since I dont want to spam up Alex's thread with un Jpop related goodies I'm making my own.
Music Videos, etc from Japan that I find odd, quirky, and generally awesome. With a speckling of shit I just find good.
first up is one that's been circulating for a little bit now. Kiryu's parody band: My Dragon

insanely catchy band that was fairly popular around 05-06. especially with western anime fans as they were a "Cosplay Band"..... their drummer dressing like edea from fviii most of the time...

Their album Kami no Inu was brillant.
