How big is the metal scene in Japan? What is it like nowdays?

I am a huge fan of classic Japanese metal. For all intents and purposes, I've heard that classic Japanese metal was obscure, even during their time and that modern Japanese metal is either a mirror of US glam rock or power metal esque arrangements.

Can someone tell me about the history of Japan's metal music, how popular it is and some signature bands?

I know: Flower Travellin Band, Magnesium, Sabbat, Gorgon, X Japan, Volcano, Loudness, Outrage, Sigh, Demetori, Xion, Iron Chino
