Coachella 2018 will mark the dramatic return of the band’s creative leader and drummer, YOSHIKI, after artificial disc replacement emergency surgery last May. This will be his first major concert with X JAPAN since the group headlined SSE Wembley Arena in London last March.
X JAPAN has sold over 30 million albums, singles and videos combined, and has sold out Japan’s 55,000-seat Tokyo dome a record 18 times. WE ARE X, the documentary film about the band, was called a “fascinating and assured documentary” by the New York Times, winning awards at the Sundance and SXSW Film Festivals followed by theatrical premieres in over 20 countries and a worldwide chart-topping soundtrack.
X JAPAN is currently in the studio completing their first full-length album in over 20 years, now set for release in 2018.
