kuyashii 124 Posted September 15, 2018 The worst thing about this whole album fiasco is that we already heard pretty much 90% of the songs. IIRC the only tracks we haven't heard yet are "Rock Star" or whatever it was its name and "Kiss the Sky" aka "OooOOOOoooooooOOOOohh" (at least not on its entirety). 1 Jigsaw9 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeus 7997 Posted September 15, 2018 I saw a ten minute video and immediately lost interest. I don't need reasons not to hate YOSHIKI. I need this new album to come out so I can stop caring about this band in its entirety. How did LUNA SEA have a whole revival and YOSHIKI can't crank out a single album? 2 clow_eriol and platy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D’erlanger came back and released, what, six albums? Dead End and Luna Sea both released two. And they’ve all been back together about as long as X Japan has been revived. That video is hilarious by the way. All of that guy’s jrock content is. Just to hear him butcher every single Japanese word and name. Not exaggerarion, in his Gazette video he pronounces Uruha “unroo”. 1 kuyashii reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kuyashii 124 Posted September 15, 2018 Man, what really saddens me is that if this album come out someday, it will be definitely their last as X. It would take another 20 years gap (plus 10 years of just making it) for them to do another one. They're like what, on their mid 50s? Plus, everyone knows that everything points to a trainwreck. It couldn't be a worse final chapter for a band with such importance as X Japan. I don't think you can blame the non-Yoshiki members though for the direction things took though. Maybe for still being associated with him or maybe for refusing to call Yoshiki out? I think they are all doing well with their solo careers and other projects. Especially Toshi, the musicians he plays with are always really good and the setlists are on-point. 1 Furik reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At this point, X JAPAN is YOSHIKI and his not so subtle misuse of pronouns confirms it. 1 platy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kuyashii 124 Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) I want to believe the reason it's taking so long for the album to come out is because they had to plant the trees to get the wood they made their instruments of Edited September 15, 2018 by kuyashii Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My personal favorite is “Unroo”, which is how he pronounced Uruha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
