J-Rock stuff.

How about using your MTV ties to gather up some good world music? Romanize the lyrics and you'll be sure to make a lot of J-tards happy. :D

Asian Kung-Fu Generation, L'arc En Ciel, Luna Sea, Nightmare, Rentrer En Soi.. I'm sure people could suggest a lot of good rock bands out of the non-english speaking parts of the world.

As for english suggestions, let's get some Greenday, Offspring, Smashmouth... Some of those old catchy 90's bands.

Dir En Grey and The Pillows for J-Rock, also if you wan more good non english, Vintersorg is amazing, though fitting them in Rock Band may be hard.

they'd have to have buck-tick and miyavi (definitely just for his guitars =]). gackt could help pick up the vocal end though. malice mizer is a good classic too~

Offspring

Self Esteem, would be nice.

Too bad that most of the labels with those bands are not affiliated or have signed contracts with MTV and Harmonix. I know that Dir en grey was asking people on their Japanese forum if there were any songs to consider for the game, but I think those would be for a European (or eventual Japanese) release of the game.

Luna Sea, L'Arc-en-Ciel, and Asian Kung-Fu Generation are all part of subsidiary labels or branches that are affiliated with Rock Band so I could actually see it happening.. for a Japanese release.

is rock band even gonna have a japanese release?

[eliandthecottonjins]

Rock Band is Region free so the 12 people in Japan that care can import it.

and I see ALOT of stuff that mirrors what I suggested in a previous thread.

Don't leave Hyde's solo stuff out. Like Hello and Countdown.
