Thanks a lot, Pierre! I feel like Japan's underrepresented on AM (which could change after the next all time update). I got into J-Rock/Visual Kei last year and have been able to discover some fantastic artists since then (Sheena Ringo, Luna Sea, Buck-Tick, Dir En Grey,...). Thank you Arsalan. Yeah...

Record Collector - Top 100 hard rock & heavy metal albums of the 70s/80s/90s (Japan, 2021)

Record Collector is a Japanese magazine dedicated to legacy music and acts. They posted in mid-2021 a set of three top 100 hard rock & heavy metal for the decades of the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. Oddly enough, only one Japanese album is featured out of the 300 entries! http://musicmagazine.jp/rc/r...
