Introduce yourself here

WELL, HI....MY NAME ITS EDUARDO OR TRANSLATED TO ENGLISH "EDWARD", IM FROM MEXICO IM 19 YEAR OLD AND I KNOW KATATONIA SINCE THE DISCOURAGED ONES ALBUM, WHEN I WAS QUITE A FAN OF MOONSPELL HEHE...

IVE BEEN HERE SINCE THE RELEASE OF THE "MY TWIN" DEMO...LESS THAN TWO MONTHS AND WELL....HI EVERYONE AGAIN.
 
Hello. I came originally for Novembre forum here and started coming regularly onto this board half year ago... I live in Lapland, Finland beyond the back of God. I haven't seen the sun since last November so it's pretty depressing though last few weeks have shown better signs. Ghost of the sun truly. And in the middle of summer it's so bright around the day that I can't get sleep. no wonder every finn is a looney and should be locked up.
Okay well. I'm in highschool and after that I'll be heading army because that's the only option if you don't want to go to jail or go to help some old grannies in civil service.
Uhmm. I play in couple of bands at times and I had a grindcore band sometime ago. We did stuff onto fourtrack-recorder but it sounded so shitty we didn't want to put it in the Internet.
I am eighteen.
I have a beard.
Even though my signature says " I am the brown undies", I am not. Besides the underwear I'm currently wearing are green.
 
Hello! My name is Martin, i'm 28 years old and I live in Berlin.
...been listening to Katatonia since 1999, when Tonight's decision came out.
I love live gigs, yesterday I saw Pungent Stench & Eisregen. Fuckin' great :loco:
Hopefully Katatonia will come to Berlin soon.

'Allo, My name is Ryan, I'm 19, and I live in Houston Texas [GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!]
I found Katatonia through Opeth, and I'm damn glad I did.. My first Kata album was Viva Emptiness, but I've taken a liking to their old era... I'm in college, and trying to get a demo together without a drummer.

My real name is Haris. I am getting 27 in a couple of days. I live in the Bavarian capital Munich - a town I really enjoy living in! Well, I study Nordic languages and work part-times at the university to earn some bucks...
I love listening to music - music that hits my heart, no matter which genre it is. But among all the stuff I listen to, the early 90's Death Metal from Stockholm is the best music I'ver ever heard in my life, such as Entombed's first three records, Dismember's debut, Unleashed's debut and so on.
I love sports... but mainly passively ;)
Though I try to go jogging regularly and though I used to play soccer and tennis a lot, I prefer watching sports... My favourites are Formula 1, the "Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters", Nordic and Alpine skiing stuff, soccer and so on...
Besides listening to music, I love composing songs myself... I played in a couple of bands with a bunch of different styles: Gothic Rock, Death Metal, Alternative/Indie Rock, Electro/Ambient stuff, Singer/Songwriter... yeah, that's about a short description of me! Cheerz!
 
I'm Mariana, 23 years old. I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina and I'm starting Psychology this year. I'm now working as a receptionist at a mental health clinic. I'm an only child, no bros or sis. I live with my mother (my parents are divorced since I was 13) and my two cats: Luna Bastet and Cleopatra. I love all that's related to cats and felines in general. I love pumas and panteras, snakes and have a kind of phobia for spiders and bugs annoy the hell out of me. I also like some breeds of dogs like Dobermanns, Rottweillers, etc. and love horses as well. And I love everything related to Ancient Eygpt.
I've been listening to Katatonia since 2001 I think, when a friend of mine introduced me to them. First Kata song I heard was Right Into The Bliss but then I fell in love with Dance of December Souls, specially with Velvet Thorns but I love all Kata albums. I feel identified with almost every lyric. I like many bands but Katatonia has always been my favourite one and will always be. I joined UM on 2003 and it was because of Katatonia and then started visiting other forums that I then quit visiting. I don't participate very often but I do read it everyday.
I'm a nice person when I like someone but I can be as naughty as shit when I don't like someone or something. I don't get mad easily as long as you don't bother me but I had a hard temper. On the other hand, I think I am a good friend. I like to help people, specially the ones I love and care about. I'm always there if they need me and if they don't too. I sometimes get a bit depressed but that's just a part of me that I'm used to.
Well I think that's all. I don't know anything else to say.
Hi to all :)

PS: I don't have a band nor play any instrument. I can play the piano but not as perfect as I would like, I learnt by my own when I was about 10 years old. I always loved guitars but never was able to learn... maybe it's not for me, heh. When I'm alone at home I use to sing a lot. It's a good therapy, it helps me.
 
eh hi.
i'm annie, 20 years old and i live in sao paulo, brazil.
katatonia and chroma key are my favorite bands everrrrr..
i dont post much here because i dont have much to say, i guess
but well, here i am. ;)
 
Hi guys, my name is Sebastian Cobas, I'm 28 years old. I live in Montevideo, Uruguay. After my regular job, I try to be a bass player. I play in a band called Portal 7. Currently we are recording our first album.
You can check the band in our website: www.portal7.net
I discovered Katatonia just two years ago, but now I can say that is one of my favourites bands.
I listened some tracks of the new album and I can say that is very good.
I think this could be my favourite.
 
Valdemar the great was a Danish Kingo_O

My name is Carsten. I am 23 years old and I am from Denmark. I'm currently attending the univeristy of Copenhagen were I'm studying archeology.
I became a fan of Katatonia through Opeth some 3½ years ago. I became a member to this board 2 years ago. And I have been posting ever since. Katatonia is like my second favorite band, I've seen them once live and I'm hoping to see them again when they are going to promote their new album, which i am also looking forward to.:D
 
I'm 18 years old, I first listened to Katatonia about 2 years ago when my friend gave a CD with their songs.. Since then I've bought some albums and now I'm really looking forward to the new material. On this forum, I am very new member, been here only couple of weeks and posted almost nothing. I've never seen Katatonia live, so I'm hoping I'll get chance to that.
I live in a little town in Central Finland, soon going to move away to study (hopefully at University somewhere, hopefully literature, hopefully with my boyfriend, even though he understands nothing about GOOD music :p).
 
Hey there :wave:
My name is Bobby (or Bobs, Bobbins, whatever you like). I'm a big Katatonia fan, and have been for around 2 years. Also, I'm into into pretty much every style you could think of (Eurobeat excepted). Music helps to keep me alive. It is my lifeblood.
I'm 17, and I live in rainy Scotland. If it had better weather, it would be just about the most beautiful country in the world. I'm still at school, but I'm going to university at Edinburgh in September to study law. I can't wait :)
I try to play music, but I'm not very talented. I play keys, and attempt to do vocals, but I'm very average at both. I was in a metal band for a while, but we disbanded, and now I try to do solo stuff. I would be surprised if anybody on here liked it, it kinda turns out like all that repugnant poppy stuff nobody likes :lol:. But what can I say? I gotta do something musical, otherwise I would go insane. I have a myspace in my sig if anyone wants to check it out.
Occasionally I try to write poetry and prose. I'm quite good once I have an idea in my head, but it's the generation of these ideas that causes me the most problems.
I try to be as positive about everything as I possibly can be. I often find myself becoming something of a pillar of support for other people. I don't mind, because I like to help, and it distracts me from my own problems.
I'm just about the most open-minded person in existance. I'm well-disposed towards everybody, becuase without the company of other people, I would wither and die. :)
I post on forums waaaaaaay too often, as opposed to doing assignments :lol:
I'd bet money that everyone else here is nice too :D
 
hey all, i'm john. i'm 19 living in Ojai, california.
im an art student/artist about to start school up in Portland, OR.
i got into katatonia thru opeth and bought all theyre old albums first
then eased to theyre later albums.....truly an awesome band. A lot of theyre
music has always made a creative spark when painting and drawing.
ALL I HOPE IS THAT THEY COME TO PLAY IN L.A. (or somewhere near)
