    I mainly listen to J-Pop and I pretty much only listen to Hello Project groups. My favorite would have to be Berryz Kobo, Ice Creamusume, and Morning Musume. I'm actually listening to a song by Morning Musume right now!

    Most Japanese music I listen to is anime related... I'm such a nerd. >.>

    I have a new obsession with Character Songs. I didn't even know they existed until a while ago. But most of them are so darn catchy! If I haven't seen the show, I probably won't listen to the songs though. :P

    I listen to:
    High and Mighty Color, with the old Makii. I don't like the new singer.
    Nightmare
    this one band...They made the song, "What's up People." I forgot the name just now.
    An Cafe sometimes.
    POKEMON MUSIC LAWLZ. Hey some pokemon music are somewhat japanese..ish. Like Ho-Oh's theme from HG/SS.>.>
    YUI! I love her.<3 She's such a good singer.

    So I listen to pretty much Japanese rock than pop.

    I listen to Korean music normally, so I really only know of Korean artists that have done Japanese songs/albums, such as:

    • Younha [Go! Younha]
    • Big Bang [BIGBANG]
    • BoA [Valenti]
    My favorite albums' titles are in the parenthesis.

    A lot of random stuff. Mostly anime OSTs, though. Like the person above me said, SOUL'D OUT and Teriyaki Boyz are fun. And Heartsdales. ^^

    I also love Orange Range and BACK-ON.

    You're thinking of Maximum the Hormone, which I also adore. Especially "Chu Chu Lovely Muni Muni Mura Mura Purin Purin Boron Nurururerorero."
    Let's not forget abingdon boys school, which has brought us the lovely "Innocent Sorrow" and "Fre@k $HoW." And Girugamesh ~ So mostly J-Rock.

    I like Anime songs, J-Pop, and J-Rock.

    Although, I don't know many artists in the Japanese culture. ^^; I just listen via streaming on last.fm~ Random streaming ;D

    I listen to Japanese music mostly because of Anime openings. I find out about a song I like and listen to the bands other song. I only listen to Japanese rock though, it's the most appealing genre to me and at it's best, Japanese rock is better than normal rock. My favourite bands are probably Nobodyknows+ and Aqua Timez.

    Lots of Japanese instrumental rock and soundtracks really. There are a few alternative and heavy bands (HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR, Envy...)

    Generally can't stand any form of Visual Kei, but I do love SID.
    I thought that was just an image, not a genre...?
    Granted, most of the bands I've listed here fall into that image category... xD;
    But I'm not sure what affect it has on the actual music.

    Most of the bands are either rock or metal:

    • Ali Project
    • Kanon Wakeshima
    • Isao Tomita
    • SID
    • Versailles
    • Mass of the Fermenting Dregs
    • Matenrou Opera
    • Alice Nine
    • Megamasso
    • Lynch
    • Exist Trace
    • Supercell
    • Malice Mizer
    • Moi dix Mois
    • Schwarz Stein
    I also listen to a ton of Anime OSTs, not included in that list.
