    There is a new band forming in Japan now called "Far East Dizain"

    Its being done my former Deluhi and Undivide guitarist Leda.

    There is no music out just yet but I think I can safely say going to be something I'll enjoy. The man behind it is someone I greatly admire.

    I'm kinda annoyed with the new Jupiter album...

    There's a regular and special edition which has a bonus DVD, and they were both around the same price so I had got the special edition only to discover that for whatever reason the regular edition has 14 tracks, where the special edition only has 13! What the hell like? :mad:

    Cool, thanks for posting! They're a band I never got into, but if you like the mix of electronic sounds, Blood Stain Child are really worth checking out

    Just saw this thread by chance and I was only looking at a band who are Aisian, sorry I cant say if they are Japanese or not but they copied the music side of things perfectly, not so much the singing.

    Its a cover of Phil Lynott and John Sykes Please dont leave me.

    Had a look about, and there doesn't seem to be any CD version of the DVD, from what I could gather here. Searched on the Japanese HMV and Amazon sites too and no luck, so I'd say it's just available on DVD.

    But I did notice he does a cover of Lover Boy

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCUHG1zppsI


    He's got nothing on his former L'arc en Ciel bandmate Hyde's vocals, but musicially it's a damn good cover! :D

    Thanks Links234... Im not too familiar at all with Asian rock music,only what I discover through this thread and then from youtube suggesting vids.. Quite like Girugamesh also at the min :D

    Maybe I could buy the Live dvd and rip the audio from it? wouldnt have a scooby doo how to do it but could be worth a shot :cool:

    I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to do, this seems perfect for what you want to do, and VLC is free.

    Yeah Girugamesh are awesome :D

    If you're liking Ken's solo stuff then check out L'Arc en Ciel if you've not done so already! Though they're big enough worldwide that you might've heard of them, if not, that's Ken there on guitar ;)

    So here's something interesting from Huffing Post UK, Seven Japanese Acts to Watch in 2015.

    Cool to see The Gazette and Maximum The Hormone on there, but some other interesting stuff there too. Necronomidol is interesting

    Guys, check out Ningen Isu immediately! :D

    They've got this old-school heavy metal sound, kinda doomy, don't take themselves too seriously and are just all kinds of awesome. I'd say quite a few people here might like them, they're quite the opposite of what I usually post, none of the excessively OTT style of metal I like, just a simple 3 piece with big riffs and a huge sound. I'd say fans of Boris or Church of Misery would seriously like these guys! ;)

    Tickets on sale on Friday at £28.25. But of course I'm skint. I can see this selling quickly as they are playing two nights and fans that follow their tours will go for that convenience factor. Could they not have asked my financal situation and waited a fortnight :P

    I think I can probably afford it, I've not been spending much money at all this past month, I'm just worried it might clash somewhat with herself's plans for me to come to visit while she's in the states :eek:

    I could buy tickets if I don't want to eat :pac: I've already spent this week eating a meal a day and don't think I'm prepared to do it again :O. If I was you I'd get tickets and see what happens. They'll be easy enough sold if needed.

    Did someone mention nostalgic? I guess not many will remember Bow Wow aka Vow Wow who were probably the first Japanese rock band to be recognised internationally.

    This is their theme song for supermarionation show X-Bomber (known in the UK and Ireland as Star Fleet). This gets extra points for use of Engrish.

    They are pretty f**king boss alright, got their live Dvd last year for myself. Must watch it more often, always find myself watching the AA= or One Ok Rock ones instead.

    It's almost 5 years now since Daisuke Ochida died, so I've been stuck listening to Kagerou and drowning in my sorrows all weekend. Kagerou was one of the first bands I started listening to and they still have a special place in my heart.

    Sometimes when ShuU (girugamesh) DJs, he plays Kagerou songs...:(
