What's a good album to be listening to on my flight to Japan or when I've arrived in Japan?
>>68263162
Cheap Trick - At Budokan (complete concert)
>>68263162
Got'chu familio.
>>68263162
Here's one for you, both in English and Japanese.
Baby Metal?
Cliche maybe but lost in translation soundtrack is great. Personally I listened to a lot of Jon Hopkins and the king creosote + Jon Hopkins album while riding trains in Japan. Have a great time it's a fucking amazing place.
>>68263162
ryo fukui , no fucking question about it. Play it alone in tokyo at night while it rains

Long Season Live or Studio
>>68264975
Hey that's some good shit, thanks anon.
>>68265277
I'm glad you like it, its an insane album but you have to be in japan to *really* experience it. Also Early Summer is the best song in Japaneses jazz hands down
>>68263545
It's one word actually (BABYMETAL)
And if OP is flying All Nippon Airways they actually have Babymetal's albums preloaded in the tvs.

>Nippon Airways they actually have Babymetal's albums preloaded in the tvs.
Wow
>>68265667
It's not just them but they are one of the Japanese groups you can listen to on their flights.
>>68265917
Well I imagined that.
What are some other artists this beautiful company has on their flights?
Technopolis by Yellow Magic Orchestra

>>68263162
Literally this.
>Japanese artist
>travelling theme and atmosphere
>last track is literally called "Welcome To Japan"
>it's a great album
Pinkerton

>Otaku listening to music made by a westaboo
There's irony in there somewhere
>wake me in Japan
>>68266572
>Otaku
who?
>>68265193
HOW THEY LIVE IN TOKIIIIOOOOO
WASSSAAABANGGGAAAA HHAUUUUUU HUUU
>>68266617
CAN'T WAKE UP
>>68266622
OP who is going to Japan.
On the other hand the guy who single-handedly controls everything about babymetal is a huge westaboo who loves everything about Western metal and has the biggest coldest shoulder to Japanese metal, and a deadly allergy to Japanese idols.

Big In Japan by Alphaville
>>68266769
Jesus Christ dude find a new hobby
the books - lemon of pink
Big in Japan - Guano Apes
>>68266933
What do I have to do with anything?
I just don't think that listening to a Dragonforce co-production is the most authentically Japanese thing out there.
>>68267217
Right because Japanese metal isn't directly influenced by western metal
>>68267267
It is to some degree or another, sure, but every other Japanese metal band isn't a desperate stalker love letter to Metallica or Limp Bizkit.
Thoughts on the new Utada Hikaru album? I'm afraid to listen to it. I don't think I'll like it as much I used it like the older albums.
>>68267420
Actually that's not totally fair there are loads of Japanese metal bands that try even harder to be more Westernized, but Babymetal is the most popular so hey
>>68267477
>find a new hobby
>being babymetal's white knight is not a hobby, it is my life's work.
>>68267481
This
>let's sing entirely in English even though 99% of our fan base is Japanese and don't understand it
>>68267505
Koba annoys me a lot but I've literally seen you all over 4chan sperging out about the producer every time you see BM brought up like you were a co-founder who got spurned.
>life's work
This is definitely projecting
>>68267562
>legitimate criticism of the "band"
>whoa hey man wow chill out get a life haha
If you want the echo chamber full of memes and roleplay, and not a discussion of the actual music with different opinions, you know where the containment thread is. This is /mu/
DJ Shadow - Endtroducing
not for the Japan part but it's great plane music
>>68263162
>Here I am, driving through Japan at night
>>68267681
That's not the point.
>OP makes a thread about what album to listen to for Japan
>Babymetal among MANY others mentioned
>randomly assumes OP is an otaku just so he can shoehorn his tired vendetta and derail thread
You don't want a discussion, you just want people to stop enjoying something you don't like anymore.
>>68267792
All the other songs and albums were more about Japan or more Japanese... or more about airplanes... than Babymetal.
I said it was a poor choice. You're the one arguing.
The thread was so cozy
>>68267851
>All the other songs and albums were more about Japan or more Japanese... or more about airplanes... than Babymetal.

oh yea, koba.

>>68268011
The point is that statement was absurd and from the very first post it wasn't true.
to me, a perfect fit

Okay.
Enjoy their split EP with Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
>>68268119
My cock in your sweet little boypussy is a perfect fit.
>>68268062
a masterpiece...
>>68268150
Hopefully, a one and done single would be pretty cool.
>>68268178
(i'm a girl)
this.
>>68267515
From the top of my head I know of a couple of Japanese metalcore bands who do by-the-numbers metalcore and their vocals were so bad that I had no idea they were actually screaming English.
>>68268228
Oh...
>>68268348
Not to mention they all especially dislike idols
>>68268440
hey man, you're pretty cool. wanna be friends?
If you're in a chill mood, this would be nice.
>trip hop with traditional japanese influence

As long as I don't have to do literally anything then sure thing
>>68266319
>>68265917
Please
>>68267465
It's got a different aesthetic than everything else she's released but I don't think you'd be disappointed. Give it a spin.
>>68263162
The new utada hikaru album. Otherwise you'll want to give better criteria than the country of origin.
>>68269736
I don't know, probably most of the big names but it can vary with time.

Why was j-pop so much better in the 80s?
>>68272254
japs weren't completely ruined by anime yet
>>68272254
Half of it is nostalgia. The other half is YMO's members being extremely talented, wildly influential, and consistently active throughout the decade.
