Nowhere Girl 189 Posted May 14, 2019 I see you like NIN. On the more electronic, industrial side, you might enjoy BAAL or Blam Honey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monkeybanana4 1732 Posted May 15, 2019 (edited) For some darker bands, I think Diaura is a decent band worth checking out. The singer has an amazing voice. Spoiler Edited May 15, 2019 by monkeybanana4 mistake ^^; 1 Gesu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He sounds a bit different in it, but I think it's worth checking out ^^ Reveal hidden contents Also for some darker bands, I think Diaura is a decent band worth checking out.

Arkady 396 Posted May 15, 2019 (edited) There are some names in your list I like very much. I think kizu may interest you too. They are popular in the VK scene bul also good. Spoiler And if I can reccomend a western name try early Muse (there is plenty of good stuff in their late discography too, even if more "commercial" oriented tho) Edited May 15, 2019 by Arkady Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chocobuzz 752 Posted May 15, 2019 I'd recommend checking out D.I.D. and Moi dix Mois ^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katt 63 Posted June 6, 2019 Personally, one of the bands that i've found pretty nice to listen to is Diet-Coke Head Barbie Dream, great alternative classic late 90s visual kei. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

psychonnect_rozen 585 Posted June 11, 2019 What are some good recommendations for newcomers to Visual Kei? The only ones I do recommend for newcomers are: GAUZE by Dir En Grey Mother by Luna Sea Merveilles by Malice Mizer Inspire and Climax by La'Mule Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Starting someone off with 90's visual kei, whether or not it's the cornerstone of the genre, isn't always a good idea. Potentially a metalcore or brutal band.

I know many people would LOVE that stuff but I often recommend the softer stuff because I always find that stuff more appealing. I recommend the heavy stuff if they enjoy heavy music.

Well, unless they're female, a heavier sound is more likely a good idea since a good majority of heavier bands fans scew more male than female in Japan. Females are more likely to be able to appreciate something soft or upbeat more than your typical man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
violetchain 912 Posted June 18, 2019 I'm going to see Miyavi for the first time in like 9 years this August because a friend invited me to go with her, and I was thinking I should catch up with his newer releases to get ready. I haven't listened to anything he's put out since Samurai Sessions vol. 1 except for the collabs he did with KenKen and SKY-HI. Any recommendations for which releases to start with / which ones to avoid? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
secret_no_03 959 Posted June 30, 2019 Looking for post-punk, alternative, shoegaze recommendations. So stuff like DĂLLE, deadman, DISH, Coaltar of the Deepers, HATE/HONEY etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
