i did the lighting for a mini metal festival yesterday. highlight for me was the tokyo hardcore trio - electric eel shock. all high-energy monster rock, fuzzy afro, flying vee and converse, chatting with the crowd and near-naked drummer. they're touring heavily for the rest of the year. i fully reccommend them to anyone. they've restored my faith in live music.

I recent years TONS of ultramegacool stuff has come out of Japan in various genres. Mainliner, Acid Mothers Temple, Melt Banana, Exias-J, and Gerogerigegege come to mind.

I've never heard any band or artist from Japan who has impressed me and, believe me, I've bought plenty of CDs of Japanese artists, mostly having heard them being raved about on the pages of Wire. Well, there is one I like - an album by Haco, the name of which escapes me.

Electric Eel Shock are very good, but i think they're completely different from most other Japanese bands I've heard. They seem to be more 'mainstream' and 'normal' (relatively) than most.

no offense, but your comments read like you have issues far beyond the music, friend.

...and Fushitsusha is among the best bands ever, IMHO. Musica Transonic, SPlendor Mystic Solis, Knead, Nijiumu, Nishinihon, Overhang Party, Vajra, Thee MIchelle Gunn Elephant, Boredoms, Hanatarash, ooioo, Minimokoto, Les Rallizes Denudes... there are amazing things from Japan. Avoid Loudness and Pink Lady.
