About ten undisclosed guitarists were to fill in for the late hide during concerts. An X Japan reunion was officially confirmed on June 4, 2007, with Yoshiki announcing a tour, as well as a new single (a re-recording of the song “Without You”, originally from Yoshiki’s 2005 solo album Eternal Melody II) to be underway and that he was in talks with Heath and Pata, regarding their participation. In March 2007, Toshi announced on his website that he and Yoshiki had recently resumed working together, stating that a “new project” would commence soon. However, a new wind has begun to blow for X JAPAN, as Toshi has stated his desire for a reunion for the 25th anniversary of the band’s founding. While authorities deem the guitarist’s death a suicide, several of hide’s friends and colleagues stated that they believed it an accident, this was supported by the fact that there was no suicide note. X Japan split up in 1997.įour months later, May 2, 1998, Hideto “hide” Matsumoto, X Japan’s lead guitarist, was found dead, hanged with a towel tied to a doorknob in his Tokyo Apartment. At the end of the year, they had their final concert. Rather than go on without Toshi, the following year X JAPAN announced it was breaking up. However, in 1996, after the release of their fifth and final album, DAHLIA, Toshi announced that he was departing from the band, for his own reasons - rumored to do with his wife disliking the band, his time commitment, and their performance of mostly sad, downbeat songs. This look, and their musical style of fast, driving metal, mixed with softer ballads, was the defining origin of today’s visual kei band. They used long, dyed hair and leather, along with makeup to make themselves shocking to the people who went to see them.

They garnished abundant support and fans across Japan with their outrageous dress style. Once Yoshiki and Toshi recruited bassist Taiji and guitarists hide and Pata, the band began moving on the indie circuit. The band consisted of Toshi (vocals), Yoshiki(drums, piano, composer, lyricist), hide (guitar), Pata (guitar), and Heath (bass), and Taiji (bassist) until 1997 when they disbanded. Their early music was speed metal, but later on they acquired a more symphonic metal sound. Besides being one of the first Japanese acts to achieve mainstream success while on an independent label, the group is widely credited for pioneering the visual kei movement. Formed by childhood friends Yoshiki and Toshi in 1982 at Chiba, Japan, X was originally founded to play high energy rock music. X (later changed to X JAPAN in 1992 to avoid confusion with the American punk band X) is arguably one of the most influential bands in the history of the Japanese music scene.
