. I think that being conscious of our so-called world view when we make songs may help us show even greater things to our fans. As we hadn’t really been conscious of that up until now, it was a little more difficult this time to make our music.
With your world view, you have an image of painful, gaudy, and darkness.
Uruha: If fans listen to what we make with a consciousness of this world view, they may say it’s wrong! (smile)
Aoi: If you thought it had many quiet songs, perhaps it’s because I was in a soft mood when I made them?... I am different from the other band members. (laugh)
Here we go. (laugh)
Aoi: Well, I’m the only one who has an image of white in the GazettE. (laugh)
Reita: But, I think you are darkest!? (laugh)
