It's crazy how much CSM is contributing to my playlist rn yea XD

I've heard of that anime, gonna check it out soon :) If you like instrumental stuff, I'd give the Irisu Syndrome playlist a listen. I recently been on a spree with cheap VNs from Steam and the most recent one I read was "Sound of Drop: Fall Into Poison" and man I love this track and this one. The second one plays at the start of the novel and that shit sucked me in hard lol (I was running a timer to see if I wanted to keep it xD). Love these composers.

I mostly just listen to japanese music and older rock/rap so I agree with you on that last part, don't really like newer artists except for a few (Doja Cat has some nice songs). Like you said, the variedness of japanese music is a big part of that draw, especially these newer songs. Like, I fucking love the dude's voice from one of Chainsaw Man's outros. So damn good. I don't forgive MAPPA for the AOT stuff but this is good lol
