j-rock faves


There are a dime a dozen J-Rock artists, but there are a select few that appeal to me for special reasons. Why does J-Rock appeal to me rather than conventional rock? Mainly because I believe that "conventional" rock groups lack in creativity as to how their songs sound. The British rock group Iron Maiden was probably the most creative that I know of. The rest all just sound like facsimiles of one another.

That's not the case with J-Rock, at least in my opinion. Each band has (or had) its own personality and style, and as a result produce incredibly unique works of music. But I digress.

Each page lists the band members, and what I like about their music. It also has a few notable tracks that I think illustrate the skill of that particular band very well. As I find new favourite bands, they will be placed here.

Without further ado:

Choose a J-Rock artiste!
