LM.C (Seven Japanese Bands in Seven Days)

LM.C mashes up an impressive array of influences to produce a wonderfully riotous sound. All of their albums combine elements of hip hop, heavy metal, techno, and rock with a few cheeky classical music quotations thrown in for good measure. Vocalist Maya can pull off everything from a fairly convincing tough guy rap to soaring vocals on the chorus. They are a prolific band, so it might be hard to know where to start. I'd recommend 2008's Super Glitter Loud Box. If you like that, download them all--you won't be disappointed.

Image-wise, LM.C looks like they escaped from a Marilyn Manson training camp. My advice, close your eyes and focus on the music while the video plays.
