And what would be the artistic output of this "new" project? Nothing, because that's what YOSHIKI produces musically. NOTHING, just like S.K.I.N.. They haven't produced a new album that's a decade in the making, with three deadlines that have come and passed by now. They haven't remastered their old albums to give us anything in the meantime. The album's been 90% done in perpetuity. And somehow he has the nerve to sell $300 tickets to an event where they play nothing new.
 
I have half a mind to lock this topic because this album is never coming out, but I enjoy the salt too much.

I don't know why but it feels like every single interview, review or article written about X Japan or Yoshiki in particular in the west are a bought shill piece ghost-written by Yoshiki himself. The amount of critical questions regarding the delay are always nil. 
 

I guess a guitarist falling sick is now legit reason to scrap the whole album, even though it was supposedly finished and the member returned to the band after recovering?
 
 
So either the album has 100 songs, which it better have after this long wait, or Yoshiki doesn't understand how percentage works. 
 
 
It's nice he's acknowledging that he doesn't care what fans want, he NEEDS to make his English CD because this is really all about him getting to mingle some more with C-list celebrities at baseball events. See also that the magazine claims it's an interview with the band, yet only Yoshiki seems to be interviewed.
 
Just disband already, this has been a train wreck for ten years by now.
 
 

they deprogrammed Toshi from his weird cult thing for THIS.....

Surprised to find Basic Channel here. Cheers!

The show was sold out btw

Emiru said that he didn't want to play this time, but they will play in July.
 
Also, they said that Emiru was the one who thought on this revival :O pretty surprising right?
He said he started hating visual kei but now he loves it. But he said he wouldn't do a visual kei band again. 

Look in the performance of 2018/05/06.

tanuki says every band will disband
tanuki says every bandman has a girlfriend / will get married / is married
tanuki says every bandman has an STD
tanuki says that all foreigners are stinky, have bad manners and shouldn't come to concerts
tanuki says a lot of things and sometimes it's right, sometimes it's partially right and sometimes it's wildly wrong
 
tbh if you can't read Japanese, I'd suggest not going on tanuki. There's so much slang and so many words that are used specifically for visual kei that translators will just botch it.
 
moreover you have to understand that more often than not people who are writing these things are people with a grudge taking advantage of how tanuki is anonymous. One person can write over and over pretending to be different people to make it sound more true. There are people who put their own name out there etc by themselves to get people to talk about them or to make others believe something (usually that they are "tsunagari"--have some sort of relationship with the band). 
 
the only reason to go on tanuki is for shits and giggles, not for reliable information

Someone on Tanuki posted that Yoshiki is going to give me 50% of his money for my birthday
