SHE'S RIGHT!!!!
Do you not pay attention?!?!? (not being mean)
The WHOLE REASON S.K.I.N was EVEN THOUGHT OF was to bring J-Rock to AMERICA!!!!!

I believe somewhere on the JRR site it says "S.K.I.N was created with America in it's sight"

Oh, And Camui, I hate to burst your bubble, but JRR stated that there is NO official website/forum for S.K.I.N, so far, they are ALL fan made!

All the infomation I've seen so far tells me that SKIN is more of a project than a band. Gackt had clearly stated in a TV interview several months ago that the goal of SKIN was to show to the Western world the state of contemporary Japanese rock music. So, I think that we probably shouldn't expect SKIN to exist for a long time. I hate to disappoint the non-Japanese fans of these four guys, but most rock fans here in Japan are not even aware that there is SKIN despite the huge popularity of each of its members.

Confused now. If she's right about them being in Japan now, then why would it be a America only thing?

And if you aren't being mean, then why shout at me? Your comment seems contradictory.


hide... always in my heart. I love you.... my pink spider....
My one wish is 2 meet Kyo. seriously.

-SKIN took big names in Japan (hence the mega-star lineup), and is bringing them to America in an attempt to make Jrock more popular here.
-It's called a project, not a band, so the chances of it lasting a long time are pretty low.
-They are probably in Japan because the LIVE in Japan, and they have individual things going on there.
-They don't have an official homepage yet, and may not ever, just because (as stated before) they are a project, not so much a band.

Hope that clears it up some.

well, since she pretty much said it for me.....
Ah, I see what you mean.... when you said "I don't now if she's right........" I thought you were referring to Camui..... sorry....
I was saying "She's right" toward the whole "It's official, they're debuting at AX and then touring America"....And how do you know I was "shouting", I could've just been emphasizing certain points?...

I don't believe it's been revealed yet...
They only have a couple of songs, and they're only rough copies at that.
It will be some time before we hear anything big from them I suppose...
Especially with YOSHIKI shooting for a fall tour with VIOLET UK (Check VIOLET UK myspace).

Don't take this the wrong way ro anything, but I'm getting REALLY tired of people saying "I miss hide....." or "X won't be the same withoput him...."
or anything along those lines...
The way I see it, was he was a valuable asset, he was good on the guitar, but they WERE X before him and they're STILL X without him...
And they don't need 10 guitarists to take hide's spot, bring back Jun or Taiji..
I've seen Taiji play the guitar, and he's REALLY good..
I believe hide has been quoted saying "Taiji is the BEST guitarist in X"

I hope they come to the Northern Kentucky/Ohio area!!!!!

Ya, ya, I know it must get tiring to hear.
And X is still amazing without him, and I don't think they are any less without his presence.
I just miss him as a person, and musician who did alot for VK.

Anyway, we'll probably have to wait quite awhile before we see SKIN anywhere. You have to admit the AX performance was a bit raw.
