X-Japan, anyone?

Postby Blue Murder » Mon Mar 02, 2009 12:54 am

X-Japan is some of the most amazing music I've ever heard. It's pretty much speed metal, except Toshi sings in Japanese most of the time. The drummer, Yoshiki, kicks ass and is known for having a portion of the concert dedicated to a drum solo [one in 1992 was 17 minutes!] They also did one of the songs in the 20-bonus-song pack for Rock Band 2 [called I.V.]

Without further ado, here's some of their songs [videos for them.]

I.V.

X [live, real song is about 6 minutes]

Week End [I was doing this for drums]

Rusty Nail [actually the studio version intercut with video of them live]

Drain [weird video]

I love these guys. Too bad the guitarist, Hide, died.
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear.
You are someone else,
I am still right here.

I don't know why, I think this is genetically implemented in me, but I never, NEVER, NEVER liked Japanese stuff when it comes to rock/pop/everything :scared:

The only thing in music I love from them is their classical masterpieces, often created for video games (Nobuo Uematsu and Michiko Naruke FTW :tongue: ).

Sweet. Have you done Rusty Nail? I was planning to do that for March's Guitar competition. Or Dahlia. Or Scars. Or Drain.
