The main focus is on full reports of the Yokohama Arena performances of X JAPAN and BABYMETAL, as well as a look back at past Tokyo Dome performances in the run up to X JAPAN's Tokyo Dome performance, an expanded cross-review of all albums, and more. In line with the upcoming 'XDAY', this is the biggest feature in the history of 'Headbang' that will be easy to understand for both metal fans and X JAPAN beginners.
And to express our deepest sympathy and gratitude to MOTORHEAD's Lemmy, who passed away suddenly on December 28th last year, we've put together a special tribute to him! The back cover... well, one of the double covers is, naturally, to Lemmy Kilmister!
In addition, starting with "Metal of the Year 2015" chosen by 100 artists, writers, and metal fans from various fields, the first installment of "Headbang" for 2016 is packed with the same excessive energy and content as ever, making it hard to believe it's a spinoff!
