Does anyone know of a band with a guitarist that makes similar sounds as Uki? I used to not care about Hirama vs. Uki because I liked both phases as a whole and not based on their parts, but I have noticed that a lot of the things I like from phase 2 come from uki's cool sounds. So if anyone can point me anywhere I would appreciate it.

I'm hanging out with the Turning Gate dude this weekend. He's a great guy. Met him a few weeks back and we went to a Sogyumo Acacia Band / Fortune Cookie show in Hongdae. Both were fantastic bands. (And incidentally, both bands opened with songs about cats. That's pretty much all I know since my Korean is quite primitive.) Anyway, allow me to reinforce the recommendations on the above site. They're all pretty much great, and a lot of those albums have now materialized in my collection.

Thanks for the recommendations, but since you said they were probably off base of what I asked I was wondering why did you recommend them? |

^ It really just depends on what you consider "cool sounds" to be. You didn't really specify what aspect you were looking for. So...
Slides and bends: Queen. Try stuff like Killer Queen and The March of the Black Queen. Palm muted attack - funk music Muted fast attacks - Various rockabilly artists like Brian Setzer/Stray Cats. Avoid the sub-genre psychobilly though since it's likely too punk for you. Harmonics and other stuff: David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust General tone: country music

I really can't be specific because I really don't know the terms and how each sound is exactly made. But as for punk music, is My Chemical Romance considered punk? I like them, not too much but there are some songs I really like. But they are the only band like that I listen to. I think i'd listen to more punk if they had less annoying singers, although most if it now is pretty baseless crap.
The reason I asked why you recommended those things is because I'm not sure exactly what things you know that I like that you are using to base your opinion on. You said psychobilly is probably too punk for me, is that like "Psychobilly Freak-out"? Because I like that song. I know i've seen some people say that uki is good for country music, but I don't really see the connection and since I don't like country music at all I was unsure why you mentioned it. Do you mean that the guitar alone in country music is like uki? Because if so, I still wont listen to it because I don't like the rest of the sounds. |

No, not in any sense of the word.

well, they don't just use three strings, but there is a lot of playing the same notes with the guitar in several parts of their songs so thats why I thought it could be called punk.
