So, these days I seem to find myself giving out a lot of music recommendations, to everyone, everywhere. This is all well and good and I am always overly happy to help, but the thing isツ… well, my music collection is starting to get dry. And the more I pimp bands, the more of crave new ones.
So I am here begging for your recommendations.
I love indies stuff but at the same time, I am overly picky. It needs to have that thing, you know. That little hook that will catch and drag you in. I like darker stuff, dirty, grungy feeling to the music and vocals yet I find it better if they sing, not scream. I also like pure rock, things like J. I am picky about vocals and tend to go more for deep and growling than happy and perky and let's not even go near Oshare kei. Obviously I LOVE Nagoya Kei and the whole Angura Kei/Eroguro genreツ…
To make things easier, I have compiled a rough outline of my Jrock playlist.
Bands that I love and that get played all the time:
12012
9Goats Black Out

Born/D&L/Renny Amy
Buck-Tick/Atsushi Sakurai/Schwein

Crows
The Gazette
