Utada Hikaru, Mai Kuraki, BoA and Koda Kumi are my favourite J-Pop artists. And Maaya Sakamoto is good, too^^

Hey everyone, I'm just a "newbie" as would everyone calls it for first timers.

Anyways, I would say, the Boom Boom Satellites (from the Appleseed remake and other releases) and Yoko Kanno. They both have nice music and instrumentals playing during several anime titles. :)

The Back Horn, Janne Da Arc, Inugami Circus-Dan, and Onmyoza are the only Japanese bands worth listening to. Disregard everything else :twisted:

O___________o

How can you put Inugami Circus-Dan on there!? I bet you couldn't help but laugh while putting it up.. > > (they scare me more than Dir en grey, and that's saying something! (especially when it comes to Dir en grey's pv to Obscure..it's the most messed up video i've seen by them and it still doesn't compare to Inugami Circus-Dan's music imo.. > >))

Oh man.. I'm afraid to list all the artist/bands i know since i got 200+ gigs of J-music.

One artist I STRONGLY recommend is Ryohei Yamamoto. He has like the best male singing voice I've heard by far.
Here's a couple of his PV's:

My favorites:

-Malice Mizer
-Moi Dix Mois
-Karimero (no one's ever heard of them though) here's a band page that my friend made with some songs. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu ... d=39606437

The first two shouldn't be too hard to find.
