Plastic Tree is usually pretty relaxing and/or easy to get into. And a sweet-voiced female vocalist I really like is Rie Fu.

I'm looking for some jazz and blues, (I don't really care what country they're from, but I want some bands that are newer/currently active since I can ask my dad for older stuff), because I haven't really listened to any music of those genres yet. I also want some bands that incorporate really awesome cello into their music. I know of Apocalyptica and Kanon Wakeshima, but their music hasn't really clicked with me and moved me. :/ Thank you for any help!

I was just listening to stuff like Led Zeppelin, Heart, The Moody Blues, The Doors, The Who, Rush, Jefferson Airplane, Ozzy, Hendrix, etc. I was mostly under the impression that the cooler the guitar solo/the higher the singer's notes, the better the song. I paid no attention to bass and drums, and I didn't really "feel" the music either. Since I started listening to Japanese music, my appreciation for all the parts, (including bass, drums, mood, etc.), has gone way up, and music has become more important to me. I also am more open to different kinds of music now. I used to think metal and anything with screaming in it sucked, but now my favorite band is Dir en grey and I really like D'espairsray, Plastic Tree, Merry, UnsraW, Versailles, 9Goats Black Out, etc. Anyway, I'm glad I started listening to these bands from Japan.

Haha, this is awesome. Kyo, Ruki, Hizumi, Kamijo, prettymucheveryjapanesesingeriveeverlistenedto... awesome singers, but crappy English. Every now and then I'll understand a sentence, but I actually prefer it when their English is so bad that I don't even realize it's English; instead of me knowing that it's in English and cringing over the incomprehensibility of it.

Whenever I try to download something, I keep getting a "Internet Explorer cannot download 'filename' from 'site.' The operation timed out" message after the download is about 3% completed, (some downloads get futher than that, even almost completed). This started recently, and it doesn't seem to matter where I'm downloading from or how large/small the file is, either. Can anyone please help me with this? I'd be very grateful for any assistance.

They really should tour with bands with a fan-base compatible to their own; but I don't know much about Apocalyptica, so I wouldn't know if they were a good fit or not... Anyway, I'm so impatient for the next album to come out!

DIM was amazing, but I really don't like SHIVER and RED. They sound too "I've heard this before" to me. I hope their next album is at least almost as good as DIM despite this; I really have grown fond of their music lately!

Definitely looking forward to this!
