(^"no escape anime gif." Thanks google)

I mean if Boris's poppy stuff counts as J-Pop I could say listen to that, but I'm not a fan so I don't think that's particularly fair.

the term kind of covers most modern Japanese music to some extent, even some of Boris' sludgier rock stuff could technically be called J-Pop.
the only thing i categorize by is the vocal component/melody really, there's all sorts of experimental producers flooding into pop music over there, everywhere to some extent. everything is vague but that's cool.

Well, I'm not going to post Perfume because everyone should know Perfume and just how perfect their music is.

My friend is super into this alt-idol shit though, I enjoy some of it but nearly to the level he does.

Hes way super into Psybou Kanojo. Somehow crosses Melt-Banana with Idol. I don't know. It's cool though.

BiS were super good, still bummed they broke up.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P91AD3y6GyM[/youtube]

BiS did a joint album with super japanese noise group Hijokaidan (who is touring the US in March!)

Avandoned is touring with Hijokaidan in March, going to see them. I actually really like this.

This whole abum is tight as fuck.

As always, fuck the haters. D.o.S. probably secretly loves this stuff.

other than anime themes I don't like much Jpop that sounds like what Jpop sounds like when I think of what Jpop should sound like vs bands from Japan that I like :idk:

Etsuko Yakushimaru did Mawaru Penguindrum, Space Dandy and Arakawa Under the Bridge.

nice stuff ST, thanks :)* i'm definitely huge on the alt-idol thing as of late, anything mathy or noisy or gazey but with ridic catchy vocal melodies = :love: i'd rather listen to stuff like that that's actually meant to be pop music than a lot of the watered down shit that gets passed off as math rock or shoegaze or whatever nowadays.

also i forgot Tujiko Noriko. best avant pop/electronica.

I love Tujiko. I really like this album she did with someone else:

I also love Yanagi Nagi's voice so much

Also, everything YeYe touches is gold

Atata shows look so much fun. I hope to see them while I'm there.

It's impossible to look up Anime OPs and EDs without getting Osu! shit. Fucking Osu!.

More people need to post. Cmon, let the inner weeb out.

:lol: it's the equivalent of wading through fucking guitar hero videos when you wanna listen to the Mars Volta or something.
i love rhythm games but Osu is garbage compared to Project Diva etc.

Look, I can't fucking find the song on youtube because there is only shitty covers, osu, and nightcore versions (BURN IN HELL), but the song Click by ClariS is like the perfect pop song. So good.

I quite like the OP for Boku Dake ga Inai Machi
