I'm Chris from CT. I'm 13. I play guitar in a Psychedelic/Stoner Rock band called Schizophrenia. I also have an Ambient/Post-Rock/Shoegaze solo project called Over Canterbury. I've been playing guitar for two or so years now. My biggest inspirations are:

Johnny Greenwood
Matt Pike
Brian Setzer
Django Reinhardt
Steve Howe
Robert Fripp
Adrian Belew
Steven Wilson
SRV
Joe Pass
Etc.
Etc.
Etc.

I love soccer, spicy food, and vinyl records (I collect them, but have a fairly modest collection). My favorite band (ATM) is Godspeed You! Black Emperor. I'm anti-war, and can be consider a hippie. That's it...I think. :hello:

hi, I'm james.
I've been lurking for a couple of months, but I just registered today.
I've been a guitarist for many years, but right now I'm more interested in noise and electronics.

as for stuff relating to this site, I have a devi ever ok and I just ordered a 33/silver crank and a destructo noctavia.

Hey I'm Perry from New Jersey. Found myself here because of my search for noise pedals and fuzz. Was waiting to make an account here after the new TBDs were released and hopefully picked one up but decided to say fuck it and join now. I've been playing bass in a punk band for about five years now but Ill try anything I can get my hands on. Guitar wise I play a Gibson SG through a 50 watt marshall combo with an ever changing pedal line up. Thanks for having me here.

Hey Perry.
Nice to see more Jersey-ans around these parts.
What band are you in, and what part of NJ are you located in? (Central, northern, southern..?)

Hello there. I am Brandon from VA.
I enjoy playing and listening to music, computers, gaming, deep thoughts and conversations, and writing lyrics and songs.
I'm a fan of progressive, post-hardcore, experimental, alternative, that sorta music. It's kinda hard for me to explain my tastes.
Been playing guitar for about 4 or so years. Inspirations are Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, Thomas Erak, Claudio Sanchez, Thurston Moore, and a few others.
Never been in a band, but I'm trying to materialize a possible post-hardcore/progressive/hell maybe even shoegaze outfit.
Yep. Thanks for having me.

Ich komme aus USA, aber ich studierte in Deutschland (Darmstadt) für ein Semester. Ich spreche Deutsches ziemlich schlecht

Sorry, I like to practice it every now and then. It has faded a lot for me.

Computer science, which means that most of my work wasn't in German anyways. My knowledge of the language came almost entirely from social situations, which is guess is the best way to learn.
