Dance, dance, dance!

It's creeping towards Saturday night, no one's home, and I'm blasting this song at the top of my speakers:

Joker - X Japan

I'm investigating X Japan now, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] mayflo and this song: I.V.. It's at the tail end of Saw IV, a movie I wouldn't see on a bet, but that my son saw twice. So now he's playing it all the time too.

I wouldn't share this with him, but I appear to have a thing for .

Yoshiki

I wouldn't say I love X Japan as a whole, but the songs I do love, I really, really love. Dahlia is an awesome album; I'm not as keen on their earlier stuff, though there are a few songs I love to death there, too, like Endless Rain, Kurenai, Say Anything, and Weekend.

I have their entire discography translated here, btw. (Though about half of it is in English to begin with.)

I love the fast beat - they remind me of early English Beat or even Larrikin Love - punk. And visually, I really like the look of these visual kei bands.

Thanks for the translation link! *bookmarks*

I'm following your music posts closely and picking up a lot of info from you, so thanks so much for that, too. Now that I'm more active in the yaoi world, I have a much more focused interest in things Japanese.
