Try listening to what passes as mainstream J-pop/J-rock. By Japanese standards, the vocaloid scene is actually pretty innovative.

I'm not up to date on J-pop/J-rock as of 2022 but things of past years like King Gnu's Hakujitsu or LiSa's First Take performance seem pretty decent as far as fairly popular music goes, and I'm sure I am missing a lot of stuff due to my musical interests having shifted a fair bit over the years.

Hah. I was just about to post how that song earlier reminded me a bit of LiSA https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CwkzK-F0Y00 or the Dorohedoro opening https://youtu.be/_nsNWzypHHg

Innovative by mathcore(TIL this is a genre tbh) standards. Frankly I'd think GP is spot on, even though I love Vocaloid songs.
