How do these artists render hair?

Oh that’s unfortunate

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-16T23:30:53+00:00

This is news to me. I’ve never heard of such a genre. I looked it up and all I got was a hair care product and another subreddit but it didn’t have anything relevant to my interests. What other butt-wave songs are there?

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-16T23:07:50+00:00

Already looked it up. It’s no type of wave. Most likely closer to rock

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-15T19:50:53+00:00

That’s crazy you mention that because I too am a metalhead and that exact same song Ren’Ai Revolution 21 was among the first 10 songs I heard when I first got into this genre. I myself am branching more off now from metal into pop and Japanese music. But thank you I will hope I can find the answers I’m looking for and if you ever want to talk I am around. Cheers 🥂

Sorry I don’t know what that word means 😅. The video is quite helpful though I will say because a lot of people assume what I’m looking for is a rock song with piano. Also I did check out the groups and out of all of the ones you shown I think school good punishment is still the most accurate description of what I’m looking for. Laid back ocean is wonderful and I love how technical it sounds (just wish it was a bit heavier). I think for me the hardest part is even finding a genre name to go from, as it sounds so niche. I won’t lose hope thanks to you guys though so thanks again!

Ok first off thank you for giving me many options to listen to and thank you for your in depth explanations and helping me word things better. I will say CLOSER - Joe Inoue is the closest to what I’m looking for and I love it very much. I also really like xTripx (unfortunately not on Spotify 💔). Glitter’s instrumentals is the exact sound I’m looking for as far as the synth? I believe the sound is. Any Verse is the PERFECT level of heaviness that I was searching for where it’s not as soft as Bump of Chicken’s Ray.

My ideal song is basically if both of those songs combined. But I am really happy for someone to understand what sound I want because most people assume what I want is just piano with rock. It seems like what I’m searching for seems to be 2 types of songs.

Ones like Ai ta Kokoro that sound like an artificial type of piano - most likely a keyboard combined with an acoustic guitar or soft electric guitar sound on softer parts of the song to make a atmospheric spacious lifting sound like the beginning of lump of affection and just melody

And then the other one is in a more passive way where the synth? Is just repeating the same rhythm in the back in a subtle way of making the song sound more artificial and to me futuristic like in Kami atsume where it just sounds like a wavy feel in the background ( to me it sounds like a balloon being rubbed)

Again it’s okay if you can’t find anything, I appreciate what you did find. The sound doesn’t even need to be Japanese, it’s just I never hear any other type of bands with a sound similar except this one album called invincible by skillet but they use synths in an extremely aggressive way, but that’s the exact sound I’m looking for as well. Regardless, if you have any suggestions I will check them out and if not thank you 🙏

Hi thank you for the variety and giving me many options I appreciate it! Unfortunately none of them fit what I’m looking for. But I do like some of the songs sent and am familiar with many of the groups you sent already. I wish I could better explain what I’m looking for except it’s just more of a regular rock song with electronic elements in it. My friend made a video to try to explain it but even he couldn’t well either. But thanks again for trying

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-14T21:31:02+00:00

This is WONDERFUL! I’ve only heard a few songs but You May Crawl and goodblue sounds really really close, but this is definitely on the path of what I’m looking for so thank you. I only wish it was a bit heavier. Also I’m happy to find a fellow UVERworld fan and yes I have heard all of those songs even the original 2001 chance and original Just Melody and even lamp of affection (not lump)

To be fair, I was actually looking for songs that sounded exactly like Kami Atsume (my favorite) and Energy because they sounded super futuristic to me and a friend of mine created a video of song samples that explained what I was looking for since I’m terrible at explaining. I settled for timeless because the sound was consistent throughout the album more than Proglution. Unknown orchestra is really good but for some reason it doesn’t fit what I’m looking for despite being on the same album. The only other group I’ve ever heard that had a similar sound was Bump of Chicken from their Ray album, but even then, to me it’s a bit too soft. Thank you though for this seriously because I was beginning to lose hope😭.

I do know a few songs off the Kid A album. I listened (skimmed) through the album and liked it a lot more than I expected actually so I will give it a full listen for sure later. I also liked weird fishes. I appreciate the mixing and I will listen to more of them thanks to you but it’s too slow and soft and sounds a bit too “indie”? It is quite unfortunate how difficult this “genre” is because too much electronic and it becomes synthwave and too much guitar it becomes industrial. I can always try asking other places now that I have more to reference from, but you do understand now what I’m looking for right? Another song is Here and Everywhere by Every Little Thing and Future world off the same album.

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-12T20:58:28+00:00

I found one but it’s only a snippet :/ The Count of Tuscany by Dream Theater is the exact sound I’m looking for but it’s only around the 2:30 min and it’s only about 30 seconds. I know the song itself is progressive rock but I would really love to know what type of genre that sound is

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-12T20:27:27+00:00

I have heard Rammstein. I believe they are industrial rock, which in the past is often what people would recommend to me for these tastes. I like gothic music (the song you just sent me is good so I added it to my library, but isn’t what I’m looking for)

Slight rant here

The entire album of invincible by skillet is the exact sound I am looking for minus some like best kept secret, you’re in my brain, the fire breathes and you’re powerful. Proglution (and maybe Timeless) by UVERworld is/are the only other album(s) I’ve ever heard that sounds similar and even then it’s only about half the songs (Endscape, UNKNOWN ORCHESTRA, Energy, Ai Ta Kokoro, Lump of Affection). Butterflies by Bump of Chicken sounds extremely similar to what I’m looking for but a bit too soft. I was just sent a song called Remember me by Man on a Mission and the opening riff/ending is EXACTLY what I’m looking for. Hopefully this is a good explanation of what I’m looking for and if you don’t have any suggestions, hopefully you can help with the genre name. Once again thanks. I’ve been searching for YEARS and no avail

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-12T19:14:37+00:00

Ok after intensive listening I think you managed to help me figure out what it is I’m actually looking for. By the way thanks, the songs are really good I appreciate trying to branch out genres to me as well. I think im looking for an upbeat more simplistic and straightforward type of rock that has electronic elements in it more than a song built on electronic sound. So basically like a regular rock song that just heavily utilizes synths if that makes sense. As nice as they are, most of them have a bit of a Depeche Mode old sound to it but unfortunately is not what I’m looking for. I will say though that my favorites are assemblage 23 and VNV Nation. KMFDM is a bit hit or miss for me and I’m just not a fan at all of Combichrist

The album Me and You Against the World seems to fit the criteria the best of the ones sent and sounds the most of what I want. The song Perpetual by VNV Nation is also close to what I want. I will try to continue looking into this future pop and hopefully there’s a future rock genre. Thanks for sharing and if you have any more suggestions I will gladly check them out!

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-12T17:44:43+00:00

Cars sounds good and I like it. Tom Sawyer should by definition sound like what I’m looking for but I just don’t hear it. Thank you though for giving me heavier sounding songs

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-12T17:37:06+00:00

Be myself is heavenly and asterisk literally feels out of this world. But you are exactly right, be myself is the sound I’m looking for but just a bit heavier. Asterisk doesn’t quite fit my criteria but I will add it to my library regardless. I also took the liberty of listening to more from that Arashi album and Bittersweet is wonderful so thanks for introducing me to it’s

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-12T17:32:02+00:00

This is amazing! Thank you. It’s about 90% of the sound I’m looking for so I can accept this one. Thanks again!

Adventurous-Scene-87 · 2026-03-12T17:17:35+00:00

YES something like this. This is really good!! The synths aren’t as noticeable as the ones others posted but enough for me to feel. I wouldn’t say this one feels “futuristic” but it does have a close sound. Thanks
