So what are your favorite X Japan albums/singles? Luckily I posted the album info on the main site before I lost everything on the forums . I have to say Blue Blood is probably thier best studio album they ever did. It is a perfect balance of rock and ballad in my personal opinion. The Last live was thier best live, hands down.

Albums... AH! My favorite was the ballads. All of their tear jerking and heart tugging songs. It was the first Cd of X-Japan music that I owned because I first fell in deep love with them from the song 'Forever Love'.
As far as singles go, the ART OF LIFE was pretty great. 30 some odd minutes long with Yoshiki throwing himself violently on piano keys... I was impressed, and entertained to say the least. ^ ^

Art if life was long enough for an entire album. Great great song. The live version is even better, I have it on DVD.

I agree with Oro-chan and leviathan on Blue Blood. I must admit, it's one of the best albums that they released. I managed to get Percival to buy a copy of Blue Blood....it's just that good.

Snap City... My first post in the X Japan section...
But yeah, I really like Blue Blood the most (I have the other albums on my computer so I can compare). I'm just a sucker for double-picking madness. Hide~

Haha, doncha just love it when the guitarists switch off soloing? Hells yeah! EKKUSU!! I find that Pierrot tends to do that too...and even Naitomaa. Hrm....but yeah, I can listen to Blue Blood on permanent loop. After all, the first songs I ever listened to from X was from the album (Blue Blood, Endless Rain). Forever Love was what took my Jrock virginity away however ^_~
