My favorite J-Metal band could be classified as Anthem. More details about it:
Wikipedia wrote:
Anthem (アンセム, Ansemu) is a Japanese heavy metal band formed in 1980 in Tokyo. Their music is very similar in style to countrymen Loudness and Earthshaker. Disbanded since 1992, the group reformed in 2000 and released the album Heavy Metal Anthem, a reworking of some older Anthem tunes now featuring noted vocalist Graham Bonnet (lyrics translated into english). Since then, original vocalist Eizo Sakamoto (who hadn't sung with the band since 1987) has returned to the group.
You can see some live performances by them:
Anthem - Night after night
Anthem - Wild Anthem (skip the first minute - contains the concert intro)
Anthem - Onslaught (skip first 3-4minutes - concert intro)
Anthem - Shout it out (first 10 seconds are empty)
Anthem - Venom Strike
If this caught your interest please check my Anthem playlist on YouTube where I will try to upload many of their albums. if you want additional info about this band please contact me.[/quote]
