Introductions for me are awkward,but oh well.
I first started listening to VK stuff about 2 years ago? i guess? See i've always liked and played metal/heavy rock and as a bassist it was always hard for me to find music which appealed to me as a bassist.By this i mean that most metal and rock bands never seemed to have bass players that i could relate to.I like bands with good bass players.Bands that have the bass guitar very audible in the mix.It's not a common thing in most metal or rock besides a select few bands.
I remember a band mate turning me on to anime...the very first thing that stuck out to me was the intros.Wow...I immediately went searching for bands,music,anything i could find coming out of Japan.I was astonished to see just how many bands not only had incredibly talented musicians but seemed to really appreciate the bass guitar in the music.Not only that but the melodies were so different and pleasing.
I then started seeing something that intrigued me.Most of these bands i was enjoying were really striking in their appearance.When i first started playing in bands i played in Glam/Hair Metal bands so this was something that really struck a chord with me.I was hooked ever since and it's very hard for me to even listen to anything from here in the states anymore.
Some of the bands I listen to are: Versailles/Jupiter,Royz,Misaruka,Dear L'Novel,Diaura,Mediena,Lin -the end of corruption world-,Pentagon,Devize,Elysion,Morrigan,Rides in Revellion
