Those aren't toe.
>>
>>54891601
No, it isn't. I don't know who The Blue Hearts are but I'm sure they don't rely on moronic gimmicks, nor does their fanbase pretend to enjoy them

Number Girl are the best Japanese band and /mu/ is pretty goofy for not acknowledging them.

But hey, what can you do when dealing with a bunch of 16 year olds desperately seeking identity through a highly subjective medium.

>>54893013
You are aware that psych rock is not the only genre in existence, yes?
>>
>>54892892
Well I am sort of exaggerating such things in order to get replies and make people a bit angry at my ignorant opinion. I'm trolling, basically. It's 4chan, what else do you expect.

NG are still a really unique band though. They went from being a half-assed Pixies rip-off to fusing dub, post-hardcore, post-punk (Num-Ami-Dabutz is a rip of She Is Beyond Good and Evil by The Pop Group - a band Shutoku is obviously highly influenced by) and traditional Japanese music on their last album, and actually making it work well. They were doing absolutely insane shit that their contemporaries never considered. You look at what Cowpers and Bloodthirsty Butchers were doing and it looks bland in comparison.

And their influence is obvious even today - There are bands that -want- to be Number Girl in the Japanese mainstream. The most obvious is Asian Kung-Fu Generation, beloved by weebs everywhere for their shonen anime OP's.

I feel like they are really underrated here, especially compared to stuff like Midori (gag) or Boris.

>>54892945
Tricot is okay but almost all of their songs sound the same. The Pillows are kind of whatever - They are very hit or miss.
>>
>>54892686
>The Stalin and G.I.S.M completely shit on The Blue Hearts
they completely shit on every other jap punk band too

He doesn't even live in Japan.
>>
>>54893411

>>54893550
This thread isn't about who's important, it's about who's good.
>>
>>54893447
Because toe is actually not that good aside from their first album.

For Long Tomorrow is basically garbage.

They're as bad as LITE now lmao
>>
>>54893590
Except that For Long Tomorrow is actually a really good follow up to the book about their first album.
>>
>>54893447
downy are better.

>>
>>54893755
wowaka pls
>>
>>54893718
Univers zen ou de zéro à zéro and Myth of the Love Electrique are their best studio albums in my opinion. And all of their live albums are great.

>>54893755
Yes, dear?
>>
>people actually like Acid Fedoras Temple

>>54893876

Reread the post you replied to.

>>54893924
Pale Cocoon, Adballoons, Ironomi, Hiroshi Yoshimura, Motoharu Yoshizawa, Guitar Wolf
>>
>>54894116
he asked for a link. i gave him a link.
>i can't find anything by them that's in the same genre or style as toe.
they are both post/math rock.
>>
>>54894168
From the songs that came up in their YouTube playlist, they sounded nothing like math rock, and certainly not a similar style to toe. It sounded more like post-hardcore or emo stuff, nothing remotely mathy about it.
>>
we can at least agree that Boris is overrated, right?
>>
>>54894295
yeah not bad tho also wata is a qt
>>
>>54894205
then u r dum and do not know what math rock is
>>
>>54894437
ok keep thinking that
>>
>>54891491
that's not 385
>>
>>54891491
No, but RINDA RINDA is one of the greatest pop punk songs ever written and I will fight anyone who disagrees. But my favorite elven band is JAM so what the fuck do I know
