I know. And I also hate people's feelings towards foreign music. I'm sick of being questioned about it, particularly why I listen if I don't understand what's being said. It's such a narrow minded view.
I totally Agree. I love music sang in a foreign language. some of the best metal is from europe, plus when they add lyrics in their native tongue it's so much more special :D

Kiss "Psycho Circus", i cant get enough of this song and "rocket Ride" , i dont know to much about music myself, but I think Kiss were a phenominal group.
Kiss are my favourite group of all time. I prefer the 70's albums when it was Paul, Gene, Ace & Peter over their later ouput though.
I do own Psycho Circus but as I was so unimpressed with it I've only played it once and that was when it came out in 1998!
I'm looking forward to getting the Kissology DVD set which has the complete concerts from the early 70's that they showed clips of on the Kiss Exposed video back in 1987 (which I've played to death ).
Chris Daughtry was a Top 10 finalist in American Idol in 2006, and formed his own rock band which has shifted over 2million copies of his debut CD and had two No1 singles from it - easily outselling last year's winner Taylor Hicks.
Im currently listening to some J pop, the title and name of the group is in japanese so no idea what it is but the group are all school girls and in school Uniforms, very very cute ^-^.Not to bad singers either so its quite cool.
Sorry to double post, again there isnt an edit for some reason but i meant to say they looked like school girls, not they were school girls, me and my thoughtless writing again! Now i look like a perv!
Er Dude, you are aware of the Junior Idol fetish in Japan aren't you? And you've heard of the Hello! Project camp of music acts like the dreaded Morning Musume who are made up of girls as young as 13 dressed in skimpy outfits and doing saucy dance routines?
This group of yours MAY be in their 20's and are wearing the Seifuku outfits as a gimmick but be aware that there is a very strong chance that the schoolgirl pop groups ARE actually schoolgirls.
Listened to MARIA's debut album entitled You Go! We Are MARIA today. Good stuff.
For the uninitiated, MARIA are a girl group (not a solo performer) from Japan, formed out of the ashes of a previous group called ZONE. They play melodic pop rock which they write themselves and they play their own instruments unlike most girl groups in the West who don't even know what instruments or songwriting is.
I guess there are a slightly poppier version of The Donnas for those of who have heard of them.
lol, na I'm going for like an Opeth esq atmospheric sound. I think you can class some of Opeth's **** as Prog. that with some songs as Raw as thrash bands Such as Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, Slayer and Annihilator.
I just like experimenting really. I'm working on a speed metal cover of "Boys Don't Cry" by The Cure, it should sound quite interesting.
as for my playing, I've had no formal training. But I can hold my own in most situations ;)
