I can’t believe that I almost forgot this band! Maximum the Hormone is one of my favorite j-bands, not to mention one of the more interesting ones. Anyone who has seen Death Note is familiar with a couple of their songs, such as “What’s Up People.” Yet their song goes past hard rock and metal. A lot of their songs slide on the funk sound and some even go towards pop music. Every song has its own unique sound.
As i said, What’s Up People is one of their more mainstream metal songs.
Koi No Mega Lover definitly has a very different sound than any traditional metal. It’s.. um…. happy? Well most of it is. It has a very odd pop sound to it that really sets it apart.

Rockinpo Goroshi has more of a funk feeling to it. Still metal though.
Maximum the Hormone really has a different sound not common in most bands. It’s a happy metal sounds that makes you rock out and be happy while doing it!
