Yehh, does anyone know any good ones? Cuse I've been looking for some new ones to listen to, I got into it because of Guitar Freaks, Road of Major - Taisetsu Na Mono and Asian Kung-Fu Generation, but I never really actually looked for some good ones xD.
Can anyone recommend some Jrock bands for meh?

Most of the visual kei bands like An Cafe and Plastic Tree are pretty good. If you're looking for something heavier though theres always Dir En Grey and Malice Miser 3nodding Then there's The Pillows who are pretty much legendary in Japanese music.

It's hard to say which good bands to refer you too because really it depends on your taste XD;;

Well if you like the V-Kei kind of bands, there's alice nine., Gazette, Lolita23q, SID, etcetc...8D;;

Phantasmagoria, 12012---basically all the bands in Under-Code Production, and then in PSC ^^;
Just look around 8D

Well it's kinda hard to look around, when I don't know where to start haha.
But I like styles like Asian Kung-Fu Generation, Road of Major and The Pillows.
Not hardcore stuff, I've heard Dir En Grey and Miyavi.
I'm trying to lean more towards calmer Jrock stuff.

I've always heard about Visual Kei, but what exactly is it? xD

Visual Kei is a movement in Japanese pop culture usually characterized by androgyny(most cases men looking like women) and outrageous looks. Check out a song by Plastic Tree named Harusaki sentimental or Itoshii Hito by miyavi if you want some calmer songs.

Oh and btw, what're the differences between Visual Kei and Oshare Kei?
PostPosted: Thu Aug 09, 2007 3:36 pm


The difference between Oshare and Visual kei is like...Oshare kei has a more...Brighter look and music. Like An Cafe when Bou was still in the band. Visual Kei is more like...bands like The GazettE, Kagrra, Alice Nine,Ect.

also some really good bands are SmILE,An Cafe,Gazette,Dir en Grey, Phantasmagoria, Panic *Ch, AILE, SID, Naitomea, Ayabie, 176biz, ScREW, UnsraW, SuG, Alice Nine, BRANCH, Re:Make,and シリアル⇔NUMBER. I'll tell some more later ^_^.
