    Well as you know I used to like metal, so if you'd asked me this back then:

    Guns N Roses
    The Offspring
    Def Lepperd
    Deep Purple
    U2

    Now my fave artists who are both non-metal (aah, nice music) and are both Japanese are Rikki and Castle Logical. :)

    [​IMG] | dont really like answering in these threads they are always strings of answers with no reference to any previous answers.

    However, due to my love of a particular band i will post.

    Dream Theater - all time favourite band - none come close. Not necessarily Metal but have metal bits/influences.

    I like most of the other metal bands mentioned above so won't repeat them.
