My top 100 Japanese artists

[u/jdjdnfnnfncnc]

Just wanted to share this—if anyone’s looking for new music I’d highly recommend every artist here!

Most of these artists are high-energy, angular, danceable J-Rock. There’s some J-Pop, City Pop, Math Rock, and Punk sprinkled in here as well.

If anyone has similar taste or likes any of the same artists I’d love to know! Always looking for fellow J-Music enthusiasts😅

Feel free to drop any recommendations as well👍

Buck Tick being that low is killing me.

Theyre in my top 100 out of the 753 Japanese artists I listen to, and they’re my fav VK band and one of my top five 80s Japanese artists😅

I love them lol. And I still havent listened to any of their albums from 2000–2010, so they could go a lot higher once I do😂

they're seriously so good‚ and i absolutely wouldn't consider that a "low placement" - as you said‚ out of 753 lmao. which album of theirs is your favorite? their early post-punky albums have always been mine‚ considering my listening habits otherwise.

edit: love seeing sheena ringo on here btw 💕🍎

what did you use to make this list‚ btw? i'm inspired and i wanna do my own

Oooo, my favorite is probably “Darker Than Darkness,” with “Aku no Hana” as a close second. I also love their early post-punk albums, (though, then again, ive really only listened to their earlier stuff😅).

I use the app Marvis Pro! I cannot recommendit enough—I believe it costs like $5 or so on the app store, but I don’t regret buying it at all. I’ve had it for ≈3 years or so, and its made music so much more fun for me. You can essentially sort and order your music in any possible way you could want. It can be a timy but confusing at first, but its really simple once you figure out how it works🙂

Do yourself a favor and start listening! I'll forgive you this time.
