I'm still rather new here, and havn't explored every thread on offer; but i must say, i havn't noticed any J Rock fans yet!
Anime/manga fans often go hand in hand with Jrock!
Anyone gonna come out the Jcloset? XD

I'm more into J-Pop, and all my hardcore VK J-Rock fan friends laugh at me for it AHAHAHAH.
But I like me some abingdon boys school. KAT-TUN (yeah, that KAT-TUN) is turning really VK J-Rocky recently, so I guess they count too?

as far as J-rock goes, X-Japan... I like Initial D, the Samurai Champloo soundtrack, some Utada Hikaru, and there are some theme songs I like from Bleach, Ghost in the shell, and Inuyasha.

UVERworld is an awsome band but is more on the j-pop side.

Probably more of a J-pop guy, but I've hit on various unusual artists (usually by encountering themes they did for Anime) in other genres that I'm addicted to. A good example would be Santara (who kinda defy description. Sort of alternative country rock) and another would be Halcali (also defy description. Somewhere in between Hip-Hop and J-rock, but more Hip-Hop.) As with all music (I've got an incredibly eclectic CD collection) it isn't the genre that attracts me, but the quality of the music.
I haven't really gotten strongly into any true J-rock artists, although I much enjoyed the Pillows' soundtrack for FLCL. I've seen a few artist names here I really haven't looked into, but I plan to at some point.
