The most beautiful Japanese albums?

I'm not looking for any specific genre, although something post-rock would be nice. But you can recommend anything as long as you consider it a beautiful album.

Looking forward to your suggestions!

Where to Find Screamo/Post-Rock/Post-Hardcore Shows in Japan?

Hey everyone, I’m planning a trip to Japan soon and would love to catch some local shows, particularly in the screamo, post-rock, and post-hardcore scenes. Does anyone know good venues, bars, or clubs where these kinds of shows are regularly hosted? I’ll be visiting Tokyo and Osaka so recommendations for any of these areas would be great!

Also, if there are any specific websites or social media groups where I can check for live events and underground gigs, please let me know. Any tips on local bands to check out would also be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Kitamura Fuki - Shiori (whatever genre Yano Akiko is) [2024]

A musician’s musician. Deep understanding of jazz, phenomenal chord selection - an insanely skilled multi-instrumentalist.
Crazy young and super individual too with a bright future.
Clearly influenced by Yano Akiko on this track in particular - others are totally different and electronic - I’d recommend going through her full discography.

Hey, so a website that was pretty good named Indiesmusic.com went defunct. Does anyone happen to know anything similar? Thanks!

Pretty much the title, it was an official website that would link albums to purchase and youtube MVs for the individual indie groups. It was pretty popular. Not sure why it went defunct, but I can't find anything else like it. Thanks for any help!
