I believe it just folded tbh. Yoshiki had a few Western bands signed to it in the early 2000s that just never really went anywhere and then he stopped signing artists in general. He was focusing on VUK predominantly. Then I think it stayed open primarily for VUK's album that Yoshiki wanted to release. Then X regrouped. They released IV under Extasy but when they signed to EMI I guess it just became pointless to have an independent label open, what with no one on it. I don't know what type of licensing fees and all that Yoshiki would have been paying for no reason, keeping an empty label alive while signed to a major one.

We are not trying to keep the legacy—we are trying to move forward, so our sound is going to change. I’m ready to be criticized, for example by fans saying "you should rather be this style." I’m ready for it, I’m okay with any concept of criticism-Yoshiki
