Better Japanese Visual Kei/ Rock band out of these two?

Post by Crowley »

Which one out of these two do you think is better?

ACID
Code: Select all

Abingdon Boys School
Code: Select all

Personally I think ACID is better. Junpei (the singer) of ACID has a really unique voice, it's different but still really good. I think ACID is one of the best Japanese Visual Kei bands, they're just...Let's say "undiscovered". Too bad the singer had to retire :(

As for Abingdon Boys School the singer is also really good. You have to take into account that they're really young and his voice probably hasn't fully developed yet though :\ However their songs don't get much better than INNOCENT SORROW whereas ACID has many good songs.

Also tell me what you think about ACID. Everyone that I have recommended them to think that they're really bad. I guess they just can't appreciate something "different".

To me its the opposite of what you said... the first guy seems to have a more whiney, boy-like voice than the 2nd guy and also the first guy sounds like a typical emo singer IMO. The 2nd guy seems to have a more developed voice. =\ If I had to choose, I'd say 2nd one is better.

Spoiler!


I still think the 2nd one is better although ACID live is better than the actual recording. But you really don't need other peoples opinion to like a certain band, you like the first better so that's all that should matter. :P

I don't know..

Lyrics are very important to me, and since I don't understand what they're saying, I can't really say wich one is better.

I voted both suck, but I'm biased as I hate all Japanese music.

It makes my ears bleed.

And Gackt is a cross-dressing queen. Not cool, bro.
