Recommendations to similar JROCK artists [inside]

[tin-can-man]

Hey,

I'm looking for some recommendations from you all to other J-Rock bands similar to:
gazette
alice nine
dir en grey

though they do not have to be visual kei.. just the sound of the music.. more so to the first two bands listed =)
any replies would be much appreciated

176BIZ is very similar to alice nine., and the more recent songs of 12012 are similar to the GazettE. You also might like ACID (they did the theme song for D-Gray Man), and MUCC. As for something similar to Dir en grey, D'espairsRay is good, as well as Sadie, UnsraW, and Girugamesh. I just listed my favourite bands, but there are many others out there...you should give some a try!
