This comment may annoy some people, but, when you look at X's current style, in the way the members act and the style of their new songs/music videos. As in Yoshiki getting botex on his lip, tv appearences attending berlesc/female orientated fashion shows, wearing lipstick in music videos and then trying to shove his face into the camera with it (Jade pv opening) Toshi wearing this white fluffy dress on stage, the female singers in born to be free.

I don't know, I just think they're never going to make it in the U.S unless they get a harder image. Sorry if this post annoys people but I feel its true. Also everyone who's never heard of X but has heard of this stan Lee-Yoshiki the superhero comic are already thinking 'up his own ass, egotistical' and other things if his appearence in the comic is lipstick/eyeliner and other crap.

If they do well doing what they're currently doing, they'll probably get millions of fans, but they'll be 14 year old girl Twilight type fans.

Erm, no offence but who exactly do you think made up their Japanese demographic in their hey-day? Screaming 14 year-old girls.

Sure, their demographic in Japan now tends to be late 20's and middle-aged people, but that's only because their original fans grew up.

I don’t think they should change their style\image in order to fit to the U.S market or smth.. what matters whether or no they will make it in the USA. They have been one of the best bands for such a long time, and I’m sure they will have lots of fans in the U.S. and worldwide. And I don’t care about all those lipstick-eyeliner-fluffy-dresses things ^_-
I hope the new PVs won't resemble Twighlight though, lol

That was a fantastic article.

As much as I follow Yoshiki, thanks for bringing it here.

Man.. Who knows.  If this does happen, maybe these small but faithful internet forums and boards will be bombarded with people finally discovering good music.

Feels good, man. :)

Quite a few updates lately:


Sleeeeepy!!! ….. I stayed up all night recording and voting for the Grammys! How’s your New Year so far!

Sleeeeepy! But I’m going to record more tonight, uhhm I’m invited to go to the Golden Globes this Sunday. So I’ll be able to relax there! :)

久しぶりに日本語でつぶやきだ------!!!! 眠いよ~ :)(笑) (just saying that he hasn't tweeted in Japanese in a while and that he's sleepy)

LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!! And WE ARE ____!!!!!!!!!!!!

Europe tour announcement and the release date for the new album i wish.
But im sure it will be just something boring like, X Japan will play at ... Stadium in Sapporo on 24th and 25th of April, and nothing about the new album or the European tour.  :P

I think on an interview a few days ago, Yoshiki said that the tour dates/locations won't be announced before February. So I guess it don't be that.

Probably about the album or this fashion show thing...

AHH. And he had me all worried last night that it might be tour dates. XP Well, at least I might actually have MONEY by the time the dates are released.

Hopefully NYC is one of the places. ♥ I want to make it a point of going to the city at least once a year anyway, and what better way to spend a day in New York than an X Japan concert. :D

May I make some (not so) wild guesses about who that band member might be? -_- looking on who appears overseas and who doesn't, I have the impression that's actually pretty obvious...

well i can see the management's problems with yoshiki's plans, but really, I don't get what's so hard about playing overseas. every other japanese rock band can do it, too....! oO; (though I really hope they'll do better than luna sea in europe... )

..okay before i get carried away too far, i better stop now. :P

I really doubt that we will see X in Europe at least until September or maybe even not this year.
