Hardcore Music

[shinzou]

Anyone know any decent grindcore, hardcore, or screamo Japanese bands?
I'm interested as to hear the difference between local/western metal bands, and those from Japan.

Any help is appriciated. Thanks!

I'm not familiar with those genres...but here are some j-rock groups that have a lot of screaming and heavy guitars

Dir en Grey,12012, Despairs Ray, Deadman, Rentrer en Soi, Miyavi, maybe MUCC. I can't think of much else right now, sorry.

Not from what I have heard. I like that music, but I would say give the neoclassical/speed metal a shot its really something.
Galneryus
Wizards Hymn
Concerto Moon
D'espairsRay
Girugamesh
Sadie
Those are some that I found. If anyone has any other please add!

You could try :
Unsraw
Awoi
Lynch
Deathgaze
Survive
-OZ-

all of them are good bands with heavy sound and growl ^^

Nice list there. I really liked lynch and oz. Deathgaze was sweet too. But I couldn't find anything on survive.
Anyone find anything on them?
