About me
My real name is Romain, i'm from Angers in France and I was born in 1994. I always listened to rock music as far as I remember as my dad made me discover bands like Queen, Radiohead, Indochine, Noir Désir, and of course Muse. The first time I listened to them was in 2001 with Bliss, I remember loving the video. I was more a fan of Indochine at the time, hence my nickname, even though I barely listen to them nowadays but I slowly grew interest into a more progressive rock music, and bands like Archive, Pink Floyd, and Muse, which I became an absolute fan with Absolution and later Black Holes & Revelations. I finally saw them (with Archive as Special Guests) in 2007 for the first time (my first stadium concert and the third concert of my life) and I knew I'll stick for a long time...
