Thanks !

I used to listen to "Luna Sea" stuffs which I was quite fond of. They split now but they're still like legend to some young rock bands:)Try something like "JESUS" or "G".

Do as Infinity had a few tunes I liked - too bad they disbanded a while back.

B'z
Glay
Mr. Children
(Those guys have been around for AGES)

Miyavi
Nightmare
The Gazette
(Visual Kei/Rock)

Porno Graffitti
Dragon Ash [You might have heard them from the ending tune of Battle Royale]

Well, those are some on top of my head. To be honest, I am more leaning towards to J-Pop/R&B, with a bias for female artists less common in the 'J-Rock' as far as I know.. I like Maaya and Utada, but they aren't rock as far as I am concerned.

High and Mighty Color is a bit of a JRock/Pop mix with a female lead. I like them.

Utada Hikaru is Pop, and cheers for the list :D

Thee Michelle Gun Elephant
Yura Yura Teikoku
Guitar Wolf
Mad capsule Markets
Polysics
Ruins

Forgot to add Melt Banana, but they're an aquired taste;)
