One of the things I really admire about Japanese musicians - especially the ladies - is that they all know each other, they all cheer each other on, and they all genuinely wish for each others' every success. They know each others' records, they know who their bands are, and they generally support each other like you wouldn't believe. And then there're the skill levels, just astronomical. They never, ever let off the gas. I love them for that.
@XaoslordErie Tell me a couple of your favorites, 'cause I can't keep up. The last all female Japanese band I heard was Tricot, a few years ago. (And I love them!)
@NTropy_Sellers I'll make a list (no order of preference):
- Nemophila
- Show-Ya
- Band-Maid
- Gacharic Spin
- Tricot (But original drummer Miyoko left)
- BimBamBoom (featuring former Tricot drummer Miyoko)
- Bridear
- Mary's Blood
And some solo artists:
- Li-sa-X
- Saki (also Nemophila & Mary's Blood)
- Kanade Sato
- Senri Kawaguchi
- Tamu Murata (also Nemophila)
That should be a good jumping in point to get you started, I hope. There are lots more, but I didn't want to overwhelm.
@NTropy_Sellers You are most welcome! Enjoy exploring!
