Originally named X, the group achieved its breakthrough success in 1989 with the release of their second album Blue Blood.

After three more albums, X Japan disbanded in 1997, but reunited in 2007.

They were formerly known for their excessively large hairstyles resembling fountains. As of 2007, the band has sold over twenty million records and over two million home videos. On 4 June 2007 it was announced the band would reunite with a new song released via digital download in January 2008 and live performances scheduled for March and May. (Source: AniDB) |
