    My brother listens to a lot of metal stuff in "Scandinavian/ Norse" (I know such a language doesn't even exist nowadays...and??), and I listen to a couple of things in Japanese.

        Lyrics are rather important to me in music, so no, not really.

        The closest thing would be some Modest Mouse songs which, while in English, make no sense whatsoever.

          1. Interesting technical manuals
          2. Canada
          3. Modest Mouse

              Nope. But it sounds dorky enough that I can make fun of you for it.

                It's a band that doesn't take itself seriously, download Secret Agent by them and you'll see what I mean.

                  I like Rammstein(german) and Puya(spanish).

                  But beyond that my music collection is entirely in english. This may be a good thread for me to ask for recommendations of good foreign music. It is really hard to be exposed to non-english music 'round here.

                  I like hard rock and classic rock mostly. So recommend for me your favorite French, Russian, Japanese, Israeli, Finnish, etc. rock band.

                      The lead singer (literally) sounds like he's retarded and has tourette's in that song.

                      It still makes me laugh for some reason.

                          Japanese rock is mostly bad IMO.
                          Well so are the Raps...

                          Best japanese musics are Pop songs sung by really cute girls.

                            Oh my ****ing God. Asher listens to Modest Mouse?

                            My roommate listens to them, and therefore, so do I. They're good, JW, and I'm shocked that Mr. Matchbox 20 actually listens to them.

                            Props to you, Asher. Props.

                                Nah, I like their more artsy stuff. Kinda like Japanese opera type songs. The folk songs sound nice, too.
