enyx 903 Posted March 25, 2013 Newbie here. I've been looking for a place to discover and keep up to date with new music for a while and this place seems pretty decent. I've already posted in a couple of threads but I guess I might as well "officially" introduce myself. So yeah, name's Pho3nyx (since somebody else already took Phoenix >_>) and I first got introduced to the Japanese music scene around the beginning of 2009 when I stumbled upon DIR EN GREY, who I instantly fell in love with and who has remained one of my favourite bands since. I started off listening mostly to bands associated with the Visual Kei scene, such as the GazettE and D'espairsRay, but over the last year or so I've drifted more towards the indie scene, including bands like HaKU, toe, Prague and 雅-MIYAVI-'s recent material. I just discovered School Food Punishment and absolutely love what I'm hearing... it just sucks that they disbanded already, anybody know any similar sounding bands that are still active? Aside from Japanese music I like a lot of other stuff, I guess some favourite bands include Metallica, Opeth and Enter Shikari as well as a few EDM artists such as Gemini or Xilent. So yeah, that's me! I guess I'll see you guys around. 2 doombox and CAT5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sai 868 Posted March 25, 2013 Nice to meet you, and welcome to the forum! As far as school food punishment goes, you should ask CAT5. I'm sure he'd be willing to help As far as I can say, the vocalist's new project pretty much sounds exactly the same as school food punishment. Their keys has joined a new band now as well (LAGITAGIDA), which sounds like a heavier instrumental version of SFP. I hope that helped! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
