JRock Distortion with Hanumaan

Posted on 03. Jul, 2010 @ 9:01 am by in Media, Music Views: 772

HearJapan turned me on to this Japanese band called Hanumaan. I picked up their album and it’s really good stuff. Energetic. Fun. Fast. Somehow rustic (maybe it’s the grainy video).

They recently toured with Asian Kung-fu Generation, another band that I really like.

Yup. These guys are hot.

Go ahead, tell me you don’t like em. I haven’t found any music that I can really get into here in China, so I keep falling back on my Japanese stuff to keep my language skills going. If anyone knows any rocking Chinese bands, do let me know!
