It's rare to see a popular Japanese face (bijin) here on the East Coast USA.
There is such a density of people of Korean and Chinese descent on the East Coast of the USA that most people who haven't had exposure or travel to Japanese culture, beauty, aesthetic assume that all people of Asiatic peoples are the same (see list of Asian Nations).
So, without further adieu;- here's a list of "must-know bands" from this month's Shojo Beat Please comment with other suggestions!
Asian Kung Fu Generation
L'Arc~en~Ciel
Every Little Thing

Utada Hikaru
