kissapuu 4 Posted September 18, 2013 Hellooo! My name is Andreas, I'm 22 and I live in a fabulous country called Finland (that's internet sarcasm there). I found this forum while looking for some jrock forums, and this looks like a pretty nice place so I thought I'd give it a shot! I started listening to Japanese music sometime between 2004 and 2005 through some anime (Nana Kitade, Porno Graffiti... I was into Fullmetal Alchemist), but the band that really pulled me into this stuff was Plastic Tree, which I still consider one of the most important bands in my life (alongside Mucc) even though they haven't gotten as much listening lately as they'd deserve. Some of the stuff I like is Mucc, Plastic Tree, Deadman, the god and deathstars, Diru (Uroboros and Spiro Spero mainly), Munimuni, 9goats black out... X, Buck-Tick, the pillows, Midori, Yura Yura Teikoku, Shiina Ringo, Ogre You Asshole, Laruku etc. etc. the list could go on and on. Other than Jrock, I like post-rock, atmospheric black metal, sludge, blackened death, shoegaze and blackgaze, folk, anything dark-ish, melancholic and/or atmospheric basically. But I also like some trip-hop, dream pop, chamber pop, electronic, blues, jazz, swing... whatever man. You name it, I probably will be pretty unbiased about it (doesn't mean I will like anything unconditionally, but you know). I play guitar and, as of recently, a bass, my dream is to create music and I'm into all kinds of visual stuff, above all, photography. That's about it? I hope you don't mind having me around, I'll be looking forward to spending time here! 1 CAT5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kissapuu 4 Posted September 19, 2013 Thanks y'all! By the looks of it you people have pretty diverse taste in music too, which is great! It's not really always the case with these Jrock communities... I mean, it's cool to be hardcore fan of something, but if 80% of active users in a forum dedicated for Japanese music in general are actually Gazette fans or something... then maybe it's time to make a dedicated Gazette forum and leave the general forum for other stuff. Not to give a bad rap to Gazette fans or anything, it's just the first thing that came to mind when trying to think of a very vocal, fiery fanbase (or are Gazette no longer "a thing"?)

kissapuu 4 Posted September 19, 2013 I really like your music taste. o/ Remember to pop out to MH chat once in a while, the chat is full of fabulous people. Do you have an Last.fm account? Also, kissapuu is such a cute nick. :'D I'll be sure to check the chat out. Got Last.fm, though the scrobbles have been a bit lackuster recently, becaues last week I noticed something was wrong with my desktop player's scrobbler so I've only got the ones I scrobbled from my laptop, which isn't very much. Thanks about the nick! Back when I started using it, I gave it way more thought than I'd like to admit. But it's fun because it's kind of nonsensical and leaves a little bit room for imagination. And yeah, because it sounds kinda cute. Oh, and to clarify (for non-Finns), the nick translates to cat tree. Or cat wood, if you want it to make even less sense Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
