Hi everyone ! 

I'm a new french fan, i discovered SCANDAL one month ago...  why i didn't heard about this amazing band before !?

The first song i've heard was Platform Syndrome, Even if i don't understand japanese I've been blown away by their energy and their musical skills. Then I listened to their others songs : I literally fell in love with the band !

I really like Mami's guitar technic (her octave technic remind me some Smashing Pumpkins songs), i like Tomomi's crazy bass lines, Haruna is a great lead singer and Rina is really impressive at drums.

I'm playing guitar and bass, I really love music, i like bands like Smashing Pumpkins, Green Day, U2, Metallica, Guns N Roses,... and I like to play video games

Hello!

Welcome to SH! They already performed a number of times in France. If they come back there you can watch them live.

Looks like we like the same genre of bands.. Another MAMI fan  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] 

Please enjoy here

Welcome!! 

I'm a relatively new member here too but it is always exciting to see new member joining and more people getting to know and like Scandal. 
I also love MAMI chan, she's my favorite too, she's just phenomenal isn't she?!!

Anyways, hope you have fun and enjoy your experience here, keep on loving and supporting Scandal!!

Bonjour!

I love Guns N Roses. If you just discovered Scandal, congrats! Enjoy the music, it's great.

Thanks for your welcome !

Yes I'm another Mami fan, she is a great guitar player and a beautiful woman...  she's my favorite ! 
I really like how happy they are when they play together on stage, it's nice to see such a close-knit band

Hi Izzy,

Welcome to SH !

I am one of the rare English fans and I also play bass guitar and love all those bands you mentioned.

My Japanese sucks but it has not stopped me loving many Japanese groups but especially SCANDAL and I have enjoyed watching Tomomi becoming a better bass player every year, plus I love her chipmunk voice

Hope you have fun here and I have been to France many times, it it a great country.

Tomomi's Chipmunk voice, that's true !  .lol. But she is so cute when she sings !

The only other Japanese band I know is Babymetal

@izzy

If you scroll down to the 'Entertainment' section of the starting page and 'click' on 'Music' there are many other Japanese groups that many of us like

.hi. Hello!! Welcome to SH!!

Another Mami fan here, and I really like her octaves too. I became a fan some weeks before Koisuru Universe was released (I really like the octave intro in this song hehe)

Hope you have fun here!!

Welcome, izzy.

I am also a big hard rock/metal fan that's been captivated by these ladies.  Since you listed GnR and Metallica, I suggest checking out the following Japanese bands (these are ones I enjoy very much): Band-Maid, Destrose, Aldious, Mary's Blood, Lovebites, Doll$Boxx, Mutant Monster.  As for Green Day, check out SpecialThanks.  They're probably my favorite after Scandal.

Thanks for all the recommandations of Japanese bands... 2018 is gonna be my J-Rock year !

Welcome. I'm a fan of all four of them but Haru's my favorite member. Green Day is my favorite band besides Scandal. You could say before Scandal too. Hehe.. And Scandal said that they're also a big fan of Green Day and Foo Fighters.

Looks like a lot of us like this kind of music, pop-rock songs with heavy guitars... that's why we love Scandal  .upwalk.

It's melodic, rhythmic.. it has flow so it's really pleasant to the ears. Scandal & Foo Fighters are my two fave bands.

I'll recommend RIZE to you, though they are not a female band but it's J Rock so you might be interested.

I also like the Foo Fighters, one of my favorite song is "I Am A River"

Bonjour Izzy.
Ni hao and Hajimemashite

Welcome to Scandal Heaven! It's a pleasure to meet you.
I hope you will enjoy your time here.

It seems we enjoy the same types of music. All of the bands you mention I'm a fan of too. My three favourite bands are SCANDAL, The Rasmus and REO Speedwagon. By the way, what video games do you like to play?

Just to tell you, I've been to France once. Normandy to be precise because I wanted to see the beaches where my grandfather landed in World War II. I must say I do like France, it's a beautiful country and the people are...tré bien. Is that right?

Anyway, enjoy your stay here.

I play video games on PS4, I recently finished Horizon zero Dawn - Frozen Wilds DLC. I often play Overwatch and Gran Turismo Sport. I will pre order Detroit Become Human...

It's good that you enjoyed your trip to France, merci ! The beaches of Normandy are rich of a tragic history, but this is a beautiful place to visit. I live in Brittany in the northwest of France.

I have PS4 too, perhaps we can exchange ID's and have a race together sometime as I too play Gran Turismo Sport. I'm also a huge fan of the Fallout series, Elder Scrolls, GTA and The Witcher.

Actually, I'd love to go to Coté De Azure in the South. I also went to Paris and I remember looking up at the Eiffel Tower trying to talk myself into going in and climbing up. But in the end I was too scared.

helloo how are you

Welcome, Izzy. .hi. 
It's nice to meet new fans. I hope you have fun here

My PS4 ID is IZZYlive29
