I like asian kung fu generation, Gackt, Miyabi, Boa , and MANY others , liked Kat-tun>.< , oh gods this post is reminding me that there has been a lot of time since I listened to japanese music ( I've been listening a lot of taiwanese, time for a change!!!)
The Nightmare, T M Revolution, Pyschic lover, Janne Da Arc, MIKA NAKASHIMA. All of their songs are so cool + rock on!
I'm chinese too but most (probably about ~80%) of all my songs are Japanese. My favourite bands are The GazettE, Dir en grey, GLAY, Gackt, TM Revolution, NIGHTMARE.... My parent are very disappointed that my brother and I listen to a lot of Japanese music and not Chinese & English music. The funny thing is I don't even understand the language lol
hmm The gazette gackt mucc ^^ .... @ aakira your right Nightmare is great because of the sound track to Death Note ^^
if you're looking for japanese bands (not singers, but the ones with actual instruments in their hands, lol) two of my favourite are X-Japan and Glay. But there's also Luna Sea, Dir en Grey, L'arc en ciel...etc
Vidoll, Gazette, Girugämesh, Merry (Merri), Despairs Ray, Siva, Lynch is a pretty great band. There's more, but I can't think right now XD
