Hey, what a cool thread. Here are two bands I'm a big fan of that I wasn't exposed to via anime nor are they Babymetal.

Sex Machineguns - Metal Accounting Man

It's just metal. It's great.

Superfly - Morris

Kind of a folksy sounding slightly melancholy acoustic song. Shiho Ochi is disturbingly pretty and so is her voice.

This was one of their bigger hits. Kind of a B-52's pop thing. It's good, just listen to it.

Are all-female or female-lead metal bands starting to become big in Japan or have they been that way for a while? I mean before Babymetal I wasn't really paying attention but now I'm seeing stuff for bands like Band-Maid, Aldious, and...well I know there was at least one more. Just curious if it's because of the success of Babymetal, or if Babymetal was a result of this already-present trend, or if they're mutually exclusive.


Also does anyone by chance know who this was; I saw a video on niconico a few months ago that was brand new, it was two chicks dancing in school uniforms in an empty classroom with the desks pushed back I think. Seemed to be pretty popular. Just can't remember the name of the group. Thanks!
