Nightwish, obviously
I would also feel like my love of finnish pop-rock group Indica was strongly disapproved of - except I don't ever talk about them in here so... I've escaped ridicule so far.
Then of course there's my favorite band, Dir En Grey. Again, I don't really talk so much about them. I think the only reason why people don't scoff at me for having this as my favorite band is that they don't really bother with even checking it out. The reason I suspect it
would be a band that provokes eyerolls in here is that that's what happens elsewhere. For some reason, just because a lot of anime fans like the band, they're seen as this **** gimmick band for animu otaku weaboos or something... Whatever. A brilliant band in my book, but they sure do provoke some negative reactions in people. Just not in here. Because no one knows them, maybe.
