D'espairsRay... I've seen them live twice. I love their sound, and they're all good looking fellows as well 8]

I think they're even better live than recorded; much more energy, and Hizumi still sounds good (I guess since he's a nonsmoker, his voice isn't in as much danger of dying out during the shows despite all the screaming-singing). When I saw them the second time, I ended up in the second row moshpit, and (fangirl moment, forgive me) I got to touch Hizumi's white leather snakeskin pants, since he came so close to the audience. He also dove into the crowd. It was amazing. My friend got plenty of digicam pics from the show, if anyone wants me to see (they're from February 2006, though, not very recent).
