recommend Japanese male singers

[khan5]

im looking for good Japanese male singers they do not have to be solo singers they can be in bands. im not looking for idol groups like arashi, smap, katun and etc. More along the lines of rock.

the ones i know and listen to are:

- the gazette
- one ok rock
- Dir en grey
- uverworld
-l'arc en ciel

[KarenPang]

- BREAKERZ
- DAIGO☆STARDUST (BREAKERZ's frontman prior to the formation of the band , this's his solo debut name . Now he just goes by the name of DAIGO)
- AKIHIDE (BREAKERZ's guitarist)
- NEVER LAND (AKIHIDE's old band before BREAKERZ was formed)
- SPYAIR
- SID
- flumpool
- B'z
- abingdon boys school
- Acid Black Cherry

Yeah the 1st 4 are BREAKERZ biased somewhat haha

9GOATS BLACK OUT, who have recently broken up. I recommend listening to in the rain.
tosinn. That band only came out with a few songs but they're really good songs. I like the vocalist's voice a lot.
I'm sure you've heard of MUCC.

[KarenPang]

I forgot to add WEAVER xD I saw them performed last Sept when they came here as they opened up for flumpool

Their music's very unusual as they do not have a guitarist but they have some good songs in their discogrpahy

[YuriChan]

B'z (Karen mentioned them already. I'd recommend starting off with GREEN, since that's the most ayu-ish album other than MAGIC and C'mon, and LOOSE.)
Koshi Inaba (Shian is a very angsty album to start off and Koshi's most raw album up to date! <3)
X-JAPAN
Porno Graffitti (Their stuff is mostly pop. But, they come up with some pretty catchy music! )
VAMPS

You also should give these legendary jrock artistes a shot too

- GLAY
- Himuro Kyosuke (he was the lead singer of the legendary band BOOWY & he did a duet with GLAY which was awesome)
- Fukuyama Masaharu
- BUCK TICK

Also ...

- school food punishment ; sadly they've already disbanded but their music was good . Very indie & experimental which I guessed that's what caused them to disband as their music in general is not very mainstream =x
- Anna Tsuchiya
- OLIVIA
- Aqua Timez
- Suga Shikao ; I'm not sure if he's counted as 100% JRock as his music roots lies in a lot of funk music o_O
- Saito Kazuyoshi ; very talented (or rather over talented xD) musically gifted . Too bad in real life , he's a downright pervert lmao
- Kuriyama Chiaki

Luna Sea

How about Golden bomber? They are the only funny rock band ever~! Totally love them~!!

And Kagrra, is my favourite. Theirs is more of light rock. They make very beautiful music. Check them out too. ^_^
