If you like this jrock band you will also like?

[advigilo]

there a lot of japanese rock bands in many different genres.
but what if you're new to this kind of music? how can you describe a band?


for example; if i like the band metallica... what kind of japanese bands would i like?

another example; i like the band dir en grey band and i really would like
to know some other bands from different countries that
kind of have the same style as diru.

i hope it makes any sense....
