Maximum the Hormone (Japanese metal)

[Anarky]

They are actually the band at the end of the video. For some reason I downloaded their album and its actually kinda fun.

(I think they did the song for the 2nd opener of Death Note)

Holy F... the 2nd Death Note intro? Oops, now I read the bottom of your post-- yes this is DEFINITELY the 2nd opener for Death Note. Hell they have a guy writing in a notebook in parts too.

Niiice. The only thing that would be better is if there were subtitles Is that guy Japan's softcore version of Manson? Never saw a decent japanese goth. Also thought it was funny that the one guitarist had a Tool shirt on.

I found the "rappers" interestingly scary.

I really dug the kabuki/metal outfits in the beginning.

If you want *good* Japanese rap, check out M-Flo. But I have to admit that that was mildly entertaining.

Heh, I'm reminded of a cool Japanese metal song on one of the DDR games. It was really fast and fun to play on DDR. (Found it.)
