After an exhausting tour in Japan and abroad to promote their eighth album, "DUM SPIRO SPERO," the Japanese rock band Dir en Grey took a hiatus. A year and a half later, on December 19th, 2012, they unveiled their single "RINKAKU" accompanied by a hand-drawn music video, a collaboration with animator Keita Kurosaka. Unlike their previous collaborative effort with Kurosaka on the notorious "Agitated Screams of Maggots" music video, this video is comparatively less disturbing and gruesome.
