Looking at the picture. Are Gallhammer the only japanese band around that don't look like they're from the glam scene?

Haha, that's like saying "compose your own Metal album and upload it here, instead of writing a review of an album". :lol:

I think it's pretty nice that they got nominated. I always respected them as a band and for their history.

This must be due to all the touring the did in the US. Good luck to them, i doubt they will win, but its definately good exposure for them into the western music scene.

I know enough about X Japan to say that they aren't terrible. But I think that the Golden God awards are a complete joke. No band nominated deserves any kind of recognition. All except for a few of the international band nominees.

Dahlia is a masterpiece, and I'll always appreciate the early albums. Any news on the new album?

The only japanese bands I know of (then) are X-japan, Sigh (who'm I'd forgotten about when I posted), Versailes, Blood Stain Child and Gallhammer. Except for the two black bands, they're pics here all ahve an abundance of makeup and lace.
And Risa Reaper's not ugly.
