15 Japanese Metal Bands Part 2

[vaqomega]

Need an Aborym-like Band from Japan, then i'll say: Yes, they can do anything!

[sakitosfan47]

Galneryus .......FTW!!!!!

[GCErik]

so many awesome clothes and hairstyles! :^D

[EVILNEVRDIES]

LOUDNESS!!!!!!!!!! NUFF SAID!!!!!!!!!

[starsaunt]

should hade taken one of Dir En Greys songs from their new album Dum Spiro Spero!!

[JRockGalaxy]

@starsaunt This was from before I could get the album. :P

[crrops]

@JRockGalaxy ok I was wrong for the most part but most still look like faggs and no I'm really picky about new music or bands. I don't know haw old this bands are but dont get the same feeling I get wen I listen to my music also not a big fan of Glam.

[JRockGalaxy]

@crrops Close your eyes and listen then, still if you like heavy metal there's heavy metal bands variously through the series, if you like thrash, there's thrash! :3

[sasuke3677]

00:45 WOW! i've never heard better scream in my life

[crrops]

This arnt metal bands this are a bunch of fagets dressed like chicks

[JRockGalaxy]

@crrops Hey smart guy nice english, and what part about it isn't metal. Galneryus and Levia are power metal, Vomit Remnants death, Anthem and Loudness heavy metal, Metal Safari is melodeath, Corrupted is doom, Gallhammer is black, Grief of war is thrash, Dir en Grey is nu (usually), That's 10/15 bands that are metal. The other 5 are visual kei metal bands deriving from other metal subgenres and influences. So, stop whining and go listen to your garbage, not widening out for anything new.

[aponiaa]

@JRockGalaxy I love you...

[JRockGalaxy]

@aponiaa I'm flattered.

[Ocelotlikespie]

The second guy starting from the left from UnsraW. Is that Lydian6? Chaos9's friend who used to play the guitar in Endless Dismal Moan?

[JRockGalaxy]

@Ocelotlikespie Uhh don't think so. Not that he (Jun) for sure isn't, but I couldn't find anything saying he was.

[Ocelotlikespie]

@JRockGalaxy It resembled a picture I saw some time ago. Thank you for clarifying that.

[JRockGalaxy]

@Ocelotlikespie Gladly.

[JRockGalaxy]

@Ocelotlikespie Uhh don't think so. Not that he (Jun) for sure isn't, but I couldn't find anything saying he was.

[Magnosummit]

@JRockGalaxy daniphenton was saying that you could've put a better photo of Dir En Grey; the one you included was too "gay." So... you did have the gist of it, but he said the picture was gay. :P

[JRockGalaxy]

@Magnosummit Ohh! That makes more sense. Thanks! :3

[Magnosummit]

@JRockGalaxy No problem. Love the song by Loudness, too. Nice video.

[theoriginalelzincho]

I kinda like Asian metal I'm more of a lamb of god and deth metal fan but I honestly cannot tell in some of the pictures who was Denali and who was male

[WS3K]

@JRockGalaxy he told that you should put a better photo because this one you put looks the band is gay. =D

[MrAidenAlexander]

Quit saying things are gay and just listen to the damn music.

[28petersndvl]

VOMIT REMNANTS!!!

[daniphenton]

podia colocar uma foto melhor do Dir En Grey essa ta muito gay AHUEHUHAUEA

[Zyriden2]

oh how dir en grey has changed... still awesome though as always

[Auzziedingo]

hell yeah DIR EN GREY!!!! brilliant list youve made here :D

[JRockGalaxy]

@Auzziedingo Thank you! My list extends all the way to part 6 now. :D

[Komdej1000]

metal safari very cool

[asagisex881026]

yeaaaaaaa dir en grey...... kyo no podia faltar!!!! <3<3<3<3

[fulgoristic]

Metal Sfari is like the salvation of asian metal, seriously.

[GrenMoyo]

YAAAAY Dir En Grey! I was waiting for that! I even more amused now :)

[parrish001]

Funny how whenever I come across videos like this to try and find new bands, I always end up just looking for the ones I like and listen to already... Kind of defies the purpose, doesn't it?

[METALBASSIST595]

Im diggin Metal Safari

[sebonkira]

Loving all this new (for my ears) metal. Feels so fresh to me. Heaps of stuff to search further on... METTTAAAALLLL lml

[painandpyro]

I know this vid is supposed to be mainly for less known japanese bands (that bieng almost 95% of the j-rock scene...) but wow I just got rebaptized in Diru's awesomeness...

[VersaiIIes]

Versailles, Dir en grey, Galneryus, Deluhi, Onmyouza, Deathgaze, X Japan and OZ fucking rock. :) Good lists.

[SelfReflexivity]

Also I am glad loudness made your list. Been listening to them sense Engine came out in 1999

[JRockGalaxy]

@SelfReflexivity Loudness is wonderful. Plus the U.S. actually knows who they are!

[SelfReflexivity]

xD Xodiack does not look like how they sound at all lol

[TheAngryVideoGamer66]

okay for 5 year snow my favorite japanese band has been DEATHGAZE but now i reconsider... that Unsraw is now my favorite band of 2011 :)

[painandpyro]

@TheAngryVideoGamer66 sucks they broke up tho...

[Behemoth221192]

GALLHAMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[vraatzucht]

Okay, I reconsider. :-) There are quite some interesting bands in this list.

[JRockGalaxy]

@vraatzucht That's the idea. Spreading around the non-mainstream metal bands of all metal genres along with the mainstream ones too :3

[JGO707]

METAL SAFARI!!!!!!!!  \m/(>_<)\m/

[whitesickness]

La mayoria de esa lista es basura visual gay sin valor; lo poco que queda es metal o tiene algo de metal.

Visual gay no es Metal en absoluto, suene como suene.

[JRockGalaxy]

@whitesickness And I'm sure you even listened to the video. Tasteless troll.

[henricub]

@whitesickness asi se habla visual key apesta

[Rockmetaltilltheend]

@ TheGeek1028 Pantera is actually their biggest influence.

Their music is thrash/groove metal with a touch of metalcore but they also put more melodious parts in quite a few songs.

[Rockmetaltilltheend]

If you love metal, then no way you won't like Metal safari. They simply just blow my mind away : ) .

For me the 2 greatest Japanese metal bands are DIR EN GREY and METAL SAFARI.

[MikyWrita]

@Rockmetaltilltheend And Maximum The Hormone :D

[viceware88]

that first song is heavy metal that shit go deep unsraw social faker thats metal

i love japanese metal and rock iv done heard every band there is im crazy over them bands

[TheGeek1028]

Metal Safari reminds me vaguely of Pantera. Anyone else?

[JRockGalaxy]

@TheGeek1028 Me personally they remind of Shadows Fall crossed with Maximum the Hormone's vocals (male vocals of course). :P

[TheGeek1028]

@JRockGalaxy Yeah, that, too.

[SinSchism]

I was wondering where Metal Safari was on the first list. I feel a bit better. Lets see if my other favorites make the list.

[clysuss1989]

Levia is dope!

[polarcane]

allright i dont get this, most of the song sound BADASS but wtf??!? why do most of them look like they were taken straight out of an 80's glam rock music vid?

[JRockGalaxy]

@polarcane Because they're Japanese. And Japanese people are generally crazy. And yes I'm Japanese too.

[polarcane]

@JRockGalaxy allright ^^ just seems weird to me when i hear a band that in my european standards would be a black metal band and then find out they look like a glam band, just dossent compute lol but then again it's all about the music :D

[JRockGalaxy]

@polarcane Yep. All about the music. And yeah, they're very unfitting looking to their genres often.

[DistraughtK]

@polarcane its visual kei , its a very big thing in the music scene over there.

[Jamora]

These bands were A LOT more metal than the previous video! Yesh!

[iilovereita]

OMFG XODIACK *O*

[KanoKazuma94]

Loudness is awesome: all these bands are fuckin awesome!!

[Asthat666]

Yeah Gallhammer \m/

[deathmonger99]

Anthem's sound reminds me a little of ironmaiden in the sense of guitar and basic sounds

[JRockGalaxy]

@deathmonger99 I never noticed that :o They always reminded me of old school Loudness. Thanks for pointing that out :P

[TheLongLakeRockstar]

Xodiack a Glam Death Band?

[JRockGalaxy]

@TheLongLakeRockstar Somewhat. They're really weird. Refer to themselves as "Galaxy Metal" pretty new band overall though.

[TheLongLakeRockstar]

@JRockGalaxy Now why the Hell does that sound so fucking cool? I'm all for and by the way props on the Galneryus comment bro, Syu and his boys Rock!

[ievate]

they all using growl, but it sound nice :)

[JRockGalaxy]

@ievate What about Loudness, Levia, Gill'e Cadith, Galneryus, Anthem, and Ambivalent :o

[RossGeller79]

galneryus is the best :D !!!!!!

[JRockGalaxy]

@RossGeller79 Or at least old Galneryus D: Ono is alright, but isn't Yama B.

[RossGeller79]

@JRockGalaxy

yeah, i totally agree you! sho makes a real good job but yama-b's voice was perfect for glneryus, thats why i like the yama-b albums the most :D!^^

[matias19891]

Metal Safari! lml

[CookieMONSTERisFULL]

Have Levia done a theme for an anime, the singers voice sounds so familiar,

[JRockGalaxy]

@CookieMONSTERisFULL All of the members are from other bands,

the vocalist Kousei was from LAVERITE, but they were never known enough to be hired to make a theme xD He probably just sounds like someone else :P

[CookieMONSTERisFULL]

@JRockGalaxy Yeah, I realised what it was o - o the singer kind of sounds a little like Grells voice actor, the songs both sound simular at the beginging. ^ 3^

[JRockGalaxy]

@CookieMONSTERisFULL Nice ^o^

[thedarkone3456]

Until 7:25 I was getting a little worried because Dir En Grey wasn't on there.

[JRockGalaxy]

@thedarkone3456 Calm yourself, I wouldn't forget Dir en Grey lol

[Exletion]

@JRockGalaxy PLEASE ease my pain and spell it correct as Dir en grey.  Awsome pick with obscure. One of there best songs.

How many hangings tonight under the red moon

How deep will it sink inside eating skin that doesn't match?

The snake makes way through the sheets and goes inside the uterus.

It can seem like a someivoshino a cherry blossom petal,

That dances sadly. The stain is the moon that's fullfilled,

And the vomiting at night begins. Don't you remember?

[JRockGalaxy]

@Exletion Is it really that necessary :o Besides they don't even stylize it as Dir en grey anymore generally.

[Exletion]

@JRockGalaxy lol I suppose not. Its just one of those little things as a Dir en grey fan.

[JRockGalaxy]

@Exletion Understood. They are very talented after all. <3

[emmurepoop]

Most of these bands fucking suck tiny dick!

[JRockGalaxy]

@emmurepoop And you sir I will gladly let never click on my videos again. Enjoy. :D

[JRockGalaxy]

@oldmananzai What other than Judea? :D That's in my opinion their best. Haven't listened to Final Sky a ton however. I'll need to a bit more.

[Linekerxlx]

My favority Japonese : Loudness,Sigh,Anthem,Vomit Remnant,Metal Safari,Grief of War,Corrupted,Galneryus,Dir En Gray,gallhamer,XodiacK,the piass

[oldmananzai]

Oh boy,

Blood Stain Child and Exist Trace are missing!! They are both great!! Especially BLOOD STAIN CHILD!! Wish to see them instead in the next vid...

[JRockGalaxy]

@oldmananzai Definitely. I have about 100 bands waiting for this series, they're within those. I'm just making sure I have 5 or 6 great bands in every part. :D

[Hardgaymachineguns]

Correct Japanese Metal Band: Loudness,Sigh,Anthem,Vomit Remnant,Metal Safari,Grief of War,Corrupted,Galneryus

Visual Metal Style:X-Japan,Dir En Gray and other

[JRockGalaxy]

@Hardgaymachineguns I just mixed the two together to just give a taste of all forms of metal in Japan :P

[TantricNferno]

Glad to see someone listed Dir en grey as metal and not pop music. It's strange seeing it classified as that over there sometimes. I still got to wonder though, why does EVERYONE always choose Obscure for the gateway song? Haha.

[JRockGalaxy]

@TantricNferno I finds it to be their best song :P I used it for that reason xD

[MrMigguhjuice]

dir en grey is my favorite

[Hardgaymachineguns]

1:LOUDNESS

2:OUTRAGE

3:ANTHEM

4:MONONOFU

5:METAL SAFARI

[JRockGalaxy]

@Hardgaymachineguns 1:DEATHGAZE 2:SIGH 3:LOUDNESS 4:ONMYOUZA 5:CROSSFAITH

[EpicGuitarTv]

why do so many of them look so gay....or just plain out cross dress?

[JRockGalaxy]

@EpicGuitarTv And you can't ignore what the bands look like to realize that they actually make good music, Or just avoid rude comments?

[EpicGuitarTv]

@JRockGalaxy Never said the music is bad even though a few of the bands here are.....but i just don't get it why do so many of them dress like.....women like i do understand visual kei but some Japanese metal bands i have seen literally dress like women like full on dress and lipstick and high heels not even kidding

[JRockGalaxy]

@EpicGuitarTv And that is completely true. Just weird Japanese people I suppose. Won't find a crazier country than Japan except for possibly Korea.

[EpicGuitarTv]

@JRockGalaxy Korea....South or North haha

[JRockGalaxy]

@EpicGuitarTv Hmm. Generally South, but North is crazy in their own ways.

[XcolorfulXemoXD]

the quality on some of the songs sucked, but othr thn tht i rly liked all the songs

[JRockGalaxy]

@XcolorfulXemoXD Yeah some did have pretty bad quality, The ones that did were generally unknown bands. Insane to find anything by them :P

[MikyWrita]

No Maximum The Hormone? @JRockGalaxy you should really put them in part 3,they are pretty much the most original,and by my opinion the best Japanese band ever,not to mention they are really talented.I mean singing and playing the guitar at the same time,playing drums and singing at the same time,inventing your own type of scream,and not to mention Uehara(the Bassist) is almost good as Flea from Red Hot Chilli Peppers.

[JRockGalaxy]

@MikyWrita They are already in part 3. Just need to finish it off :P

[filth69ify1]

DIR EN GREY #1

[dawnhighway]

didn`t know so many V-rock dressed guys play metalcore music :)

[JRockGalaxy]

@dawnhighway That's why I'm here :P lol

[JRockGalaxy]

@dawnhighway That's why I'm here :P lol. Part 3 will be out in a bit.

[IxSacrificexI]

can u please tell me bands that are similar to DELUHI? i can not find one any where

[JRockGalaxy]

@IxSacrificexI Hmm. Japanese metalcore bands... Maybe OZ, some Ancestral, or certain Girugamesh songs?

[IxSacrificexI]

These Japanese Metal Bands make american metal bands look like pussies

[JRockGalaxy]

@IxSacrificexI Yay for epic Japanese metal. :D

[shogun341]

@IxSacrificexI not really you can find stuff like this here too, but these band are cool though

[TheJake1005]

@IxSacrificexI what are you talking about? there the ones dressed like fags

[JRockGalaxy]

@TheJake1005 And only idiots can't look past the clothing to see that the music is actually good.

[TheJake1005]

@JRockGalaxy look I think these guys are good, but the only let down is how each dude looks like a dike.

[JRockGalaxy]

@TheJake1005 I'm glad you enjoy the music, the majority of people who don't like their clothes also trash the music without good reason. Glad to see you'd look past it.

[TheJake1005]

@JRockGalaxy thanks

[icelinx]

A lot of good metal bands should be in the next videos: Onmyouza (the best!) / Area51 / Alhambra / Light Bringer / Xecsnoin (Death M) / Bleed Out (mel. Death M) / ChibiRari (not in Youtube) / Destrose / Iron Attack / Minstrelix / Windzor / Versailles (VK) / Hizaki Grace Project (VK)

[darkoccillator257]

[toyomaru90]

これはスゴイ。今まで日本のメタルを紹介する動画の中では最高で­す。　This is so amazing. Best metal ever Japan featured in it.

[JRockGalaxy]

@toyomaru90 Thanks :D Part 3 will come in a few weeks.

[JRockGalaxy]
