There's also Yaida Hitomi. She leans more toward J-Pop, but I believe she still qualifies for J-Rock. She's similar to Shiina Ringo, though I honestly prefer Shiina. ^^;

Yeah, seriously. He said (paraphrased), that this is the music he's been wanting to write for years now. I guess he's working with a few other Japanese bands, too, whose names currently escape me. But a recent post on his site said that he's helping Aikawa write her next album. It should be interesting! |

The ending to Furi Kuri(FLCL), would be a good example of J-rock. |

It's the same difference as it is here between rock and pop. Yes L'arc-en-ciel is rock,but you can just tell. If it sounds like rock, it probably is.

there's a fine line between jpop and jrock....but I would say that jrock is more guitar-driven with less emphasis on the synths......

I can't believe nobody mentioned Onmyouza and Inugami Circus-dan here.
Onmyouza is one of the rare J-rock groups that has a female lead singer. The band name itself means the gatherring of balance between darkness and light and they've been banishing demons since 1998. Kuroneko is her name, btw. The bassist Matatabi is the backing vocals (and damn his voice is so freaking original!). Their latest album is Mugen Houyou. http://www.onmyo-za.net/ Inugami Circus-dan is the scariest yet the funniest J-rock group I've ever heard. Don't take 'em seriously because' of the lyrics that makes you squirm and puke. The lead singer is Inugami Kyouko. http://www.inugami.jp/ |

Actually, I was going to say Inugami, but I just joined today, so bleh =P Luv their unique style though, I wouldn't know how to describe it exactly, but it's like this mix of traditional, but then you put in a whole lot of gore, death, and goth into it
