snowboard_freak 0 Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 G'day everyone! I know this is a bit of a long shot, but i wanted to know if there are any good heavy metal bars/clubs in Japan. Well, in Tokyo, Sapporo and Niseko in particular. I don't like my chances but thought i would ask anyway!! Cheers metal heads! Link to post Share on other sites
sam_casper 0 Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 i'll give ya a heavy metal club.... 5 IRON! im gonna pay for that one hey! MUWAH Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 If it exists, it is probably somewhere in Tokyo! Infact I am almost convinced that here you can find everything that you want and plenty that you dont (or at least didnt think you did). As for where to go... dunno, sorry mate. Do a nightlife search in tokyo on google. I did and found plenty of places to go. It took a while to sort through the junk sites but in the end I found what I was after. Tokyo has quite a big live music scene (alot however is Jazz, which is very nice). Have fun, get pissed, get your nose pierced. Link to post Share on other sites

snowboard_freak 0 Posted October 10, 2002 Author Share Posted October 10, 2002 Yeah, i have had the odd peircing.....but you can never have too many, well nearly never. Besides my next body mod is going to be a tattoo sleeve on my left arm!!! Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 five piercings. More acurately he has 5 things peirced. From this I read that all 5 are not in the one ear lobe. hmmm, how might they be arranged? Let us count the 'things' that can be pieced. 1 ear 1 tongue 1 eyebrow 1 nipple 1 belly button. I believe that there is room for a few more. Link to post Share on other sites

damian 0 Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 A place in Shinjuku called "Code" has some pretty interesting people to see (not really actually, just things that you would probably only see in Japan). I think they have a punk music night once a week. Link to post Share on other sites
sam_casper 0 Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 Do japanese listen to English Music or do they have like the popular Japanese bands too?? I know here in Aus most people listen to American mostly, American bands...?? mmm... i cant imagine punk or metal in japanese its to much of a nice language... ie... german metal and english metal can get really growly and mean sounds very intense...!

damian 0 Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 I saw some really crap Japanese band that seemed 100% inspired by Bolt Thrower (are they still around?). It was in a really small bar in Ginza that gave pretty much anyone a free night on the stage. Link to post Share on other sites

fukdane 2 Posted October 12, 2002 Share Posted October 12, 2002 snowboard_freak Don't laugh - but what (or should that be WHO) is heavy metal these days? Are there many new metals bands out there???? And what do you think of all this nu-metal breed? Please enlighten me Link to post Share on other sites
snowboard_freak 0 Posted October 13, 2002 Author Share Posted October 13, 2002 fukdane - I'm into pretty much all metal, both "nu" and old. My favourite couple of bands have the "nu-metal" sound. Slipknot, Mudvayne, Drowning Pool etc But i also like "old" (from the last decade) metal like - Soulfly, Tool, Slayer, Deftones (borderline "nu"), Korn (their first two alubms are the best!!) al those kinda bands. There seems to be a very constant flow of new bands in heavy metal. The number has definatley been increasing sharply in the last 5 years. Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 Where do bands like "Linkin Park" and all them other hybrid kind of sounds get categorised? metal fans hate them or grudgingly like them? Link to post Share on other sites
