09.12.14 | So many covers didn't show up :/ |
Archelirion
09.12.14 | What kind of music is Abingdon Boys School? Kinda wanna listen to it for the name alone. |
Jasdevi087
09.12.14 | They've got a quite commercial metal sound I suppose. Listen to Innocent Sorrow for a feel. |
Archelirion
09.12.14 | Yeah, nowt to get overly excited about but they're certainly not offensively bad. Good if you don't wanna think too much by the sounds of things. |
someguest
09.12.14 | I have to squint to read some of these titles. |
Jasdevi087
09.12.14 | Yeah, I wouldn't jam them all the time but they're nice to listen too, plus their singer rocks. |
Artuma
09.12.14 | where the fuck is envy? |
CalculatingInfinity
09.12.14 | This is maximum sempai will notice you material, non stop quality here minus a few stinkers. Also Sekai No Owari should be on here :D |
Jasdevi087
09.12.14 | holy shit I died ^^^^ |
Jasdevi087
09.12.14 | Oh yeah, forgot about Envy. Senpai notices that shit too. |
emester
09.12.14 | Dude check Sigh- Hangman's Hymn |
witchxrapist
09.12.14 | Envy, Endzweck, Heaven In Her Arms, Naiad, and The 1000 Travels Jawaharlal are like, hands down my favorite Japanese bands and I used to be a huge Japanophile weirdo. |
Sabrutin
09.12.14 | Some really nice picks, but I would have included Galneryus too because they are one of the best power metal bands out there. |
danielito19
09.12.14 | what the fuck is a senpai |
Xar
09.12.14 | a senpai is someone you look up to and admire. a mentor in some cases. also refers to someone older than you in school. |
danielito19
09.12.14 | but is a senpai also someone you want to bone? |
Xar
09.12.14 | hmm. not sure, i think they can be but not particularly i suppose. |
Shuyin
09.12.14 | great stuff, but i would've added at least 1 Yoko kanno album |
danielito19
09.12.14 | all these japanophile terms confuse me, half of them mean "someone you want to bone" so at this point i just assume they all do |
ZombieParty
09.12.14 | Intestine Baalism |
discovolante
09.15.14 | New Rote'ka, Strawberry Fields, Galapagos, Missile Girl Scoot, Zigzo... holy shit, my voice has been heard. |
Jasdevi087
09.22.14 | [update] Switched Mejibray with Envy because Mejibray suck. |
Jasdevi087
10.22.14 | I love how Hyde has more reviews on Sputnik than his actual band. |
Jasdevi087
01.30.15 | [update] Switched Deluhi with Advantage Lucy, Diaura with Galneryus and Sadie with Kuroki Nagisa. I also tried to repair some of the artwork by adding backslashes but it appears that trick only works when you first make the list. |
Archelirion
01.30.15 | Forgot about this list! Bookmarked for posterity :3 |
Archelirion
01.30.15 | That artwork for 7 is glorious. |
Jasdevi087
01.30.15 | That album is better than it's artwork too. |
Archelirion
01.30.15 | Really? Sounds like I need to get on that then. |
Jasdevi087
02.21.15 | Update: all of the artwork is fixed and I replaced Deathgaze with Luinspear. Also apparently two are missing but I don't remember who they were so I'll have to replace them. |
Jasdevi087
02.22.15 | Update: Added Casiopea and Asa Chang & Junray since there were two missing and I didn't know which ones they were. |
Jasdevi087
03.21.15 | Update: Switched Arlequin with Shizuka. |
nokitron
03.29.15 | Senpai is your senior in school gdi |
Funeralopolis
03.29.15 | it's not like I wanted you to notice me or anything anyway b-baka! |
Snowdog808
03.29.15 | 1 should be enough to impress any music sensei to be honest. |
Jasdevi087
03.29.15 | @nokitron it applies to other social areas as well, not just school. |
discovolante
03.29.15 | Casiopea is |
nokitron
04.01.15 | But seriously, my senpai called me weird after I showed him this list. |
Jasdevi087
04.01.15 | He's obviously no senpai of yours, disown him. |
ComeToDaddy
04.01.15 | I've heard like 20 of these but senpai still wont notice ): |
Jasdevi087
04.01.15 | That's weird. |
ComeToDaddy
04.01.15 | What are your top 5 recs from this? I want to spin some Jap stuff I don't know, and there's so much of it. |
CalculatingInfinity
04.01.15 | Well you haven't rated 1, so that's an ASAP listen to right now if you haven't (live version of course). |
ComeToDaddy
04.01.15 | Oh, I haven't rated a bunch of stuff I've spun, especially albums I jam when I initially get into a genre. I should really sit down these holidays and consolidate the ratings so I can get proper recs for these sorts of things :s ones I've heard are 1, 5, 7, 10, 13, 17, 18, 20, 31, 36, 40, 45, 53, 56, 59, 66, 76, 77, 87. |
CalculatingInfinity
04.01.15 | Same hence why I asked if you have. I'd say the top 5 from here you haven't heard are: 22 (best shit ever I promise), 46 (essential) 69, 60 and 3. |
ComeToDaddy
04.01.15 | Oh boy, 22 is the singer on Mervailles. Will check them all out, cheers for the recs man. |
CalculatingInfinity
04.01.15 | I should check some albums on here, that's my task for today. |
CalculatingInfinity
04.01.15 | @Come: He's even better on Mars, it's incredible. If you enjoy Mars check is EP Mizerable since it's also pratically perfect. Enjoy. |
Jasdevi087
04.01.15 | @ComeToDaddy 2 and 3 are essential essential, probably my favourites on here along with 9 (though 9 isn't exactly essential). 4, 12, 14, 63 are also pretty unmissable tbh. 90 is some really depressive psychedelic, noise rock stuff well worth listening too. 99 is some really chill jazz fusion funk, I'd say those are good for a start (I haven't even listened to all of these, hence why I'm constantly swapping shit ones out for others that I enjoy more, An Cafe and Vidoll will probably be gone soon). |
Jasdevi087
04.01.15 | a lot of these were recs I got, but I've heard enough of most of these to know which ones deserve to be here and which ones don't. |
CalculatingInfinity
04.02.15 | I tried a few albums here and I really didn't like 13 and I didn't like 4 :/ I should listen to 99. And yes please get rid of An Cafe because they're awful. |
Jasdevi087
04.02.15 | By 13 do you mean 14? Cause don't you own 13 lol?
Sucks that you don't like Plastic Tree and Midori though but yeah don't skip out on Casiopea.
An Cafe is gonna def get the boot, not even sure how they managed to find their way on here. |
CalculatingInfinity
04.02.15 | lol I ment 14 sorry, yes I do own 13 and I love it. 6, 8, 15 and 16 were all misses too :/ (note the only one I actually disliked was Midori, gah). Replace An Cafe with Kazumoto Endo - While You Were Out :D |
Jasdevi087
04.02.15 | I was gonna replace them with Cowpers or maybe Kinoko Teikoku, haven't heard Kazumoto Endo's stuff but I'll look into it. |
CalculatingInfinity
04.02.15 | Have fun because that album is stop-start, ear destroying fun. |
Jasdevi087
04.03.15 | Oh wow someone fixed the Sugizo artwork. |
Archelirion
06.18.15 | The main issue with this list is finding the buggers. Senpai's never gonna notice me like this.
But seriously, everything I have been able to find that's on this list is fantastic. You've done god's work. |
CalculatingInfinity
06.18.15 | It happens, but worth it if you find good stuff. Also you need check Mars still :P |
Archelirion
06.18.15 | Haha, that's one of them I'm having trouble finding in it's entirety :P Like, there's bits here and there, and then I need to make sure it's the right one and not the Gladiator remake - I think I just need to bite the bullet, buy it, and trust that it's as amazing as it's made out to be (which I have no reason to suspect it isn't from what I HAVE heard) |
CalculatingInfinity
06.18.15 | I'll give you a full download link of the album then, one moment. |
CalculatingInfinity
06.18.15 | Here: https://mega.co.nz/#!TZBV1Chb!OSIOL2KbOHxc4sUJsRb0HTkYUK2sRC7pR7ue5L_9EhI |

06.18.15 | For anyone having problems finding stuff in good quality, here's a great site: http://www.j-musiic.com/todas-nuestras-discografias/ |
Archelirion
06.18.15 | A million times thank you |
CalculatingInfinity
06.18.15 | No problem :] |
Archelirion
06.18.15 | Got a nice long bus journey today and another one tomorrow, so I'll have plenty of time to check it out (as long as I don't sit near the engine anyway). |
emester
06.18.15 | Does senpai notice me if i listen to Church of Misery and Sabbat? |
CalculatingInfinity
06.18.15 | Sweet, hope you'll enjoy it. Tell me what you think when you're back from it. |
CalculatingInfinity
06.18.15 | Some Senpai's may notice emester :D |
Archelirion
06.18.15 | I can be your senpai emester. I'll notice you.
Will do Calc, I'm seriously looking forward to this. |
CalculatingInfinity
06.18.15 | Forgot to mention because I'm an idiot, all files on that website I linked have a password of j-musiic.com |
Jasdevi087
06.19.15 | I'm doing a reboot of this list btw guys (since you've uncovered it) and nearly half the shit on here wont be on the new one, it's going to be a lot more diverse. All bands will have full descriptions, the works. Just need to finish writing it, about 30 entries are done. |
Jasdevi087
06.19.15 | @emester yes definitely |
CalculatingInfinity
06.19.15 | Fuck man I'm hype for that :D |
Archelirion
06.19.15 | Aw shit yes, I look forward to that one immensely. |
Jasdevi087
06.19.15 | thnx |
