New fan in UK!

Hey everyone, just wanted to share my experience finding X Japan late last year.

I’m a huge rock/metal fan and was trying to find something new to listen to. I came across an article which listed a few metal epics and sure enough Art of Life was on there. It may be an understatement when I say my mind was blown. I listened to this song on repeat for weeks without any thought to listen to anything else they have released.

I even wrote down the song order of how I got into them. It was Art of Life, Silent Jealousy, Rusty Nail, Endless Rain, Jade then Week End.

Now, after several months of listening to them regularly I can honestly say they’re now one of my favourite bands. What an incredible group of musicians.

It sucks that I have only discovered them now they’re gone (again). What a thrill it must have been to see them live.

When did you first hear them? What was the first song you heard? Please share your experiences!
