I actually really love Malice Mizer, theyre ace...Mois dix moi on the other hand, pah mana...rubbish.
L'arc are over-rated, everyone seems to love them, even tho theyre nothing special.
Mad Capsule are ace (better live tho, Takeshi is nuts , too bad they've split up now o_O;
X-Japan are mediocre in my opinion.
Dir en grey's early stuff was amazing (like the gauze album), but their new stuff I dont like.
Fairy Fore and Asian Kung Fu Generation are always good too

I'll admit I love Malice Mizer as well!

Larc are ok from the one song I've heard of theirs.

Moi-Dix-Moi (or whatever) not heard them so I can't say.

I do recommend Gazette though, I'm just getting into them now.  Some of their songs remind me of Slipknot somehow.

Tamaki Nami or is it Nami Tamaki?

Anyway... she's good at upbeat songs.

I don't understand a word of them, at least until I start Nippon connections next year/semester, but they 'sound' upbeat.

And of course google language tools just makes them funny.

My way
Heroine
Realize
Reason
Believe
Get Wild

Admittedly I only really knew some of the songs because they appeared in Gundam but hey this is the Anime society, don't hold my limited views against me.

TM Revolutions are quite awesome as well, again I've got a bias towards songs I've heard in gundam...

Invoke
Zips
Meteor

and

Vestige, not so upbeat.
