Abingdon boys - Strength.Like the new beat they have

Asian Kung Fu Generation - Got me really into japanese punk rock.Esp, rewrite.

Amano Tsukiko - Koe,nice soothing and sad song.Really like it when they used it for fatal frame ending

[gsdmaniax]

Lol would you really call that J-rock???


Anyway currently, my favorite jrock artist is definitely abingdon boys school. What can i say ,TM Revolution + Band with pretty good technical skills = <3.
My old favorite was Gackt but all he has been rather inactive until recently.

Yeah how is Exile even J-rock lolll

For me i guess its....between MUCC or Dir en Grey
I never actually found a song that I didn't like with MUCC and the vocals are amazing. And for Dir en grey......well..they are Dir en grey

[Analogman]

I like vocalists from bands like Yousuke Momono from monobright, because the way he sings and his fantastic live performances. Also, Takeshi Hosomi from ELLEGARDEN is a great artist and I like his fantastic English pronunciation.

[bowstead]

I have to say X Japan.

Some of their songs are simply amazing. They got me into JRock years ago and I can't imagine my life without their music now.

My favourite JRock Artist/Band would be

One Ok Rock :: They produce really great music and they're fun people!!

Ellegarden:: Unbelivably awesome band!! Great English...I was so shocked to find a good english singing jap band the first time i found them...Still upset they broke up but i'm anticipating the new line up by er.....oops i forgot...hahaha

UVERworld:: OBSESSED WITH THEIR STUFF!!! ...but they're starting to sound kinda the same same over time..nonetheless i still adore their stuff...

MUCC:: I'm not sure why they're on my list...but i'm kinda interested that their music is very old school Jap Rock.. :3

that's it~

Tommy Heavenly6

Great unique vocals and catchy tunes to match. Also great when singing for the Brilliant Green.

THE PILLOWS, heard them on flcl like most people and their music had so much crazy range and depth back in the 90s and they continue to make freaking great new albums.

[amonch]

Miyavi definitely.

His acoustic style and his diversity.

I mean just look at his songs.most of them are inpsired by different genres but yet has a miyavi feel to them

[sandrick]

BUCK-TICK is... everything to me. Definitely my favorite band of all time. Sakurai Atsushi's voice is amazing. I love his solo album, as well~ <3 I love how BUCK-TICK's style changes with every new album, so each release has a different feel to it. I would die to see them in concert.

I also love 9mm Parabellum Bullet, Kiyoharu, and recently got into Abingdon Boys School.

I like Tatsuro from MUCC, though I didn't like band's music over the last two years ~_~
His voice is so strong and unusual, can't compare him with anyone else.

But, on second thought, I like female vocalists more, especially Yuu from Go!Go!7188. I just love this sound *_*

[hikikomorde]

I love Under Graph. I can't say that I dislike any of their songs. I find their songs to be relaxing.
I also like Remioromen. The singer's voice sounds so calming to me. =w=

[ethereal22]

There are so many good artists out there that I love it would be hard to pick just one. I guess it depends on my mood and since this is Jrock, I'd have to say...

My first love of jrock came through MUCC. I've seen these guys live 3 times and loved them all the more. They really go all out.

For solo artists, I'd say Miyavi. He plays around with so many different styles of music, there's always something new to appreciate.

Recently, I've gotten pretty addicted to GO!GO!7188. I found them through a friend's recommendation and have been listening since.

[Kyuubil]

I'm going to get *****smacked for this -- but Girugamesh, I found them on accident before the meme hit, someone had uploaded one of their albums when I went to look for something else and it caught my eye.

I like the mix of hard, dark vocals with more light-ish vocals... though the V-kei style is =/

[kazuki-kun]

I'll go for Yoshiki Hayashi of X-Japan.
He's one of the most talented musician I've ever known... aside from singing... xD

"WE ARE X"

[shkon]

First band that hook me up on jrock i guess is ELLEGARDEN
at first i thought it was another western band when they're singing english song.

After look through the profile i just found out wow.. a Japanese band...
Then the Ajikan's indie caught my attention few years back then I started to buy thier first album oversea 'Kimi Tsunagi Five M'
Btw Gotoh's face looks like me lol so yea... they hooked me up in j-music for nearly 5-6 years now.
