Envy is probably my favorite Japcore band. I also like some of FC Five's work.

For a really good indy garage band, try out Jane the Ripper.

Ency and FC Five, were good, just to much screamo for me. I like Screamo a lot, just in moderation. Like Maximum the Hormone, or Roach. I cant find and anything for Jane The Ripper. They werent on Youtube, or imeem. You know a site where i can find them?

Jane the Ripper.

Red Cadillac rocks hard.

I'm assuming you know The 5678's?

Ah... Hmmm both of the vocalists voices were a bit to high and screechy for me. I dunno, did you watch the videos of the bands i posted? More like those.

Hmm...

They sound pretty poppy to me. I can't speak Japanese, though, so for all I know they could be singing "Shoot the dog with a cannon and kill the babies..."

So you want Japanese rock, clean vocals?

Yea mostly clean vocals. Like i said some screamo is fine. Well i guess it all depends on your definition of Pop, what i didnt want was Blink 182 type uptempo rock.

Asian Kung-Fu Generation?

Uh, UVERworld and HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR are both pretty pop-ish.

Only bands I can think of are Sex Machineguns and Galneryus, but they're metal, not rock. That okay, though?

The Pillows? =\
They remind me of the strokes.

And some of MUCC's songs are a indie.

Already have most of these guys. I have a FLOW discography, and a bunch of AKFG, and Back-On. Thyme, Ore Ska Band, and Kawada Mami are female vocals (see my edit to first post. But yea you have the idea of what im looking for. Few of these are pretty poppy though, like Aqua Timez. Thanks though.



Heh one of the first J rock bands i got into. I have a whole live concert of theirs uploaded on www.crunchyroll.com
