there's a book called Japanese Independent Music, it's an A-Z of bands type thing, it's OK but was published about 6 or 7 years ago so it's slightly out of date, plus there are a few other flaws, innacurate discographies, dismissive of certain groups, etc, but as far as i know it's the only book of its kind and it has a guide to record shopping in japan in the back.
plus there's a website called noise.as that has a big article on japanese psychedelia and one on les rallizes denudes which i haven't read but image would at least touch upon the student movement as that's what they were spawned from i think, plus their bassist hijacked a plane and flew it to north korea or something.
