It's the 2nd biggest music industry in the world, but it doesn't really market itself abroad, in general. J-Pop dominates though, making it very hard for bands in underground scenes to break out.
Agreed. It’s crazy to me as someone who was into jpop, jrock, jmetal, & kpop back in the very early aughts seeing things now and the mainstream popularity of kpop. Even among j-music lovers/circles, K-pop was still rather ignored then…. But I had an early love of BoA kwon lol.
@@sorenjunkers3834I don't think they are ripping off western music any more than a western band playing that style is. They do very much do their own thing though. Other than the very mainstream boy band crap, they don't really sound exactly like western bands.
@@RevStickleback wtf are you talking about boyband? we are not in the 90s. they are still ripping of every western trend with some delay. cultural imperialism ruined the whole world.
Should have mentioned those Japanese bands that were so influenced by Italian hardcore bands like Negazione or Declino they started singing in (very) broken Italian. The two most prominent ones are Isterismo and Tomorrow.
Japan punk bands make nearly every other punk band throughout the world seem like a children's choir. I'd never heard Japanese punk (or music really) until I randomly saw Melt Banana perform in my city. It was like being hit in the chest with a missile.

omg this comment is 100% correct lmao, listening to japan pop punk , that's literally changes my ears to punk rock music and japan scene was the heaven with double pedal and fast riff
I’ve heard Indonesia has a pretty significant punk scene as well, and some of the areas that are under sharia law have specifically targeted punks and arrested them
Those people with mohawk who have been caught are just a bunch of homeless people wearing punk fashion. I'm highly doubt they are educate themselves since most of them are just into the fashion or we can call them as posers. I know it since I often meet them on the streets and having conversations with them which I pretty much disappointing about what is in their mind and what they are doing. Edit: I'm not a gatekeeper. In fact most of them who has been caught now turned into just a bunch of normal kids who never feel threatened by anything at all. And sone of them are become fascist muslim extremist. But for the music, Indonesia has quite a lot of punk/hardcore bands. For today, I can say people here are making the same hardcore punk style as what they called "mutant hardcore" sounds like Gag, Zip, Scowl and similar like those in past 2 years in my hometown. If you go to Malang city, their music are more like metallic hardcore and beatdown/slam like that. They are rising massively in past five years.
You forgot Saveki from GISM pulling almost as insane shit as Eye, including, but not limited to: firing guns with live ammunition over the crowd, attacking the crowd with a chainsaw, setting himself on fire and jumping into the crowd, straight up burning the front row of the crowd with a flamethrower before being attacked.

Listen to Sabbat and Metalucifer. Best japanese metal bands hands down. Sabbat is one of the earliest too Some others: Magnesium, Casbah, Sacrifice (jp), Gorgon (jp), Abigail, Barbatos
@@cinamonrollcutie2210 Paledusk is goated Saw them in Australia last year and even my friend (who doesn't even like their music that much) said that after the one show, they've become his favorite live band just from their massive and awesome stage presence. And to the person who recommended Hanabie., you're damn right. I'm hopefully going to see them this year and I already love their music, can't wait to experience Yukina belting it out live 🤘
I was amused as I had a discussion some years back with a japanese guy at a punk gig in Finland. I already knew that e.g. Finnish hardcore punk band 'Kaaos' is very popular in Japan and the guy told me that in Japan there's at least one band that create similar style of music as 'Kaaos' and that they've learned Finnish language from the songs and uses that knowledge to write their own 😂 To point out the influence of 'Kaaos', even Max Cavalera has their patch in his vest ('Terveet Kädet' and 'Lama' are some of his other Finnish favourites).
There are a few Japanese hardcore punk bands that have Finnish names and also sing in Finnish. Some that come to mind are Äpärät (there's also a Finnish band called Äpärät), Poikkeus (like @lo0ser555 mentioned), Solpäätos, Varaus SS (I think..), and Laukaus. Incidently, Vaarallinen from Singapore also sing in Finnish.
@@lo0ser555 I hadn't heard of them but according to discogs they only mention an electronic band from Finland called Haava while the one from Japan plays hc/raw punk.
Cool to see SS included in this. So many to list but I feel Gauze are so crucial to Japanese punk/HC. Almost 40 yrs in the scene and breaking up recently. A huge influence on the UK crust scene with Chaos UK, Napalm Death.
i remember discovering Gauze and GISM as a kid, 20years later still digging, so many gems! Japanese punk/hardcore/whatever is top notch! just like Italian, Finnish, Yugoslavian etc! Cheers!
Love les rallizes denudes and acid mothers, lsd march are also a rad group. Anything that played at the oz venue in japan is pretty much worth checking out
In Japan, there is something called loud rock which is literally a blend of post hardcore, metalcore, emo, nu metal etc and it plays a large role in the Japanese hard rock scene. One ok rock literally comes from this scene
@@dagoblinwizard fear and loathing in vegas, sim and coldrain are kinda 3 of the biggest loud rock bands right now, even my first story, crystal lake and crossfaith are of that sound
Great video mate. Anyone watching who hasn’t heard GISM’s Detestation LP it’s worth a listen it’s absolutely crazy with distorted guitars and vocals with metal guitar solos such a great band. They also used to dress like KISS 😂

7:45 except, it did, just in a backwards kind of way. Look at bands like TRiDENT, or Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, or Passcode. There are plenty of popular Japanese bands that were clearly heavily influenced by pop punk, metalcore, and hardcore, all off shoots of punk. I'd even go as far as to say that musically, there's members of the Visual Kei scene that were influenced by pop punk. The key difference is they came up as influenced by the western versions of that genre, rather than growing from an internal scene.
I'm more on the pop-punk/Ramonescore side of things, but here's a short list of some of my faves in Japanese punk Nobodys Hi-Standard Polysics Peelander-Z Boobs Shit Kingons 50Kaitens SpecialThanks Balzac Wienners Grizzly Mach Pelican
bro...Ive been to a live in Kyushu (Tenjin), it was CRAZYYYY. violent but safe people, awesome music, came home with a ringing ear that lasted a week! Even made a rando friend who was literally cutting an anarchy symbol on his chest on the spot shouting in my ear "daijobu dayou!"
I’ve seen The Boredoms, RUINS, Melt Banana, Invisible Man’s Death Bed, Ultra Bide, & a couple other Japanese bands. None were traditional punk, but it’s certainly an influence.
Some other newer and/or better known bands from Japan that are worth looking at are Hazard, The Erections, Extinct Government, Warhead and Hat Trickers.
I realty wanted you to talk about bands like Midori and BLEACH amongst other women in Japanese Punk, but overall, great video. Hope you can talk about those bands somewhere in the future as they are pure gold
interesting I guess there is enough different "punk" scenes now that there can be different ones that are kind of discrete elements from other scenes and even someone clued into japanese punk might not know about it at all.
awesome video ^^ I got to see Endo Michiro (vocalist of the stalin) live before he passed away. It was amazing! I do need to disagree with the idea that punk never went mainstream in Japan. I might even argue that it is more mainstream here than in the west. Blue Hearts basically changed everything. It is just that the kind of punk that is mainstream is more in line with that of the blue hearts kind of sound, or even ska influenced, than hardcore or avant garde like a lot of the cool bands you mentioned here.
Despite The Blue Hearts not being as hardcore, signing to major labels and in time turning to alternative rock, their attitude of punk was still pretty solid even more compared to other well-knowned punk bands of the west
You should make a vid on Cleveland's mid 70s underground music scene. It seems unlikely the Japanese punk groups had any knowledge of it, but they were definitely on the same wavelength as the electric eels, Pere Ubu, and Rocket from the Tombs. The argument could be made that the Cleveland scene was the first complete break with the "classic rock" tradition in America.
You should check out, gingnang boyz, one of the craziest japan punk band i’ve ever listen to, their first 2 album (which released simultaneously) are so raw and really straight in your face, their stage performance really awesome, their music kinda fills my rage and anxiousness at the same time, it’s wonderful, highly recommended
Japan also has an amazing heavy metal scene, in my opinion one of the best in the world. I feel like Asian countries suffer less of shitty pop/rap music that is blasted everywhere in western countries
@@eltiogroudon Nah I disagree, and that's having lived for 11 years in south east asia. It's definitely there, but rap for example is way more present in the west. Depends on the country (most south east asian countries do not have a good metal scene, only indonesia probably) Japan is the only one with amazing bands coming out
You talked about punk bands, but you didn't mention a lot of influential acts like the Comes, Guitar Wolf, Midori, Otoboke Beaver, and Inu. I wish you talked more about the evolution of the scene. Cool video tho. "Also they weren't doing grossly illegal stuff on stage." You literally just talked about the Sex Pistols lmao. Also G.G. Allin
4:02 i wasn't expecting to recognise any of the bands in this video, but weirdly i know hijokaidan from their hastune miku noise music cover album called hatsune kaidan, lol
Check out Japanese Oi! I think one of the comps I heard was Oi! of Japan. The influences incorporated into their Oi! is wild and one of a kind. Also, there is a Japanese tribute to Operation Ivy that is... Interesting. Some of the bands don't know a lot of the lyrics, so they may repeat a verse over and over, or just spout gibberish. There is a decent amount of really cool Asian punk in general of all genres.
The 90s Japanese Crust Scene was CRAZY! RUclips the set of live videos called something like "Punks Spending Loud Night" (not a typo) I think there are up to four volumes. I've never seen a crowd go so wild, puts mid 80s early 90s NYHC crowds to shame.
Still have the GISM cassette I bought as a teenager in the early 2000s .. i've thinned out my collection over the years, but it's sentimental reminder of my time in NJ post 9/11
You should think about doing "an ignorant guide to skinhead" i think that would be really good for most people, as well as make quite a bit of room for some jokes.
5:00 In Wikipedia it says that they had a live show (it did not say whether it was their first live show) where they had a de'd cat and cut it in half with a machete.
Was just talking about how GISM and Disclose were some of the best punk bands, with some friends the other day. wonder if my data being sold has anything to do with this being recommended.
I feel like J-rock and J-pop goes heavily under the radar for western audiences. Most J-pop still incorporates the guitar in some way and they even still have guitar solos in their pop songs which is amazing compared to how bland and samey most western pop is nowadays
Every time a video covers this topic I know the excavator incident is going to be talked about… …I know it and it still gets funnier every time I hear it.

JMetal is not one of the best,its the best
Dude I love your vids wtf lol
Insane to see footage of the monk of Lützerath randomly popping up :D
You talked about punk bands, but you didn't mention a lot of influential acts like the Comes, Guitar Wolf, Midori, Otoboke Beaver, and Inu. I wish you talked more about the evolution of the scene. Cool video tho.
"Also they weren't doing grossly illegal stuff on stage."
You literally just talked about the Sex Pistols lmao. Also G.G. Allin
Great vid
4:02 i wasn't expecting to recognise any of the bands in this video, but weirdly i know hijokaidan from their hastune miku noise music cover album called hatsune kaidan, lol
Thanks..
Cheers from Orange County California 🇺🇸
Check out Japanese Oi! I think one of the comps I heard was Oi! of Japan. The influences incorporated into their Oi! is wild and one of a kind. Also, there is a Japanese tribute to Operation Ivy that is... Interesting. Some of the bands don't know a lot of the lyrics, so they may repeat a verse over and over, or just spout gibberish. There is a decent amount of really cool Asian punk in general of all genres.
I thought the Yugo punk scene was wild but this one tops it lmao
Do you guys have clip where they do a upside down stunt.. or whats it called?
The 90s Japanese Crust Scene was CRAZY! RUclips the set of live videos called something like "Punks Spending Loud Night" (not a typo) I think there are up to four volumes.
I've never seen a crowd go so wild, puts mid 80s early 90s NYHC crowds to shame.
Japan's hardcore punk scene has a ridiculous number of high quality bands, especially metallic hardcore, crust and dbeat.
There are 2 J-Punk bands i love, Four tomorrow(sadly they never got big and broke up) and The Ging Nang Boys. 2 Vastly different sounding bands
Still have the GISM cassette I bought as a teenager in the early 2000s .. i've thinned out my collection over the years, but it's sentimental reminder of my time in NJ post 9/11
My favorites for the newcomers
Balzac

Kruelty
And I can’t remember more cuz I’m drunk😅😂
I’m surprised you didn’t mention Bōsōzoku at all
I feel like my attention span has been permanently harmed by the editing style of this video
When i listen to punk, i listen to GiSM
"(Tere their) syphilitic vaginas to pieces" is a funny song
the background music is driving me mental
You should think about doing "an ignorant guide to skinhead" i think that would be really good for most people, as well as make quite a bit of room for some jokes.
What was that noisy music that played in the outro? It picked my interest.
well that and the music that plays along the entire video, I think it's the same actually...
goddammit another one of those videos
5:00 In Wikipedia it says that they had a live show (it did not say whether it was their first live show) where they had a de'd cat and cut it in half with a machete.
Yeah too risky for YT unfortunately, or fortunately lmao.
Melt-Banana is a good example of Japanese punk with their wild experimental noise influences!
no mention of Kuro, Mobs, Swankys, or even Disclose?? I’ma need a part 2
Was just talking about how GISM and Disclose were some of the best punk bands, with some friends the other day. wonder if my data being sold has anything to do with this being recommended.
My favorite Japanese DIY punk bands are Conga Fury, S.O.B., Maximum the Hormone, and Melt-Banana
Swarrrm with Hatada on vocals was some of the hardest shit ever
I can imagine a dude being like, "Woah! I loved that band! The lead singer punched me in the mouth back in 82!"
Hope you will grow a mohawk it's geting too rare these days. subscribed.
Would've been interesting to hear about bands like Gauze, Lip Cream, and S.O.B. as well.
Disclose.
@@xerodelacroix5552 pretty much all of Japan's D-Beat n Crust Scene in general deserves its own video lol
S.O.B ❤
GAUZE is based
Whats the band at 2:33. The dance moves are awesome!!!
Search about a Brazilian band called "gangrena gasosa". One of the most isane and schizo bands you will ever see
do a vid about the bristol punk scene
you could do a vid on soviet rock music
Check out the band "Smash your Face". Great Japanese hardcore punk
I feel like J-rock and J-pop goes heavily under the radar for western audiences. Most J-pop still incorporates the guitar in some way and they even still have guitar solos in their pop songs which is amazing compared to how bland and samey most western pop is nowadays
Yes this is so true!! My exact thoughts when I listened to Eve for the first time
Every time a video covers this topic I know the excavator incident is going to be talked about…
…I know it and it still gets funnier every time I hear it.
