Fun Stuff > BAND
What the fuck did he just say?
GarandMarine:
I listen to a lot of foreign bands, J-rock/J-pop thanks to anime, and some K-pop thanks to Gangnam Style (Psy's "Right Now" is a better song then Gangnam Style...), Metal bands of various nationalities, though English seems to be the common language of glorious heavy metal, but Rammstein's lyrics are art, even if I can't play their aldumns in the same state as my German immigrant grandparents for fear of my grandmother's wooden spoon even though I'm well into my 20s. Then it's Bollywood and Bangra, which makes me wish I knew how to dance, and a mix of some Middle Eastern groups.
...yeah I have kinda eclectic taste in music... I'll go now...
Welu:
I like Rammstein. This thread inspired me to download some Silbermond. I listened to a lot of German pop/rock bands when I was learning German in school. Switching computers and just over time I lost a lot of my old music. I like it about as much as I remember but am sad I can't remember enough German to translate it in my head as it is sang.
Can't remember any other bands I listened to but my only source was the teaching assistant so I just listened to whatever they liked.
I also used to listen to a lot of, sad to just say Asian pop. I think it was mostly J-pop and K-pop. I was a big weeaboo when I was younger so would download anything vaguely "animu" to me.

Yet she does it just like that. Seriously, in a live situation she can switch from beautiful clean singing to a brutal growl in the blink of an eye, easy as breathing. There's another Russian singer, Daria Stavrovich, who I've also seen/heard do this. Mother Russia sure knows how to breed 'em.
As to the thread topic, I probably listen to more foreign language music than English... naming every one would take all day... but there's a lot of Icelandic and Russian in there.
mtmerrick:
I've got a thing for Gaelic singing.
Japanese and Korean music are great (not necessarily j/k-pop, but more alt rock/punk style stuff.)
also, you're not human if you don't enjoy the original german 99 Luftballons.
trstn:
I listen frequently to:
Japanese
Envy / Polysics / Boris
and some more to their new album Meir.
Norwegian
Kvelertak
The understanding of the actual words being sung is not a part of my music enjoyment. Being born as a non English speaking European I'm very used to the fact not to understand the language of the music I'm listening to in the Radio while growing up. Most of it was English.
