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.)

Shot in the dark on this one... but anyone wanna save for a trip to Japan this October? I'm thinking the 24th to the 3rd of November.
-
well let me know around what time you're thinking... I'm pretty flexible as long as it's after september but before mid november. Only reason is I work at a tourist attraction so during holiday season they need me. But it'd be a lot cheaper if two of us went because if we use airbnb we can basically rent an apartment plus it'd be nice to make new friends and have someone to explore with. I'm kinda awful at finding the courage to do things on my own.
-
Yea! I'm thinking about those months too. I want to be there before november for sure. That's a good idea with airbnb, that would save great deal of money and I'm always glad to make new friends too ^^
I was thinking about mainly staying in Tokyo, you?
haha, I was already thinking that my plan for the trip would be "dead end tokyo", meaning I'd go to pretty much all the weirdest and most interesting places I can find.. : P But I can go to the most seedy places on my own.
But ya, I don't want to promise too much yet, because my money situation is big question mark at the moment, but I'll keep you updated!

tbh all the friends I had when I was in my prime of VK, no longer like VK anymore. "I listen to vk" is noob enough for me.
-
This is the only place I have VK friends. Everyone else is convinced I'm still "going through a phase" even though it's been over a decade.

Lack-co. ....lol no. Each song on that release sounds like 3 songs in one. Tenten's vocal melodies are very bland and unimpressive. I doubt they'll last long.

if you wanna talk about one ok rock or just watch me awkwardly talk about them look at this video wow.
