zombieparadise 487 Posted February 17, 2016 Hi Everyone,I'm Steve, a graphic designer from Canada who's been into Visual Kei for about 10 years. I'm new to the forums, but I've been creeping everything for a little over 2 years (I'm shy, or stupid or something). I'm finally working from home, so I figured I'd have more time to waste on the internet, and thus, get active on MH!My top 3 bands that I couldn't live without:1. heidi. 2. Plastic Tree 3. lynch. I like to consider the 2004-2009ish era my personal 'golden age' for VK, so most of my favorite bands are from that era and are as follows. Those are my top three in order, but the rest are a toss up! PIERROT cali≠gari 12012DEATHGAZE D'espairsRay deadman 9GOATS BLACK OUT DELUHI MERRY girugämesh 蜉蝣 (Kagerou) The GazettE -OZ- Sadie NoGoD ケミカルピクチャーズ 人格ラヂオ 陰陽座 (Onmyo-za) As far as 'newer' bands go (I'm getting old), these guys are alright by me: AvelCain Develop One's Faculties DEZERT DIV HOLLOWGRAM KEEL My BACTERIA HEAT IsLAND Umbrella 黒百合と影 (Kuroyuri to Kage)- - - I like regular J-Rock too (AKFG, FACT, etc.) and as far as English music goes, I mostly like 90's era shoegazing goodness (Ride, Chapterhouse, mbv, etc.) and a little Ringo Deathstarr/Fleeting Joys. Japanese Rock has been a part of my life for a really long time, and I owe it to sites like this for keeping the love alive! I'm glad to be a part of it nao. Sorry for the band-spam! I like lists and paragraphs. See you in the forums 5 CAT5, Ada Suilen, Delkmiroph and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Delkmiroph 1649 Posted February 18, 2016 You're all so nice! Thanks for taking me on. I'm really looking forward to being a part of the community. It's probably ammonite, then Nega to Poji, echo and Ink. They just get better with age : ) Hakusei's growing on me too. The best is Nega to Poji, Puppet show, hide and seek. (Yeah i like the oldest album them XD) Now, with new age to them i like Ink, ammonite and Hakusei. If you have time to read my review about Hakusei , would be great to know your impressions about the new album. https://www.monochrome-heaven.com/index.php/topic/39357-review-plastic-tree-hakusei/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robkun 4184 Posted February 19, 2016 In terms of Plastic Tree, "Parade" will always be the album that I obsess the most over, and one of my all time favs! Anywho, welcome aboard! I live in upstate NY myself, so that's a few hours away from Ontario! XD. And I didn't start getting into VK till about 2010/2011, so I guess I just missed the boat in terms of a pretty much unanimous VK golden era! loll. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
