Recommend me some music?

[zyoeru]

I'm not too fussy about genre or language.
I'd like to hear from bands/singers that have really energetic songs.

I don't like idol groups that have more than 2 (fe)male singers.
If they're a band, I'd prefer them to be the type that play instruments rather than all being singers.

Also, I'd prefer if it they have good lyrics. But I don't mind Engrish as long as it's not cringe-worthy. LOL

With genres I'll listen to (almost) anything. But at the minute I'm in a really poppy, dance music mood.

Thanks in advance!

uh, how about UVERworld <3. they're the best .

[zyoeru]

Cheers! I'll check out them.

Namie Amuro, Koda Kumi, BoA

[visionfactory]

Do you know WaT?

[Polyrhythm]

Well....they ARE a 3 person group but I wouldn't say they're an idol group...um Perfume? Check em out. A majority of their songs are very dance-y and energetic. I'd recommend Dream Fighter and Polyrhythm...Chocolate Disco....but Perfume is kinda...not everyone can get into it. I understand if people hate them completely. They do sound fake and techno-y which might not mesh with everyone's taste.

I'll listen to those songs you recommended, I listened to a Perfume song a while ago and I really liked it. :]

[Namie♡TOP SECRET]

I don't know if they would be considered an idol group, as they are Johnny's, but ARASHI. If you want rcok, try KAT-TUN. And Perfume's good too.

[zyoeru]

Yeah. Haha. By idol I mean Johnny's.

[Namie♡TOP SECRET]

Aaah. That's a problem.

Maybe Muse. You live in the UK, so you know what they're like. They're releasing a new album in a few days.

[zyoeru]

Muse

I didn't realise that had a new album coming out. Thanks for the heads-up. LOL

Muse's awesome . I love Blackholes & Relevations & frontman Matthew's hot

anyway zyoeru , since you already specified that you don't want people to recommend Johnny's material (dammit no chance to brainwash on this xD) , I recommend a lot of great jrock stuff since rock's my fave music genre & I tend to listen to a lot of it if I'm not having a Johnny's moment or 2

you can check out these great jrock bands other than UVERworld

- abingdon boys school (they're 1 of the 1st few J artistes I started to listen to of them since I began my jpop music journey 3 years ago & they're still 1 of my fave groups up to now & they have put out 3 singles this year & I want a 2nd album soon)

- BREAKERZ (just like KAT-TUN , I'm a BREAKERZ stan all the way ! By a stroke of luck or 2 , I was watching MTV Taiwan & their 1st PV of their debut single SUMMER PARTY / LAST EMOTION was aired non stop & the rest's history)

- flumpool (I dare you to listen to Hana ni Nare & not get hooked onto the song on 1st listen & their mini album Unreal's great)

- GLAY (I'm not that familiar with their older works since they have been around for 15 years but their latest single I am xxx is kick ass)

- L'arc~en~ciel (ditto just like GLAY but you can try their latest album KISS which's a great listen & NEXUS 4/SHINE is solid)

- B'z (ah I just discovered recently how f-king awesome they're . Ichibu to Zenbu / DIVE really coverted me to their fan within an instant)

- SID (1 of my current fave bands , it's SID SID SID . Their new album hikari's really cool from the start to the beginning & Uso is beautiful )

I can recommend somemore cool stuff . If you need extra , just let me know about it

Seconding everything on this list. Try perfume too, and everyone in the Nakata family.

female solo wise , if you want something unusual ie. dark classical meets goth , then Kanon Wakeshima's someone you should listen & look out for .

Her debut album Shinshoku Dolce was released this year in Feb . She wrote the whole album & the album's composed by Mana who's her mentor

I also like Kuroki Meisa too whom I love to dub her as Sister Angela (watch One Pound Gospel & you know what I mean) . Her debut mini album hellcat's to me the most surprising debut album of 2009 , mini album wise & her debut single SHOCK -Unmei- is neat
