If the ball were in the Western court, wouldn't that mean we would be on the defense? D:

Hahahah, I kid, I kid. I'm particularly supporting Western rock because of all of the great metal groups that have emerged (and re-emerged) in this decade that have seriously rocked my socks. I mean, totally blown me away. Enough to rethink my standards on the genre.

Hahaha. There's a lot of good metal, I'm a huge fan of Mastodon and Tool. Also, Punk rock was born and died in the West.

Same here, love them <33

After Western rock, half the other stuff just doesn't measure up.

There's not many good Rock bands out there that I'd be interested in, so I guess I prefer Jrock.

Well the only Western rock I listen to is Classic/Prog Rock, so Pink Floyd etc.

Everything I listen to is JRock/JPop etc, so I picked JRock
