[warlord]

Thank you, dudes!

Ningen Isu and Solar Anus.

Listened to first album of Ningen Isu. Very specific, but interesting music.

Listening to Terra Nova now and I like it. Listened to the songs of the bands, that in the rest of the list, on YouTube and it's awesome.

[Strappado]

Solar Anus, what an awesome name

Good Korean metal bands are very hard to find. My favorite is Avalanche, who have a split LP with Cratia but their best track is "Farewell to '99'" on the Friday Afternoon compilation.

EDIT: Of course, it just occured to me that they sing in English. :/ For Korean language metal I'd have to recommend Dash or Iron Rose from the same comp.

[SpeedMetalWarrior]

Listen to Rose Rose!

[warlord]

Keir, thanks for recommendation! Can you upload this comp? I just can't find it.

SpeedMetalWarrior, Rose Rose pretty cool band, but they singing in english. That's sad.

First time I heard Loudness singing in Japanese somewhere in the early 80's... Boy, that was weird
Must say I became a fan afterwards.
Haven't I heard they made a comeback recently ?
Can someone confirm that ?

[thegrimwombat]

Good bands that sing in Korean:
Black Hole
Armageddon
Baekdoosan
Barkhouse
Idea
Little Sky
The stuff off of the first two Boohwal records, if you like hard rock and power ballady kind of stuff
Silent Eye (especially the Hellhound record)
Older Sinawe records
Tisams

Just to name a few.

I know that Loudness was on tour not long ago in Holland. I love their old albums, 'The Birthday Eve', 1981, is in my top ten.

For LOUDNESS I can say: the older, the better !! And yes, they sing in Japanese, and sometimes in English, but you won't understand a word because it sounds like Japanese. But one thing is for sure: they are the best Japanese band that I ever heard. There are some others, like Earthshaker (which is also a pretty good band), and if you like '70s hardrock, check out Carmen Maki & Oz. They are awesome !

Japón: Aphasia. Bow Wow, Concerto Moon, Earthshaker, Make-Up, Saber Tiger, Double Dealer, Anthem, Aion

- Loudness is greatest asian heavy metal band. check out album: soldier of fortune & on the prowl. mike vescera on vocal.
- Concerto Moon, on of my favorite neoclassical metal bands. album: from father to son, rain forest & fragments of the moon. this is three best first full length album with takao ozaki in vocal.
- X Japan, awesome band, any style and influence. speed, symphony, progressive & power metal. all album is good.
- Zihard, last i found this korean band., listen to the album: life of passion., a good clear & highly neoclassical metal vocal.

[Heavy Thrashhead]

Earthshaker is a Great Japanese Band That Does Sing in Japanese The Tracklisting Are in English But the Songs Are Sung in Japanese Check 'em Out

Zihard

[Eddiemetal]

Shellshock (Jpn). Best I've ever heard. but alot of what they did was in english...

[Mcniggleston]

It's already been posted above, but Loudness is the way to go.

[StrongerThanEvil]

Don't forget Heavy Metal Army. Not all songs are in japanese but awesome indeed.

[TurboDeathmachine]

Saver Tiger (pre-X japan) Demos
Letticia- Midnight dancer
Moonstruck_ Messiah has died
Ebony eyes (final fight is my favorite song from this band)
Tilt- Beast under your Bed
Precious- To Glory we steer
These are a few off the top of my head. Letticia and moonstruck can be found here.
I am also a huge fan of Make-Up. Sadly, I don't think they could be classified as a Heavy Metal band. I would say they are more melodic hard rock.
