Yeah, only two right now, but I have an assortment of single songs from a bunch of J-rock bands from anime I've collected.

I hate to just repeat what everyone else already said, but... *sigh*
L'Arc~en~Ciel
GLAY
Gackt
To Destination
The Stand Up
HYDE

~Chippie
RyoSato
03-15-2006, 08:37 PM
Okay, how about bands like:
175R
EE Jump
GLAY (already mentioned but they are teh awesome)
PENPALS
Pizzicato Five
Porno Graffitti (yayyyyyy love)
Shaka Labbits
Ulfuls
and of course, the top selling band in Japan of ALL TIME, so good they're soon going to pass Elvis on the world music charts... B'z!!! B'z, how I love thee, let me count the ways~! Ah! But there are too many ways, so I'll just listen to Ai no Bakudan and rock and it will all be okay.
All of these bands need more fans here in the English speaking world, but ESPECIALLY B'z. SO weird that more people don't know of them since they are like... HUGE. O.o;

<3 ^__^ HYDE is hawt! L'Arc~en~Ciel all the way~
I also love Luna Sea and Dir en Grey right now. But L'Arc are just the best, there just isn't a single song from them that I dislike. Strange because HYDE's solo work doesn't appeal to me all that much, haha.

03-16-2006, 12:33 AM
I'm not a big fan of Jrock or Jpop, though I have heard of most of the names here. Gackt is the only one that I've really listened to, and he has a nice voice, but damn is he pretty :D

I don't know much of anything about Japanese music but I really like X Japan and Balzac. Years ago I listened to Speed and Utada Hikaru.
Purple
03-16-2006, 01:40 AM
Well, I listen to Indie J-rock bands, but they're not my favorite...
Iyashii
03-16-2006, 04:24 AM
I adore Janne da Arc to the ends of the earth, even if they're a bit poppish. Psycho le Cemu's videos make me happy in a way few other things can. And Ellegarden just amuses me with their English singing. XD

L'arc en ciel is about the brunt of the j-rock i've heard - the only songs I know by them are 'driver's high' gto opening and 'finale' ring 0 ending
I like the song pulse by mad capsule markets aswell though, other thn tht i'm fairly in the dark on j-rock

Shuu-chan
03-16-2006, 06:35 PM
T.M. Revolution, Miyavi, Gackt, Yasuaski Ide, Mikio Sakai, ORANGE RANGE, Asian Kung Fu Generation.
L'Arc~en~Ciel is my eternal favorite.
Some of Hyde's solo stuff is decent but it's mixed with plenty of crap, too. (this coming from a fangirl, but I have to be honest)
ditto with Gackt's solo stuff, but he needs to stop trying so hard to sell and publicize his work. his talent speaks for itself. all that (bad) publicity cheapens the good music.
Of course no self-respecting fan of Jrock doesn't like/respect XJapan. ^^ hide=<3
And Kagrra would be awesome...if they got a new vocalist. -_-;

I'd have to say The Michelle Gun Elephant.:cool:
Top three probably:
The Michelle Gun Elephant
The Pillows
Yellow Machinegun
:D
EDIT: Sheesh, I almost forgot to mention Beat Crusaders. :cool:
omnistry
03-16-2006, 08:14 PM
The Pillows - by far the best concert I've been to. Sawao is such a nice guy; and will listen to anything you say (even though he doesn't understand you:D ). Their new album -- My Foot -- is incredible!
noodles - opened for the pillows (and produced by Sawao). After their set I bought all their merchandise.
The Spunks - J-PUNK to the XXXTREME!!!!!!! Do the Bedroom Stomp!
Gito Gito Hustler - J-PUNK TO THE XXXTREME (only their women)!!!!
Guitar Wolf - whoever doesn't like them shall DIE!!!
STANCE PUNKS - they did the best Naruto theme (No Boy No Cry). Sorry AKFG fans. Speaking of which...
AKFG - awesome. Just awesome!
I can go on and on; but I think I've gone on too much already!
I'm in the process of training at my college radio station; and I plan on doing a show that plays mostly J-POP/J-ROCK/J-PUNK/J-RAP.
Oh; and Hyde's "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" for da win.

Durante
03-16-2006, 11:05 PM
You guys should really listen to Showtaro/Shoutaro Morikubo (Morikubo Shoutaro)! His heavy metal songs are perfect! Especially Moon Light and The Answer (those who played Megaman X6 should have had a little taste of the two songs as both of them were partially used in the opening theme for Megaman X6)! He even composed the song I.D.E.A., performed by RoST (again, this song was used as the ending theme for Megaman X6)! Visit this Wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotaro_Morikubo) which is about him! You might wanna try here (http://www.nf-morikubo.com/) too! Rina Aiuchi (Aiuchi Rina) is also another great J-Rocker! Her song CODE CRUSH is used as the opening theme for Rockman X7 (Megaman X7 had a different theme)! Janne Da Arc's Wild Fang, which is used as Megaman X8's opening theme, is no slouch either!

Ok I'm must've been on drugs, 'cause in my original post I only listed Laruku, Diru and Luna Sea (maybe I was just trying to be minimalist?) but of course I really love X-Japan too! Lemme add:
X-Japan
GLAY! <3 <3
HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR (everything I heard so far I LOVE)
UVERworld (though there isn't much to listen to yet)
And Nanase Aikawa! Whom I consider the best female rocker IN THE WORLD. <3
Some of Hyde's solo stuff is decent but it's mixed with plenty of crap, too. (this coming from a fangirl, but I have to be honest)
Yeah he's trying to have a weird style, just like you mentionned for Gackt. I didn't like that COUNTDOWN video of uber-longness all that much. :/ Well, he's trying to be more calm and stuff... But what I ask from Hyde is movement and hotness, so. *.* Haha.

T0M0_chan::yep, that is a guy. Ryutaro!! Lol, you think he's girly?? he looks so masculine compared to The Seeker's Daichi Kuroda or the singer of Rice/ex-singer of Raphael!!
Plastic Tree is ok, I used to listen to them a lot when I was first introduced to non-Visual Kei bands.
my fav:: Schwarz Stein, Vidoll, Alice Nine, Aikaryu, D'erlanger, cali≠gari, AILE, Kozi, HenzeL, Pierrot, Kuroyume, Raphael, and VELVET EDEN.
I like Silver Ash a lot too, but they're Chinese ^_^

I'll admit I started listening to Beat Crusaders due to the BECK anime. They are pretty darn good.
Now I have started listening to D'espairsRay since they are going to be playing AnimeNEXT. They are pretty good too.

I know Utada Hikaru isn't technically j-rock, but I saw other people mention her too. ^^; I prefer the older Cocco albums (even though her new one is good--it just seems to not have the same...emotion as her orginal ones) and Shiina Ringo's solo albums as oppose to her Tokyo Jihen band ones, but they're good too. :) I used to be a big fan of Aikawa Nanase, but not so much as of late...still like her, but she's not one of my top favorites. :o

Here's some stuff I like:
Do As Infinity (they're considered J-rock)
High and Mighty Color
UVERworld
La-arc-en Ciel
Asian Kung Fu Generation
Orange Range
Other stuff I haven't really listened to. There's this new band that I'm REALLY getting into, but I can't get any info on it at all. It's called Eu Phoria and its an all female J-Rock band which sounds AMAZING. I want to get a CD >_<
EDIT: Is Angela considered J-Rock?

Malice Mizer as in Gackt's old band? *shudders*

Malice Mizer kinda kicked the bucket after Gackt left and Kami died. Mana barely held that thing together. I like a lot of their older music. Mana's new band, Moi dix Mois is a POS though. >__<
I've never heard any Madeth gray'll and I can't seem to really find their music anywhere either. :/
