Contents
Dir En Grey made their earliest releases as an independent band with Free-Will, eventually signing a temporary deal with Warner Music Japan. Dir En Grey's earliest releases were self-produced, however they worked with a producer, X Japan drummer Yoshiki Hayashi, for a series of five singles preceding Gauze.
With the release of Macabre, Dir En Grey began to release cooperatively between Firewall Division, a subsidiary of Free-Will, and Sony Music Entertainment Japan. In 2005, Dir En Grey signed to the European label, Gan-Shin. The following year, they would release in the United States under Warcon Enterprises and Fontana Distribution, while being managed by Free-Will's American branch. On both foreign labels, the band's initial release was Withering to Death., and followed by The Marrow of a Bone. Their seventh album Uroboros is planned for both a European (Gan-Shin) and American release (The End Records).
Dir En Grey have made only one release on their independent label, Free-Will, since the major label debut; they released their music video compilation, Average Psycho through the independent label due to graphic content, not allowed by Sony.
