Can't believe nobody has said x-japan yet...



back then I would have flooded this whole thread with X Japan :)

Back to topic, Asian Kungfu Generation is GOOD. Got to know them while watching Bleach anime and i enjoy The Pillows alot.

Cagnet, not a japanese band, but they debuted in Japan doing soundtrack for a popular tv drama.

Luna Sea deserves a mention if there's X Japan

Moi Dix Mois...Mana is godly.

Lastly,
Hizaki Grace Project, this is my favorite now and very underrated

Hey Fenderman, do you know Nico Touches the Walls?
I'm pretty sure you'll like them.. They're not my favorite band or anything, but the members are a friends friend, so I feel like supporting them.
If you like pillows, check them out.

LOVE Toe

One of the few post rock bands I really get into

 

Here are some vids of my favorite Japanese band, Dir en Grey. They're getting really popular nowadays. This song is off their second album, which was very experimental. Very poor quality, so it loses a lot of its effect making it seem a bit boring, but one of my favorite songs of theirs

Here's their song Obscure off the Vulgar album. They got a lot more hardcore obviously, but still sounded like Dir en Grey.

Also anyone into 9mm parabellum bullet? If so, are you disappointed with their new stuff too?

 

Some more Japanese bands/musicians I like: midori, melt-banana, Merzbow, tokusatsu, rin to{censored}e shigure, zazenboys/number girl, tokyo jihen, toddle, supercar, swarm's arm, sports, MOT, pegmap, maximum the hormone, te', kagrra', eastern youth, Geinoh Yamashirogumi

 

I'm sure I mentioned a bunch of those already, but it'd be nice to revive this thread

Also I like a few other cheesey visual kei bands >

Big fan of 9mm Parabellum Bullet.

 

I would say I like their newer stuff more than their older stuff though.

 

Termination is probably my favorite album by them. I really love the 35min live track on the Discommunication EP too though. Supernova/Wanderland didn't dissapoint either.

I guess by new stuff I meant supernova/wanderland

So I guess thats not much to be disappointed with...

Wanderland seems to be growing on me, but I hate Supernova

And actually I liked the termination cd a lot more than their older album/eps

 

So basically, ignore most of that post
