Anyone else a fan of Japanese music?
I'm not sure if there's any other thread like this, and if there is, I apologize.
I just love Japanese music (J-rock, J-pop, Visual Kei, anime, traditional, etc), and I'm almost certain there are people out there like me. Let's discuss and recommend our favourite songs? I'll start. A few of my current favourites are: Doubt & Trust - Access Anata ga Koko ni Iru Riyuu - Rie Fu Actuate Eden - Phantasmagoria Regret - Hoshimura Mai Birth - D Moral no Soushiki - Angela Aki I'm always looking for new music to listen to, so do pimp your favourites! :) |
My favorite bands are:
Miyavi- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XudLFGcb2UM Dir en Grey- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cG-_HekZ7k8 Plastic Tree- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTqhhgNN8-w And other bands like Gackt, Malice Mizer, the Gazette, etc. etc. :] |
Ah, Miyavi. I like his image and style, but I can't say I'm fond of his singing. That's one of the few Dir en Grey songs I don't mind. One of their latest, Glass Skin, is pretty good too. Plastic Tree is new to me. I like them so far. XD
Oh, I love Gackt. XD" I prefer Moi Dix Mois to Malice Mizer though. Any songs to recommend from the Gazette? I heard a song or two from them, but wasn't too impressed. Maybe I just heard the wrong ones..? :) Speaking of VK though, I like Kagrra, and Abingdon Boys School (although I'm not sure I consider them VK). XD" And I really hope SKIN releases an album soon! |
ME i love them lol
|
I love J-Rock and Visual-Kei. Honestly I'm not entirely sure what the actual defined difference is, so if you know I'd love it if you'd explain. :] Anywho, my favorite songs: Versailles "Zombie" (video made by me) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deTJNN6iMLs Pierrot "Yuuyami Suicide" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6A8uCCCHHpY Ali Project "Boukoku Kakusei Catharsis" Ali Project ~ Boukoku Kakusei Catharsis Angelo "He Is A Monkey" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GI1TkfP7H-0 [Yes the lead singer for Pierrot and Angelo are the same man, fyi] |
Of course there's people who like japanese music, it's so main stream nowadays lol : D
and yes, i like some j-rock too. Because i like rock, and the japanese is no different im sorry girls : D (well okay that's different that they look like girls haha) |
I like Japanese music as well. Pierrot would have to be my favorite band and my favorite song by them is Sarubia:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rDJRK_uXHI Visual Kei-isn't that a form of J-Rock that relies on elaborate costumes and stage antics? Kind of like Glam, but in Japan? |
Quote:
Woo! Another Pierrot fan. :D Too bad they're not a band anymore. Do you like Kirito's new band, Angelo? |
Quote:
Oooh! Have you heard of LM.C? |
To be different, my favorite Japanese band is ScReW.
I also really like Lucy (both Vis-Kei, and the Punk band.) Though, I think my heart would have to go to BLOOD, because I just love Kiwamu. |
Well, the only japaneese music I've really listen to is X Japan and hide. They're pretty okay. I had an obsession with the song rocket dive by hide a while back :P
|
I loved X Japan, and Sexmachineguns. I never could get into hide's solo work. Though Pink Spider was kind of catchy.
|
Oh man, I love Jrock.
I mostly listen to Oshare Kei now. Bands like Antic Cafe, LM.C, SuG, Lolita23ku, Lupo Label, IROKUI, Ichigo69, Poitrine, Watashime SLUG. Etc. ;DDD |
I love Ichigo69! SuG is alright. (:
Anybody listen to NIGHTMARE? Not just because their song 'Alumina' that made Death Note? |
:O I love ajikan!! (asian kung fu generation)
Their songs have a lot of meaning to them and all kinds of different beats kinda:D |
Luenola lucky =3 i thought im the only one whose thinking that love the japanese music me alone. but im lucky that im not alone.. anyways, some of the bands you mention like access i do like them too. xD
specially yui and kanon wakeshima and kalafina im a big fan of them. same goes to Yuki Kajiura or fiction junction,flow,on/off,Dtechlife(forgot the spelling already) hearts grow, younha. and others many to mention. |
I really like Maximum the Hormone, they somehow have their own sound and energy in their songs ^^
And then I have a bit of songs from anime that I like: Inner Universe by Yoko Kanno Sanctuary by Utada Hikaru Evolution by Ayumi Hamasaki Heros come Back by Nobody knows And then the opening song from Elfen Lied (dunno it's name ^^' ) |
I like Gackt and L`Arc~En~Ciel. |
j-pop and j-rock are cool i cant understand most of the lyrics but the beat is awesome and up beat
|
Japanese music is pretty popular now. I've loved it for ages. :3
Recently, I've been listening to lecca, mihimaru GT, miliyah kato, fukuhara miho, so'fly and uematsu hidemi. :) They're all so good! |
@Kottori; I'm a fan of Nightmare. :3 I have to say that their Libido album was my favorite. <33 |
There are a numerous amount of artists that I love. I listen to pratically only that. And a few english/american bands and one chinese (I think) girl group called YUMMY YUMMY. They are really good. And their voices are just so adorable. Who here loves alan? She is kinda a new comer to the scene. Her huge hit with alot of people is the song for the movie Red Cliff, it is just beautiful, you could cry listening to it (the first one that is).
|
I love listening to Japanese Music, Because well, I can understand it.
And it is alot more poetic then pathetic tanslations. But Maximum the Hormone.. All sounds like english (misheard lyrics lol) Really now, and I was able to Meet Becca because of my love for Japanese music. But she is American, but popular in japan, You should check out Becca X3 |
