WE ARE X | FILM TRAILER
Watching that trailer made me feel so emotional. Hide was truly an icon for his time, and his legacy can still be felt in Visual Kei today.
It's great that the band is still carrying the torch and performing, especially after being in the business for more than 25 years. Much respect!
