sorry if this is posted before but after listening to a couple of alice nine songs i want to get into more in JROCK music. Any good band w/ music? thanks!! =)

Zwei. Purely simply AMAZING...recommended songs by them are DEFINATELY Shiori Machi (white town) and Dragon...complete genuis.
Then..theres Gazette and all...but I don't really listen to them much...

And UVERworld is AWESOME. I recommend Chance!, D-techno Life.

umum have you heard of LM.C ?
miyavi's old guitarist is lead vocal for that band
i recommend their songs, Sora, Marble S, John, Boys & Girls, Liar Liar

That's mostly visual kei.
Depends on what you want
alice nine. tend to tread a fine line between visual kei and oshare kei

oshare kei bands you might like :
-SuG
-An Cafe
-The Kiddie
-Lolita 23q

visual kei bands you might like :
-The GazettE
-Miyavi
-Nightmare
-12012
-Jealkb

there are some visual kei bands that has left that particular scene for a more mainstream one :
-Dir en grey
-Luna Sea - disbanded
-Glay

Notable j-rock bands may include:
-Mr.Children
-L'arc en ciel (which supposedly during their very early years were visual kei) EDIT: they were in fact NOT visual kei
-UVERworld
-Gackt (once of visual kei band Malice Mizer)
-Porno Graffitti

alice nine is a great band to start off with jrock xD

if you like alice nine you'll definitely like the GazettE, SuG, SID and an cafe i reckon hehe. I also recommend Miyavi (first jrocker i got into), Nightmare and maybe for harder rock try dir en grey, girugamesh, 12012..
Other great jrock bands are L'arc~en~Ciel and Abingdon Boys School

some songs i recommend
Cassis, Chizuru, Reila, Taion by the GazettE
Alterna., Toon Daily Late Show, Cherish by SuG (i love all the SuG songs actually, very cheerful jrock music xD)
Link by L'arc~en~Ciel and Escapism by An Cafe

i need to check out Plastic Tree, i always hear they are really great but havent tried their music yet :X
just listened to Chandelier! they are really good!! definitely recommended <3

Songs by GazettE (order of my liking)

- Cassis
- Reila
- Guren
- Taion
- Hyena
- Chizuru
- some new song in the Guren's new album. track #3
- Filth in the Beauty.
- Baretta
- Knife

[Some of their songs are kind of okay but the ones above are my favorite. Most of their songs are the type that start off slow and then hit the climatic parts which are really amazing. The guitars, bass, and drums are tear worthy.

ICEMAN (was he considered Jrock)

- Shining Collection. I like this song alot for some reason =/

Dir en Grey
Okay, i heard alot of people like their music but to me, is wigs me out.
They sometimes wear white contacts which freak me out.
I haven't tried their music yet but maybe you want to try first? lol

Luna Sea
I haven't heard their songs as of yet but alot of jrockers appreciate their music.

That's easy, I love Shonen Kamikaze ~ WINDER (boku ha koko ni iru)

Since you like alice nine., you'll probably like the GazettE.
