May 4, 2009

Japanese rockers X JAPAN debuted a brand new song entitled "Jade" during their two-night stint on May 2-3 a the Tokyo Dome in Tokyo, Japan.

Professionally filmed video footage of the "Jade" performance from this past Saturday (May 2) can be viewed below. Also available is a short clip from Japanese TV of X JAPAN mainman/drummer Yoshiki in the studio recording "Jade".

X JAPAN cancelled several concerts last year after Yoshiki underwent medical treatment at his home in Los Angeles to address his chronic disc herniation (also known as a "slipped disc") and tendinitis.

Yoshiki has previously had to take extended time off due to his condition, spending half a year in recovery in 1990 and nine months in 1996.

X JAPAN's influential lead guitarist Hideto "Hide" Matsumoto committed suicide in May 1998.
