Hey guys

First and foremost, welcome to all, as it is my first post on this forum.

At the moment, I'm finishing my studies in France, and I've been working for about a year on a progressive / polymetric / ambiant & melodic project

My plan is to move to the USA (a country I fell in love with when I lived there for two years, a while back) in order to set up a band for this project.

On top of that I may also set up a recording / mixing / mastering studio, in order to get some money and to help some local bands.

On paper it is a great project, but it's also very complicated ;)
What can you tell me about the main types of metal that are popular in CA ? Is there a specific place for my kind of music ? I'm also looking for a drummer, which will be able to play complex polymetric rythms ... Any meshuggah dumb fanboys like me living in CA ? ;)

What general advices would you give me ? I'm all ears really... I want this to work, as otherwise I'll die and turn gay if I stay in France (and yeah I'm french)

I'm going to LA this summer in order to see the californian sun a bit ;)

Thanks in advance, and rock on :headbang:
