Yoshiki the 10/10 troll. There are people that have literally died waiting for this album to come out including a couple of X Japan members!

 I don't think this will be the album but who knows for sure. Hopefully not.

[Naaaaani 1173]

Why not "I am X"?

Fucking this.

I get how this is "funny" to call this the new album, but can the people really thinking it chill a bit? There is also "original motion picture soundtrack" on the cover.

I assumed that nobody actually thought that was true.

[Kiyoharu is God 283]

It's the same songs for like 30 years excluding La Venus.  Good songs (at least the non ballads) but holy shit record something new. They have like 30 albums of compilations and live recordings of the same 20+  songs. Unreal.

[Takadanobabaalien 3607]

Can't wait to hear that new song kurenai! What's that all about huh!! Heard from ppl who attended their gigs in Japan that it's amazing

Yoshiki the drama queen.

 

 

[Biopanda 2675]

Still working on the soundtrack to a movie that came out a while ago? What the heck is there left to do...

[jon_jonz 885]

Hahahahaha.

Bitch, working on what ?

Songs you composed 30 years ago ?

Don't be ridiculous.

[Hakari 282]

Man this is starting to get hard to stomach. 

[IGM_Oficial 1964]

"JAPANESE DEMOCRACY" IS FINALLY BEING RELEASED, YAY

[Takadanobabaalien 3607]

he stayed up 90 hours popping pringles and eating yoshiki curry. he's not fooling us.

[carddass 273]

He worked 90 hours for what?!?
Sure, La Venus is a new recording but Without You was probably in the can for quite a while now. The rest are just the same-old same-old.

I've thrown out these numbers before but here's X Japan's output through what I've grouped as their major recording / releasing moments:

1987-1991: 25-30 songs: Vanishing Vision, Blue Blood, Jealousy, Art of Life (The last one was written / recorded in 90 and 91 but released later of course)
1992 -1997: 11 songs or so: Dahlia + The Last Song
1998-2017: 10 songs or so. I've included their hiatus years since Yoshiki recycled a few Violet UK songs for X Japan

Depending on how you look at it, releases and songs are getting less and less as more time goes on. If and when this new album comes out, that's it. X Japan as we know it will just be a live act milking the fan's wallet's dry.

And if you really want to look at it, their most productive period was when X was a band with everyone contributing (87-91). Basically as soon Taiji got kicked out, they became X Japan and Yoshiki became a mega diva, the band as a whole stopped functioning properly as a recording artist.
