“Engrossing… an entertaining and potent portrait” – Indiewire
Under the enigmatic direction of drummer, pianist, composer, and producer Yoshiki, X Japan has sold over 30 million singles and albums combined and pioneered a spectacle-driven style of visual rock, creating a one-of-a-kind cultural phenomenon. We Are X is an astonishingly intimate portrait of a deeply haunted – but truly unstoppable – virtuoso and the music that has enthralled legions of the world’s most devoted fans.
