I recently discovered Japanese band MONORAL by accident and I really like their music. This amazing multicultural band creates an eclectic mix of diverse genres of rock and pop, their talent is notable and powerful in every song and each track is different from the others so you have variety of styles. I just wanted to share this with you  icon_mrgreen My current fav song is Weird Kind of Swings.

Some of their songs:










Hope you like them.

heya, not bad at all. they really do have a good sound... thanks a lot for sharing

I recommend you check out Jupiter One. I saw them when they opened for Regina Spektor and were absolutely mind blowing. They also played as Regina's band.
They are from NY but the lead singer is Japanese and barely speaks english... this was a total shock as he came on stage, playing his violin like a guitar and sounded pefect on vocals. I had no idea he couldnt even speak english properly.


Here's a couple of songs:



Enjoy

Anis is a Japanese-Moroccan who speaks Japanese, French, Arabic and English. He used to be a fashion model, as well as a MTV show host.

Ali is a Japanese-American who grew up in Tokyo, he speaks English and Japanese. He was a VJ on MTV Japan, where he eventually met Anis.
