YOSHIKI of X JAPAN said on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, that the band's album "Requiem" will be released, though fans may have to wait about another year. He posted the message on the 5th.
"To all my precious fans, yes, I will definitely release 'Requiem,'" he wrote. "There is still a lot I need to do, and it might take about another year…"
He said he is working on fashion, film, wine, champagne and music, and wants to give "Requiem" the time and affection it deserves. "From this month, I'm also going to make more time to take care of my health," he added.
YOSHIKI also said he plans to make an announcement around November 20. "Look forward to it! Thank you for waiting for me, and for always supporting me!" he wrote.
