another 4 piece girl band I recently stumbled upon is yubisaki-nohaku ( 指先ノハク ) [formerly RADITZ]...
didn't know them but they sound interesting, I dig their slow parts with nice bass-line and kind of deeper vocals.
 

 
most of their stuff is up on SoundCloud; https://soundcloud.com/yubisakinohaku

Never listened to SATORI before, but I really enjoyed that track. I'll be sure to check out more of their stuff.
 
For those that like HaKU, they recently released a new PV out of nowhere:

 
As a follow up to my previous post, la la larks' crowdfunding project for their CD was successful. I'm still not entirely sure if it's going to be a single, mini-album or full-length, but there's a demo for the title track up if anyone's interested:

just found this new PV by SATORI... very laid back stuff, nice dual male & female vocals and some jazzy feeling (sax. I guess?). I like it a lot!

This thread needs more love… hmm, I just stumbled upon ЯeaL… seems like I've missed this back in november/december.
4 piece girls band from Osaka, active a bit over 1 year and pretty young (17 y/o), so they're just getting things started (only a self-released 2 track single out). I's a bit on the average girl rock side I guess, the vocals are not perfect (the kind that many find annoying - but with girl rock I can live with it), the backing is pretty solid tho (esp. considering their age). If you like that genre in general (girl bands like FLiP and such) it's really not too bad - good enough for me to keep an eye open for possible future releases.

people generalized them as Jpop, but I don't think so, they have wide music genre in every songs
honestly I rarely listen to this kind of music, so.....

NON-JAPANESE PICKS:

DS is finally live! We're a bit exhausted at the moment as we've been finalizing a lot of things today in anticipation of the launch. So forgive me for not having much to say right now!

excited!

I can't believe jinsei x boku included in the list LOL, seriously it is their weakest album in my opinion. I can't feel their true spirit in every song, and too many slow song!
 
and 88 kasyo junrei's album 0088 is a masterpiece, couldn't agree more

Hi everyone ! 
 
It's been a long time since I've been on a forum but I decided to give it a try since it seems like the best way to discover new music. 
 
When I was about 14, I fell in love with Dir en Grey, the GazettE, Plastic Tree, MUCC, Luna Sea and so many more. 
Now-a-day, I am more into Rin Toshite Shigure, indigo la End, HaKU, Plastic Tree, THE NOVEMBERS, etc.
 
The list could be long, but I still hope to find some more good music and maybe share my tastes with other members ! 
 
That's about it, thanks to all of you ! 
P.S: pardon my english, I'm still learning :/

My name is Claudia, mostly known as 234cloudz.
From Indonesia, accidentally found this heaven and decided to join in here *0* I'm so lucky...
Lately I'm listening to Amuse's bands (such as flumpool, NICO Touches the Walls, WEAVER, etc.), Garimpeiro Records bands (such as ASHLEY SCARED THE SKY, A Ghost of Flare, The Winking Owl, etc.), Moscow Club, dustbox, FOUR GET ME A NOTS, and many more. Seriously, I'm random person D: I'll listening to every songs if I'm interested to listen it, no matter what genre is it.
 
 
I think it's enough for introduction, sorry for my bad grammar.
Yoroshiku ne!

the lyric available on hiro's blog, so here:
 
Triangle Carnage

This battle has broke out. All the feeling comes out.
People begin to bet bright life to face the concealed reality.
There is no truth but only its enormous hatred.
They bear fangs to get ready for the moment.

As the direction doesn't tell your fortune.
A little bird without eyes can't start flying with fear.
Have you ever thought why people begin the war in vain, and why people kill each other?
Since the human being held the wisdom, all the calamity has been born.
　　　　
「穢れ」を知る度に貴方に深く溺れた。
冷めてしまわぬように嘘を演じ、身を捧げて先の見えぬ夜を重ねた。Trial by ordeal...

The freedom has been restricted.
the peace would be a word of lie to keep slight belief on us.
She broke down crying with my hopeless word.
Holding a knife with tear, she asked me what the price to pay.

I wish I could suck his eyes to look at me.
Holding his arms to feel warm forever.
Kiss me, my dear. Hug me tightly.
Please make me wet with your toxic finger.

unforgiving…unforgiving…unforgiving

She is hiding in the shadow the dawning hasn't come yet...
Watch me till you die…I feel lonely.
A knife in the closet…promise in the fire.
So please tell me why you never call me.

As the direction doesn't tell your fortune.
A little bird without eyes can't start flying with fear.
Have you ever thought why people begin the war in vain, and why people kill each other?
Since the human being held the wisdom, all the calamity has been born.

ねぇ寒くはない？隣で温めるから...　　

「穢れ」を知る度に貴方に深く溺れた。
冷めてしまわぬように嘘を演じ、身を捧げて先の見えぬ夜を重ねた。 Trial by ordeal...

I hope a noob is allowed to post something here
 
 
LILI LIMIT

Makino Junpei (vocal & guitar)
Doki Taiyo (guitar & chorus)
Kurose Riyo (bass & chorus)
Shimizu Mika (keyboard & chorus)
 
 
Stumbled upon this new band from a friend's timeline in early 2013. Their demo song called "morning coffee" was quite impressive, I could say it's similar to the cabs' musical style. My second “discovery” was a song called Document / ±0, which came from their second mini album "A-E". it' sounds like a mix of tricot x haisuinonasa x the cabs with Engrish lyrics -I actually prefer vocal-less version of this lol-.  These boys and girls really have good skills, their live performance is really good as well. The only thing I concern is, vocal needs more effort (but fortunately they got nice back vocals ), I'm sure time will tell. 
I think this band is worth a try, especially for those who listen to zankyo record bands. *Fyi, "A-E" is one of recommended albums on zankyo shop online (considering this record label's reputation on Japanese indie scene, LILI LIMIT may have a great chance in the future).
