Definitely one of the most under-rated guitarists out there. Hizaki is by far on of the best guitarists you'll ever listen to, yet his popularity in the west is absolutely abysmal. Not because it's negative, but because people simply don't know who he is. In fact, They've only been to Canada 1 time in their whole career. I even cosplayed as Hizaki for Halloween last night in downtown Toronto surrounded by tens of thousands of people, and not a single person could identify my costume. I wish Versailles were more well-known here. I went to their only show here last November and I still can't believe just how good it was. This band is a real gem and I can not recommend them enough.

I live in Japan, he is not even know in here. (Also not Mana for ex). I play bass so I come across musicians quite often, the final result? I know much more japanese musicians that the average 25 japanese musician. Don't you think it's too much to ask for he to be known in Canada while he is not even really well known in Japan? Used to listen to Versailles A LOT in my teenage years. Now I really don't like it, musically its kinda meh for me. Liked HGP much more tbh. And for Teru I always preferred Aikaryu, those killer fast riffs.

Hizaki is amazing. And his character is the "princess" of the group. It's a visual kei thing. I love hearing him speak. That deep voice is fantastic paired with that pretty face. He's definitely underrated, as are most musically competent bands that aren't from America.

under rated at least in the US. Have to give credit to his duo Teru . These two together are the epitome of a guitar duo. The compositions are extremely technical, and in the genre of neoclassical metal . Quick measure changes, use of sweep arpeggios' are just some highlights.

​@Ch3ri0 I think in terms of overall technique they are fairly similar, but they are incredibly complimentary and help fill gaps in each other's playing. Teru has better tremolo and a slightly larger stretch and doesn't need to change position as often but can get a little sloppy live, while Hizaki can string skip like Paul Gilbert and his sweeps and alternate picking are cleaner and his vibrato is world class.

I can understand if people confuse Hizaki as a woman. But when I show people visual kei artists that do not cross-dress, they mistake them for women too, it's obvious for the 99% of them. I don't understand. Men usually have male characteristics in their face so it should be obvious. I think people are just not used to see men do makeup or dress differently than the norm.

For Hizaki, Jasmine, Mana etc I will give you a pass lol.

Thanks for another great video, your analyzes are damn good! Hizaki is my favorite guitarrist ever. Although Teru has an extremely good technique, the way that Hizaki can transmite those beautiful feelings through his guitar it's just perfect and amazing. I had the chance to see Jupiter live in 2015 and, beside being a awesome guitar player, he is so nice and good person. In signing autographs he was always smiling, saying "gracias" (thank you in spanish, I'm mexican lol) and giving hugs to whoever was asking. And of course I will never forget when, at the end of the live, he jumped into the audience just like a rockstar (with dress and everything xD). That day was unique also for the fact that after Jupiter it was the concert of Dir en grey lol. I fall in love with Diru that day too (they are so damn good live!) thanks to Jupiter and Hizaki, of course. I will see Versailles in September and I can't wait to see them again

The first time i listened to Versailles was during hide Memorial Summit (2008) and when revenant choir's solo began i knew i had found another duo (other than Pata-hide) that completes itself and is in total harmony. The "motifs" part was really interesting. i'm not a musician but sometimes i would get the feeling that some songs were somohow similar without being a "copy", so i just thought "well, same composer, same style". Now i know there's a reason and i'm going to hunt this motifs ahah

Hizaki is not over rated, by any means. Hizaki is amazing.He's always in the top 10, maybe even 5, in Japan. Usually the top 5 go something like this, (not in order) Hizaki, hide, Syu, Inoran, Takayoshi Ohmura. I like Ohmura a lot, and of course everyone loves hide. There are some videos out there of Syu, Inoran and Ohmura doing "battles". Hizaki is probably in the top 3, but a lot of critics blow him off because of the costuming of Versailles. Ohmura has a lot of outside recognition due to playing with Marty Friedman. Miyavi is also fairly popular. Would love to hear your opinion on any of the other top Japanese guitarist.
@PhoenixSplash
@PhoenixSplash 7 жыл бұрын
Me and some other people discussed whether or not to do a top 10 Japanese guitarist video. I think that would be pretty cool. I see all those names being on there. Syu is a freaking technical beast. I would say Hizaki is a really really good music composer who thinks about every instrument in his writing.

Loved the video! Btw, Versailles never disbanded (in the song Truth, they state that... and in their last live before the hiatus they said they were going to be back soon for sure, which they did) and the hiatus had nothing to do with KAMIJO wanting the solo carreer... also Jupiter has nothing to do with Versailles other than having 4 of Versailles' 6 members. About his character, all 6 members have characters in the band. Jasmine You was a witch lol

snakepitsam syu isn't really unique at all, and his guitar style is very common for a power metal and speed metal. i like galneryus but syu doesnt stand to , in other hand, ohmura might be the best japanese guitarist..

I learned about Hizaki back in 2009. You're late, bud. Also, check out Iron Chino from Iron Attack, Phantasmagoria, Galneryus and Dir en Grey before their "Vulgar" album. Shit, even Pierrot, SCISSOR and Psycho Le Cemu have some good stuff, but they're not really metal. I don't really know any current j-rock bands you weebs hear today. Also, realize that a lot of japanese have some strange obsession with french culture. Hizaki's music, wardrobe and the name Versailles show a blisteringly obvious example of this.

Hizaki is easily a masterclass composer and performer but doing it all while wearing a hundred pounds of satin and lace is really something else.

Yeah, he's really something. His melody writing is in the level of Santana and his technical skills are at the level of Pertucci. Together, it's a damn good mix.
