There was a time when everything collapsed in my life at once. Lost all and returned to my country with just one bag and damn papers to file. Didn't go out, didn't talk to anybody for two years. All my friends thought I was dead.
Then one day by mere accident, I met an Italian metal band SIGMA . Little things like those sometimes change someone's life...I somehow became involved with them supporting and promoting their music in Japan.
While I was doing that I found myself "alive" again. I’ve met people who bought SIGMA’s albums and exchanged information and met many nice metal fans on the net and learned a lot about heavy metal. I also had a reunion with my long lost Italian friends. Moreover, it gave me a good feeling that there's still someone who needs me and I could do something for others. Thanks, SIGMA for bringing me back to life again :-))
Now heavy metal and Italy have become a very important part in my life. This summer (07) I also met an italian band Raising Fear and saw their play which I also found their strong & sturdy sound and performance highly potential and would like Japanese metal fans to know.
So the bottom line is, I love anything about heavy metal and Italy! I love to visit Italy as often as possible and would like to keep discovering good bands. Hope I can come across with people with the same interests.
To all the musicians,
Thank you for bringing good music to us. We all appreciate your hard work. Even though one has a passion for music and wants to pursue his career, sometimes it's difficult and most of us have to give up on the way... Music helps people to live on. You are gifted and talented. Please keep on doing no matter what comes in your way.
Thank you for choosing the hardest career, we all support you from behind!!!
