One of my good friends introduced me to this amazing Japanese singer named Kanon Wakeshima. She managed to turn Gothic Lolita into music, and it is so beautiful. I highly advise you to listen to her music, including Still Doll, Skip Turn Step, and Guilty

She's actually being produced under Mana's direction, so it's not shocking that she's going to be seen wearing lolita. haha
I do like Still Doll quite a bit, though I'm not terribly fond of her vocal work in her other work so far. Her cello playing, however, is profoundly impressive. That, even more than her wardrobe for videos and shoots, caught my attention particularly well in Still Doll the first time I heard it.
Also, does anyone else find the old man in the video for that one incredibly, incredibly creepy? Is he supposed to look like a dirty old man peeking in on a girl he's locked up in her own boudoir, or is that just a fault of overacting?

I've never heard of her before now, but wow. She's impressive.
That old man is way creepy. He looks much too happy to be watching her when she's all upset and stuck in a room. *shudders*

Schwarz Stein is the only other one I can think of right now. I'm not sure if there have been others, and Schwarz Stein [according to the wiki page] disbanded in 2004. Looks like Kanon is the one he's focusing on right now.

Nothing exactly like this, no. There are other bands out there that wear lolita or sing with a similar aesthetic, though. Like Love Solfege [this one is odd, because they do music, games and doujinshi; I don't think the three girls who do the music wear lolita], Kokusyoku Sumire and Ali Project.

Ali Project is good. I can add Yousei Teikoku to the list, but wouldn't recommend her if high-pitched annoys you.

Still Doll, Suna no Oshiro, and Kuroi Torikago are my fave songs by her.
