He looks like a guy. The drums on THE are crazy. Didn't he leave the band though? Assuming he's the drummer.

Meet the OG of Japanese indie rock: Mukai Shutoku. This nigga soundtracked my life for a good majority of my high-school life. Still love his work.

Believe it or not, these guys actually got me into Japanese music of all genres. They play mostly angsty teen punkish songs but also have some really laid back ballads. Their lives shows and music videos are always different, energetic, a bit strange, and always entertaining. [spoiler]And they more or less broke up earlier this year which I'm really bummed about[/spoiler]

Also, almost all of the same members were in another similar band in the 90's and early 00's that's also worth checking out.

P-Model is pretty interesting. If you know Susumu Hirasawa from the Satoshi Kon films, he's the lead of this electronic group that's been going strong since the late 70s.

Post rock with a noise element, it's Masonna with the guitarist from Angel'in Heavy Syrup IIRC

any albums from her?

Can't think of some Japanese hip hop album. It was sorta instrumental in a Hyde Out way with a group rapping over it. Black cover with a colorful castle on top of it

Made a shareblog long ago. Someone here could find it useful.
