The proper term would be "onnagata". I love these types of bands, although I honestly don't listen to them a lot. I wish there were more onnagata bands who do kotekei, like way back then.
 
btw i don't like the term "trap", it sounds so demeaning, but that's just personal preference

Sui(megaromania) Ryohei(ayabie) and kaya are best at this. 
 
Yuuki-sama is legendary though so he shouldn't even be mentioned 

Kansai akuchi is what they call themselves when they play in Kansai area (osaka, nagoya etc) because it's not the same members as in Tokyo area. Yayoi (Ex.MIRAGE) is part of Kansai akuchi anti feminism, and some more guys obviously.

関西悪血(KANSAI ∀NTI FEMINISM) new album "悪血魂(∀NTI DAMASHII)" will be sold in advance at their presents live at Shinsaibashi paradigm at 2016/04/09 (11 songs), which will include songs composed by each member

Damn I missed Naru's voice

KEKE new album "K" will be released at 2016/03/30 (2,000yen)
 
 
btw he will hold his one-man live at Ikebukuro CYBER at 2016/03/26

When I need a good cry, let off some steam, or just feel emotional in any way even if I have no reason to be, Plastic Tree and PLASTICZOOMS are, essentially, my "go to" emotional bands. The other bands I like to listen to who also bring this out of me are BUMP OF CHICKEN, Radwimps and Galileo Galilei. I find lyrics extremely appealing. I am drawn to lyrics most when it comes to music. I remember them easily and can connect to them, this also includes the vocal delivery of them. As well as heartfelt screams as already mentioned above. AWOI comes to mind, who I felt really delivered in every way. 9GOATS BLACK OUT was even more amazing when evoking an emotional response, imo.

DEG's Akuro no Oka. There's so much feeling in that song.

This dude is one of the most useless members in the history of all bands. He's more like a support member than anything else. He never even appears in any of their videos, except PVs and Live DVDs nor is he ever seen interacting with the others or composing. I'm actually surprised they didn't kick him out before. Anyone that can play the bass is better than him. He won't be missed.

Overseas fans can now finally order Melvel merchandise! (CDs, mail order limited cheki, kira kira rings and just about everything else the band sells!)
 
Since 1/28, the band has opened an official webshop for japanese and overseas fans alike♡

メルヴェル(melvel) new maxi single "非現実絵本世界-シクレモルフィ-(higenjitsu ehon sekai-secret malfi-)" will be released at their presents live "シクレモルフィ P.06" at HOLIDAY SHINJUKU at 2015/09/08

I've only been to two lives outside of Japan (The Candy Spooky Theater in Boston in 2007 and Ayabie in New York in 2008)
Bands used to come within traveling distance but I was really young back then so it was impossible for me to go most of time. (D'espairsRay.......)
 
I went to a lot of lives when I studied abroad in Tokyo from September 2012 to August 2013 but I don't think I ever kept track of every single live I went to. I can work on compiling that another time.
 
Last summer I went back for three months (5/24 - 8/20) and kept a better record so I can start with that.

Also moshing with Jojo and Hikaru during Mimizu. It's usually just Hikaru but Jojo got down with us since it was his birthday. He got his ass tossed around like a ragdoll. 6/20: I felt like I was about to throw up the entire live, and I particularly felt horrible during Gallo's set but I tried to have as much fun as I could. The band definitely noticed as I got both Hikaru and Wajou's picks and some worried looks that evening. I left after their set and ran into the former vocalist of a band I liked in middle school and talked to him a bit. 6/25: Marblehead entered the stage from the back of the room and walked through the audience while the bassist was holding the vocalist by a leash. It was so wtf but I quite liked them. 7/6: Taa dumped a crate of ice cubes on us then we went straight into Dekiai Kuranke and everyone was slipping everywhere. Taa also climbed up to the mezzanine, dove on us, and we carried him back to the stage, and then sat on my head and almost ripped out my earring. Oh Taa.... 7/26: During the encore Ryoga stage dove directly on me and my friend knocking us down to the floor and landing right on top of us. He kicked me in the face as he got himself up and used my friend's chest as a step to get himself back on stage, and when he got back on stage he spat water on us. Thanks dude. 8/10: I was dosen for 2nd Awake and when Aika came down to two step with us during Contradiction he tripped over my feet and almost fell on a bunch of gya in the second row.  8/12: HaL got off stage during one song and started crawling and flipping all over the seats in the front-left section of the venue trying to get people to sing for him.

they will change their band concept
