Just saw pictures of the special edition on facebook. I'm even more tempted ^^"
Waiting for the Japanese edition to arrive in the post. Didn't stop me grabbing La Venus and Without You on iTunes. Glad they didn't make them Album Only songs.

Hmmmm, I am not too sure what they will play.
Not including La Venus, it would be nice to hear at least two new songs we have heard before.
I think they will play Hero and Beneath the Skin tomorrow...I wonder if we will be hearing some form of Angel again?

I find this interview quite refreshing compared to the same questions over and over recently. And sounds like the interviewer did her research!
I like the snips of related music scattered throughout too.

Yea, I guess we just take what we can get! Looking forward for my CD to arrive next week where I can listen to La Venus and Without You on a decent stereo.
And I hope everyone who sees them on Saturday has an awesome time! I am excited about what the setlist will end up being like!

To say I am jealous of all of those that can attend this concert is an understatement...
And to those that will also be able to go to the signing at HMV the day before...WOW!

So, after the epic 90 (?) hour stint in the studio, Yoshiki just confirmed he has finished the recordings for the soundtrack. Put up a clip of Without You playing in the background, very nice.

« on: January 28, 2017, 05:33:27 AM »I think this "unplugged" version is the same which was on "The World".
Actually according to the press release about the soundtrack, both La Venus and Without You were recorded this year. o_O
I am really looking forward to hearing studio vocals on Without You. Although in saying that, the live recording included in "The World" compiliation were really good!

I reckon the third movement is after the piano section, so the last few minutes of the song?

Hmmm, that article also mentions a "We Are X" documentary soundtrack...is this going to be released or is this confusion with the new album?
If it is a release, my guess is it will be another compilation with La Venus added on at the end? Would be a nice tide over until the new album...
EDIT: Listening to the live Facebook interview Yoshiki did for Paste Magazine today, it looks like La Venus will be coming out as a single in February (the interviewer suggested the date as 02.02 and even Yoshiki didn't believe it would be that early!), the documentary soundtrack sometime in March, (maybe that is the X Day release?) and the new album is "on its way".

I have also wondered this. I have always assumed it was the guitar "noise", but it would be nice to get confirmation?

Kijak has replied to someone on twitter asking about a Japanese release with: "soon!!!".

Yea, I don't think an official English release will happen now. However, if X explode worldwide, there might be enough demand for it?

I am really anxious to see this documentary. I am hoping for a worldwide release, via any format, before the supposed X Day in March.
Nice to hear that they have recorded a new song for the credits. During the Summit last night, they played an acoustic version with Yoshiki on piano and Toshi.
Not too sure what I think of this song, will be good to hear a full studio version.
Side topic, it is quite excting / frustrating that there are snips of so many "new" ...("new"), songs floating around! Hero, Angel, Kiss The Sky, now La Venus...

Yes, I do wonder what the announcement will be...
EDIT:
Hmm, can't read Japanese but does this article mention that two classical concerts have been announced for NY next January?
