I’ve been waiting for a JPop post!

I’m not a huge pop music fan, so does anyone know of some good folk punk/punk/ska/indie Japanese bands they want to recommend? Plz and thank you!

Maybe try Guitar Wolf, Fuji Fabric, Shinsei kamattechan, frederic. Besides Guitar Wolf, the others are more indie. When it comes to folk music I only know Japanese folk metal and enka, but I’m gonna look in to folk punk now lol

Checking them out now, ty! Folk punk is one of my favorite sub genres. I only know of ones from the US and UK. I'm learning Japanese, so I want some bands to practice my listening skills with lol

I honestly want folk punk/punk from every country. I'm only listening to boring English (affectionate) speaking bands, I need to branch out!

I only knew a few punk bands 🥲 10-FEET (I love Dai Zero Kan, and they just released a new song gg Sanzen last week), HEY-SMITH (SAY MY NAME, Rest in Punk), ELLEGARDEN who just resumed activities last year after 15 years of hiatus (Mountain Top, Red Hot, Salamander).

For more indie styles - I guess BBHF which is Yuki Okazaki (from Galileo Galilei)'s another project.

Thank you! I recognize 10-Feet from Punk Japan spotify playlist, I really like them! Checking out the others now!
