rockonjapan.net is a website that a friend and I have made to help expose the Japanese rock/metal scene to a broader audience. If you're located in the states and would like to volunteer to pass flyers out and post them around your city to help bridge the musical gap, please shoot me a message for more details? The site itself will launch on June 1st !

When people call visual kei "Japanese nu metal" I feel my eyes roll a little further back in to my face.

No. Visual Kei is a cluster fuck of different genres with a theme slapped over it. Not to be a genre nazi but I get annoyed when someone only listens to visual kei bands, claim it's the only good music in the world, and prance around like they're the gods of genres. Not saying all are like that... in fact very few but it still annoys me. Tbh I'll say hey idk what this band even is but they're tight before I call the whole scene Japanese nu metal

Plus if anything, Metalcore is dominating the Vkei scene today as Nu Metal is slowly falling into obscurity. Of course, to call Vkei "Japanese Core" would also be an overgeneralisation, especially with the thousands of meanings "core" can take on (i.e Hardcore Punk, Punk, Metalcore, Metal in general, Hardcore EDM, etc.)
