"We Are X" to Premiere in Los Angeles with Q&A Session with Yoshiki and Director Stephen Kijak

X Japan is Japan’s most prominent rock band - this statement is not debatable. Having been around since the early eighties, they were the pioneers for a beloved genre now known as ‘visual kei,’ alongside other bands such as BUCK-TICK and LUNA SEA. Several decades later, the band is still very much relevant, selling out massive venues worldwide.

Now, the rock juggernaut even has a documentary regarding the course of their career, premiering all over the world. The film, entitled We Are X, is slated to begin showing in Los Angeles on October 21.
 
As shown in the trailer, the film features YOSHIKI’s depiction of the band’s pride and hardships, including the loss of former member Hideto Matsumoto. Several other musicians give their testimonial of X Japan, including Marilyn Manson and Gene Simmons from KISS.

The premier night will even feature a guest appearance and Q&A with YOSHIKI at the Nuart Theater, alongside director Stephen Kijak. The talk sessions will last from the 21st to the 23rd, with the final screening being on the 27th, though YOSHIKI will only be there on the first night. Advanced tickets are available, though don’t expect the availability to last long - get yours before the event sells out!
