Maybe I scrolled too fast but where is the Nightmare acknowledgement???
That Deathnote opening is 100% responsible for introducing innumerable people to JROCK/ visual Kei.
(imho haha)
Personally the 3 OGs that got me into VK in no particular order are
Nightmare; the Gazette; and Alice Nine
(Abingdon Boy School is honorable mention if you could count them)
Dir en Grey 100% deserves to be there too but I’ve only listened to Arche lolol
