Komorebi 2193 Posted June 29, 2016 Hi everyone My name is Komorebi, I am from Chile and after snooping around for a few days I decided to join this wonderful forum I've been listening to VK/(J)Rock for about 5 years (yeah, not that long) and this year I started getting more into the newer bands, so there is A TON of music I do not know (this includes many older or "classic" bands from the 90's). That being said, I am open to any reccomendation. I'm more into melodic and clean vocals than growling but I give every band a shot to prove their worth and talent. I dislike judging a band based solely on their looks so I avoid youtube. I hope I can get along with everyone here and maybe even make some good friend. Have a great day/afternoon/evening~ 8 gekiai, Yukimoto, beni and 5 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Komorebi 2193 Posted June 29, 2016 (edited) Thanks! I'm sure I'll enjoy it. It's been a while since I've joined a forum but my past experiences were awesome. I really enjoy L'Arc/Vamps (my introduction to japanese rock and later on the VK scene). Acid Black Cherry, D, Matenrou Opera, Malisend, VRZEL, Luna Sea, Buck-Tick, Diaura, Rayflower, Ling Toshite Shigure, Biosphia, D'espairsRay, Mardelas, The Lotus are among some of the (many yet not that many) bands I like. Nocturnal Bloodlust is growing on me, despite being a lot heavier that what I'm usually into For some reason I haven't been able to get really into Malice Mizer/Moi Dix Mois/Kamijo, no matter how much I listen to them. Edit: Kagrra, Morrigan, Exist Trace and Mucc are also among my favorites. Edited June 29, 2016 by Komorebi 1 hiroki reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YuyoDrift 1540 Posted June 29, 2016 (edited) Welcome! Some bands I recommend with clean vocals are lynch., Arlequin (アルルカン), BLESSCODE, and if you like some traditional sounding japanese, then Kiryu (己龍) are awesome. Here's a thread where you can see which vocalists top everyone's fave list, as well as list your own. My favorites are on that thread too . Glad to finally have you join us!

Komorebi 2193 Posted June 29, 2016 Thanks! Lynch and Kiryu are actually in my "to listen to" list, I raided a friend's hardrive a little while ago and took everything she had from them. But I haven't actually sat down and listened to them yet. I'll check Arlequin out! Blesscode I've heard and they are pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm so happy to see another listener of Malisend and BUCK-TICK around Don't know what I can rec since I listen to a lot of the bands here, but maybe check out Pentagon? They're kinda popular so I wouldn't be surprised if you already heard of them 1 Komorebi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
