While they may not be headlining this time around, DIR EN GREY will be going on another North American tour, supporting English band Asking Alexandria on The Still Reckless Tour 2012.

Along with AA and Diru, rock bands Trivium, I See Starts, Motionless In White, and The Amity Affliction will also feature on the tour. So far, only the first leg of the tour is listed, meaning if your city isn’t listed yet, there may still be a chance The Still Reckless Tour 2012 will be heading your way, as the second leg will add dates in the Northeast US and Canada.
