Ok. Proabably been posted before and discussed a lot. But meh.

Who hears and anime OP/EN/Insert etc etc song, and then looks up the band and then "likes" the band?

For me, I just like certain songs from certain anime, but other than that, I don't look at the band's other material or anything. I usually search for J-rock bands on my own, and I have found a lot of great bands that I will never let go of~

So. What do you guys do? Like a band because they sung and anime song, or look for your own type of music (doesn't have to be J-rock or japanese related)

If I hear anything I like, I keep a copy. That's it.

Though there are exceptions. (If the artist repeatedly release songs that I like, I'll at least pay them a visit at Wikipedia and Youtube)

I think most anime songs are in the same group as American pop stars that drive everyone insane.

They're generic, auto-tunned, annoying, and there's very little musicianship.

Although a select few can be considered "good", I just skip over the crappy OPs and EDs.

If I like a song very much, then I would most likely check out other songs by the same artiste/band. Otherwise, I just look out for other songs I like and download them.

Well if an anime song is really good then i'll download that particular song.

But before i decide if i like that particular band i go to youtube and watch various songs of theirs and if i enjoy most of them then i'll pay attention to their releases and stick with them.

If i dont like them then i'll just download the songs that i like and heard from various animes

I did. Not just the band but the song writer or the arrangement.
Band is easier as most of them are not really anime-only groups.
Picking a special music arrangement need more time.
It's interesting that some songs are only good in the TV edit verion, the rest of them are ...

This band is good at converting girlish anime songs into rock songs
