I rememberd L'arc back from the good ol' days of Fullmetal Alchemist and wanted to check this out, only to find out the video was deleted on account of copyright violation. So I google the damn thing - the top two video results are deleted for copyright, the third is a link to a translation of the lyrics, and the fourth is a link to the damned mp3 for the song on a filesharing website.

Are you referring to the cover art or the PV? Cause I thought the cover art was pretty hot and then I saw the PV and *o* she was even better. I think Nana must have found the secret to eternal youth because she looks better with every PV.
I've been a huge fan of Sigh for a long time, and recently (in the last year or two) looked into a lot of the other, lesser known metal bands.
Right now, I'm listening to (not exclusively, of course): Sabbat Sigh Metalucifer High and Mighty Color UNITED Boris (a lot of it, but not all of it; a lot of variety)
Any other suggestions?
Favorite by Sigh (not their best, just the first song I heard and made me fall in love with the music):
My favourite music is from anime especially Hellsing, Cowboy Bebop and NHK ni Youkoso OSTs. Also huge fan of Joe hisaishi who writes his music for Gibli studio and Takeshi Kitano's movies.
Here it's his original composition not from soundtracks
Also The Seatbelts with Yoko Kano.
This is just very cool japanese band REGA.
And mad piano Genius Hiromi Yehara
Yes as you noticed i dont really like songs, instrumental parts are much more interesting for me and Japanese music is all about Idols singing or superstyledboys bands so generally its not for me.

Keep in mind that "idol singing" and what not is only a small fraction of the music in Japan. I know a lot of people who work in Japan and they go to shows constantly, and none of them are into that type of music.
Jazz, funk, metal, indie, garage -- Japan has everything that most countries do. You may just need to look harder to find it.
