CAT5 9075 Posted January 30, 2011 ^ Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice! Can't wait to hear it. ^^ From the samples, it sounds like they re-recorded the song "cry" from the "die hard" single - which was awesome. Is she-ja still their guitarist? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

X-Marc 7 Posted January 30, 2011 Sex Machineguns FTW!! Anchang is so awsome! Loudness and Anthem are other favorites=) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Libertine 2 Posted January 31, 2011 Not pure metal at all but I do love me some Boris or Onmyouza. Could never get into sigh though. They're quite popular but don't like their music. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBistroButcher666 228 Posted January 31, 2011 Not pure metal at all but I do love me some Boris or Onmyouza. Could never get into sigh though. They're quite popular but don't like their music. I must admit I really only like the albums Gallows Gallery and Imaginary Sonicscape I haven't fully listened to their entire discography, just bits and pieces from other albums but I always just end up going back to those two. Onmyouza is tight though ~ I have only listened to their early material, not much of their current stuff :-S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
futoshi92 34 Posted May 12, 2011 J-metal is just awesome: Anthem & Ezio Sakamoto and Sex Machineguns are awesome and crazy in a positive way I'm currently checking Loudness, Aion, SeikimaII, Onmyouza, Gargoyle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Des 289 Posted May 13, 2011 Has EZO been mentioned yet? "Here It Comes", "Kiss of Fire" among other songs are incredible. Before EZO they were called Flatbacker but I prefer their two albums under the EZO name. I gotta check out other Loudness albums. I've only heard Soldier of Fortune so far. What's the best album to go to next? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Number Girl 48 Posted May 13, 2011 Very generic suggestions for Loudness but Thunder in the East and Disillusion (English or Japanese version) are classic albums. A key thing to know about Loudness is to listen to the ones with Niihara as singer. Mike Vescera just sucks. . .don't even bother. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ronluna 17 Posted May 13, 2011 i like the song of EARTHSHAKER called MORE and checking more videos of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karma’s Hat 3107 Posted August 4, 2011 One of my favorite Japanese metal bands has to be Church of Misery. I just love all that . God i forgot to mention this! They are amazing, especially live. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BynX7EL-RKQ Dat bass I missed my chance of seeing them due to financial problems, but there's always the next time as they seem to really like Finland. Also Japanese Thrash! Rosenfeld comes to mind first. That stuff is essential. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Manabu 144 Posted December 6, 2011 is that the saber tiger that caused hide to change his first bands name? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Number Girl 48 Posted December 6, 2011 Wait, I thought Saber Tiger and Saver Tiger were the same band . . . if that's what you are talking about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ronluna 17 Posted December 6, 2011 is that the saber tiger that caused hide to change his first bands name? yes. hide's band was changed because they saw the Sapporo SABER TIGER and they changed it to YOKOSUKA SAVER TIGER. Wait, I thought Saber Tiger and Saver Tiger were the same band . . . if that's what you are talking about. even though they (横須賀サーベルタイガー YOKOSUKA SAVER TIGER, SABER TIGER) both formed a band in 1981, YOKOSUKA SABER TIGER disbanded in 2001 while SABER TIGER from Sapporo is still releasing albums and performing lives until today. Akihito Kinoshita formed the SABER TIGER while Hideto Matsumoto formed the 横須賀サーベルタイガー YOKOSUKA SAVER TIGER. + popular other ex - members SABER TIGER - Masafumi Minato (DEAD END) 横須賀サーベルタイガー YOKOSUKA SAVER TIGER - kyo, TETSU (D'ERLANGER) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaito-sama 1 Posted December 7, 2011 Hizaki Grace Project is pretty snazzy, although its not the same kinds of metal you guys were mentioning. Symphonic metal fits in there too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joyless 4 Posted December 7, 2011 changing pace a bit, Corrupted put out what may be one of my favorite albums of 2011 earlier this year. being somewhat unfamiliar with the band past seeing their name around, I just did some last.fm'ing and, despite being japanese, apparently most of their lyrics are in spanish. pretty unique i guess? doom/sludge stuff with post-rock influence, btw. zWJw7tsInY4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CAT5 9075 Posted December 8, 2011 so.....did that new volcano album ever surface? ;3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Number Girl 48 Posted December 10, 2011 Well, yeah . . . it wasn't my favorite album of theirs ever, but it had a couple of decent songs. If you mean as in a download, you can probably try looking over the internet someone should have posted it, but I got mine from iTunes. I did upload one song in the second Project Mixtape thread if you wanna see that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
