Members Renfield Posted January 4, 2009 Members Share Posted January 4, 2009 A friend just introduced me to this pretty cool metal band from Japan. I cann't understand a word he's saying, but it's got some good grooves and riffs all the same. To me it's somewhere between SOAD and Soulfly.

Check this one out after that, it's the same band. Give this one a chance, the song goes all over the map. And I get the impression the outfits were more for the video than how they'd normally dress at the start.

Members Zebra Posted January 4, 2009 Members Share Posted January 4, 2009 That first song is actually the opening theme to an anime I watched. From the subtitles I can tell you, at least translated, their lyrics are really stupid. Some of that song was in English, actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And so were Rammstein's lyrics, but most people licked them up any way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zebra Posted January 4, 2009 Members Share Posted January 4, 2009 After watching the second video, the song and video heavily references the anime I was talking about earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members t3ch Posted January 4, 2009 Members Share Posted January 4, 2009 I actually dig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Renfield Posted January 4, 2009 Author Members Share Posted January 4, 2009 I actually dig. I listened to about 10 songs last night, at least half them were live. I am really hooked on it. I BT'd all their albums earlier. The older stuff is definitely more Jap-pop, but still edgey and cool, but the later stuff is great. It's like metal for kids with ADHD. And that band is sick tight live, like holy frack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Renfield Posted January 4, 2009 Author Members Share Posted January 4, 2009 I have a friend that moved to Japan to be a skate shoe designer. I bet he's right into these guys. I may have to visit him this summer. [YOUTUBE]WY2UPojpIyc[/YOUTUBE] In some live vids, the guitarist is using a Roland Jazz Chorus. Must be running a Pod into it, or it's a clean/dirty split of some kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
