Gauze (album)

Gauze (stylized GAUZE) is the first studio album released by Dir En Grey on July 28, 1999. It is the band's first full-length record. Five tracks were produced by X Japan co-founder Yoshiki Hayashi, all of which had been previously released as singles. The album was originally released on July 28, 1999 as a standard version with a thick CD case & 36 page booklet through Free-Will Records. An initial limited version was released on the same day, including a translucent red sleeve with a cloud pattern, 12 page picture booklet, a 36 page lyrics booklet, and the CD in a maxi-CD single case for a sticker price of ¥3,059 through East West Records Japan. The album was later re-issued as standard version only on October 31, 2001 through their new record label Firewall Division.

The lyrics booklet features two pages for each song; one features the lyrics, while the facing page features a picture and a small poem or verse, as a companion piece.

Famous quotes containing the word gauze:

    Slight are her arms, yet they have bound me straitly
    And left me cloaked as with a gauze of ther;
    As with sweet leaves; as with subtle clearness.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
