The idea is to go to the page of your number one artist, and follow the link of it's number one similar artist, then repeating that for this artist and so on, noting down each artist as you go. Do this until you've got to 50 artists (not including your number one). If you get any repeats, just go to the second similar artist or the nearest one that you haven't already had.

Purpose of this list:

This journal entries serves as a link collection of japanese artists that share a name with a western artist. More info here.

Since the old list became too large and impossible to edit, I split it into 4 parts, to allow more growth.


Part 1 (A-F)
Part 2 (G-M)
Part 2 (N-S)
Part 4 (T-Z)




How to: to create a new unicode-profile you need to scrobble at least one track. If you don't know how to type unicode romaji you can copy and paste from here:

ＡＢＣＤＥＦＧＨＩＪＫＬＭＮＯＰＱＲＳＴＵＶＷＸＹＺ
ａｂｃｄｅｆｇｈｉｊｋｌｍｎｏｐｑｒｓｔｕｖｗｘｙｚ
１２３４５６７８９０
？！：；＃％＆

Note that the unicode characters are case-sensitive! So make sure you use the correct capitalization.

If you know of any japanese band that needs a unicode profile, leave a comment. I will add it here to connect the 2 profiles.

Sad panda
AILE

1. ガゼット
Some songs are just too much, and I must say that in overall STACKED RUBBISH were a disappointment. I only liked less than half of the album.
And do they even know which musicial direction they wanna take now?

2. DIR EN GREY
This faggy wannabe-american-metal-suuk thing is getting old. DOZING GREEN could have been a good song. Kyo screamed like a little girl TWICE in that fucking song, and the guitars didn't even sound like guitars.
I like all of their old material though, but please, stop with this fucking nonsense.

3. ヴィドール
I miss their old sound. Tune up the bass and make some crazy original music again. Now there such a soft band.
Yet I respect them. And I feel sorry for Jui who lost his sister, yet continued with music. I wish Sakito from Dué le Quartz would have done the same.

4. Dio - Distraught Overlord
Finally a new band that isn't oshare. I like oshare, but there aren't as much heavy bands right now.
