Japan has weird taste in metal. My friend Jake in Aether Realm has a picture of a Japanese chart that had their album at the #1 spot for a week. And they are a small NC band.
Japan has weird taste in punk too. The Fat Wreck band Hi-Standard plays one show a year, in Japan, where they sell out a baseball stadium. It's so popular that from what I understand, there's a lottery for the tickets.
