Dir en Grey

Just went with a friend to see Dir en Grey at the house of blues.  I literally went in with no idea who they were but I was surprised to find I actually really liked them.  Japanese bands pretty much seem to kick ass.  Flawless performance guys.

Not sure if anyone is familiar or interested in the J-rock style of music, but if anyone is let me know what you are into.  Dir en grey I was not familiar with but I do know a lot of other Japanese bands, The Gazette being a top one on the list.  It is definitely all a different sound, as well as look (visual kai bands were alarming the first time I witnessed them), but it all seems pretty hypnotizing to listen to. 

Comments appreciated guys.

  2. I"ve never been able to get into much Japanese music aside from the Cowboy Bebop soundtrack and some grind metal. It just doesn't tickle my pickle I guess.
