Best Japanese band I can reccomend is Maximum the Hormone. Those guys are fucking ill...

guessing there are 2 japanese bands named Nightmare, my friend used to play in a band called Nightmare, but that band doesnt fit in with the rest of the list at all..

I forgot to add Melt Banana but someone mentioned them already. Also a avant garde sort of band Vampillia. Some of what I listed might not be to your tastes since i tried to ad variety.

I admit Japanese music probably makes up only like 5-10% of my listening diet but here goes anyway, a sample of my l33t Japanese rock tastes

More on the punk and/or hardcore side of things
Ghoul (begins scorching after a minute of piano)
Nightmare (probably the one gizter13 was talking about)
The Stalin
Zouo
Last Bomb
Gastunk
Gas (prolly one of their cuter songs)
Okay instead of being super obvious and posting GISM, enjoy the guitarist's fun side-project instead

More on the darkwave/goth/post-punk side of things
Phaidia
Sex Android (same vocalist as Phaidia, NOT to be confused with visual kei band of same name with bassist that looks like a clown)
RAP
Gakidou
Geil
G-Schmitt
Madame Edwarda
Still
Bardo Thodol
Kokushoku Elegy

I'm not really into J-rock/J-metal, but Dir en Grey is a band I end up coming back to, especially their Uroboros album
