Band 3: Violet UK (Also Just Yoshiki and Xjapan) Well he has been around a very long time and if you dont know who Yoshiki is I will give you a brief explination (a better one is found online or in my Concert summary) at the age of 16 Yoshiki got together with his friends and started a band called XJapan in the distant past (between 1970 and 1980) they fast became the #1 band in japan, China, Korea, Europe, and even had major influences in American Rock n Roll. They were the first band to dye their hair and spike it all different ways. Unfortunatly Hide took his own life and the band fell apart. mainly due to the emotional toll of losing his best friend caused Yoshiki to dissapear from the publics eye for 10 years. After he was approched by the Eporer of Japan to write and preform a song for his Reign anniversary Yoshiki found he had greatly missed preforming. he then started doing more classical music and writing songs for American musicians. His most known work in teh USA is the classical rendition of KISS songs. He has done many movie themes and other songs for various occasions and has been putting together music for his new Band VioletUK. There is no set vocalist for Violet UK but teh works range from Womens ballads to songs he is collaborating with Gackt on. I highly recomend listening to his music in every form possible. They are very heartwarming and touching music that often brings me to tears hearing. There are A LOT of places to find Yoshiki info but here are the two he runs personaly: www.myspace.com/yoshiki www.yoshiki.net/flash.phpI nearly forgot there was three sites @-@ here is his VioletUK Site: www.myspace.com/violetuk

Band 6: Saga
Another very new band that has one Maxi single out. I dont think it ships to the USA though I still have to check out cdjapan.com because i really liked their songs. As a hint on their site scroll down the right hand collum to teh bottom and pause that music then go to Discography and you can demo all their songs. I Highly recomend it they are very good ^-^

Band 9: Cool Runnings Well they are named after the Disney Movie but they are not a jamacian style music group. I would classify them between Jpop or Alternative style. Not quite boy group and not quite Rock group. Their music is a bit slow but I liked 3 out of 4 of the demo songs. qrclip.net/cd/et3cqr/01
