How awesome would that be eh ? I'd absolutely love to hear properly produced/mastered versions of their early days, pre-Sony. They have enough known material to make a full album.. That'll never happen but one can dream

I bet there actually are some good quality recordings of these old tunes. For example Feel me Tonight they played on the Vanishing Vision tour

I own a lot of old X Tapes. Someday I have to digitalize them.

My favourite of this are is "Feel Me Tonight"

Fantastic!

It reall is! And it shows more and more how important the old X songs are. At least to me 

This may be nitpicky and please let me know if it is but I always considered the Taiji era songs to be old X Japan songs or to be technical the pre Vanishing Vision songs. Art Of Life is my personal favorite X song to be clear.

I meant the songs before reunion. Or even before Dahlia.

Unfortunately, I don't know anyone besides my own 3d printer, but it's only one color.

Do you have some pictures of your work?

Hi,

haven't heard that cover before, so thanks for that.

Rose of Pain is my favorite song of X. If anyone asks me about X I just send this song over and after listened to it, everyone will understand 🙂

Hi LEMONedME,

I just checked the discord and it's working fine for me. But I'm not an Admin/Mod over there. Maybe Hatsor or Kasumi (both Admins at XFF and Discord) can help you.

Sorry

General chat / Re: Will X return?

« on: November 20, 2021, 05:05:46 PM »

And here I just discovered X a few months ago. How disappointing :/

Hey akina!

I feel you, sis/bro/...!

But maybe we can help you to enjoy your ride through X and the crazy world of these japanese extroverted guys 😎

There is a lot to discover and I'm sure it will take you at least until 2024 when you finished everything. So, there is a lot more you can looking forward to :-)

And if you have any questions, feel free to ask. We are a very a kind community and mostly only harsh on the members itself, especially Yoshi-kun. But that said, only bcs there are so much emotions in Xs music. We love every member. Even the ones, nobody ever heard of as Hally, Jun etc... :-)

WTF did I just wrote? Sometimes I think my brain 🧠 stops working. Corrected the grammar a bit

« on: October 29, 2021, 12:06:10 AM »

Honestly, I doubt we will see X Japan anytime soon. Some fangirls (sorry for that) are keep telling me that it's because of covid. But obviously they miss the point that it all stopped before covid. Also Yoshiki is recycling his old songs and claims it's a new one (for example the 9/11 song). Which - in my opinion - is not a move that let me hoping for any X Japan activity.

I mean, I've been in Wembley, London what should've been the record release party. It was postponed for a whole year. And even that is 5 years ago!

I lost all hope in the band. The band is dead. For me at least at that moment. I don't like Yoshikis newer songs. And I don't like Toshis songs. I'm just a metal head with electronic bits.

And yes, I would love to have a proper studio recording of the best song after their reunion (o/c imho), Kiss The Sky. Have I ever mentioned, I didn't know the song until Wembley? I heard it for the first time on this concert. I was completely overwhelmed. Even Yoshiki did a mistake on the drums in the beginning, which was clearly hearable.

Yes, Yoshiki should end X Japan with a big bang. And as I said many times before, just let another drummer play so Yoshiki could concentrate completely on the piano (and also take care about his health).

I always think about how long we can keep the forum up and running, too. But this is another story.

Back to topic:

Will X return? I doubt it.
