LadyInTears: X japan is from 80s right?
the 80's X Japan was known as X, which was more of power metal,ballads,hard rock, with different and diverse musical styles, but over the years, with changes in the lineup and hide's death, and a less competent bassist, and as they got more popular, their musical direction of course became mainstream, more pop rock and thus, the later albums have more of a modern rock. eg, songs like rusty nail and I.V. have lost the indie feel, nevertheless, their compositions still are fantastic, and they became the first asian artist to reach itune charts haha
