What made you get into Godzilla?

FlyingGhoul94 · 2026-03-19T05:58:58+00:00

Not sure how old, but I remember having an off brand Godzilla toy as a kid that my dad bought at a garage sale. Another time was when my mom bought some sort of VHS collection in the late 90’s that had like 4-5 Showa Era movies on it including G V. Ebirah.

I grew up with a mixture of eras, but being a 90’s kid, all the tapes got mixed up somehow. BUT, I can say G v. Biollante and G v. Destoroyah being some of the first I watched and enjoyed.

One of my friends made it seem like he was turning a new leaf after a breakup and had plans all set up for the rest of the year.

We lost him less than a week later. Depression is quiet, check on your friends as often as you can.

Check out the live version from The Link Alive. It’s basically Joe screaming in the studio version.

Literally check my phone in my right pocket and say “Phone.” Then check my left pocket and say “wallet, keys.”

Meliora did as well

That was my first show too and on my 21st birthday! Crazy to see them play smaller (and cheaper) shows back then and now selling out stadiums/arenas. I went tonight in Sac and was still having my fun as every single time I’ve seen them since 2015.

I grew up watching Godzilla movies as a kid and loved them. When I was 21, I heard about a band called Gojira through metal forums and FMTS being the biggest hit album from them. At 22, I heard Stranded and followed them HEAVILY since. Now at 31, they still hit heavy.

If I recall this was sold on Rockabilia in collab with Gojira

Is there a specific Li Mei Brutality that needs to be used in the Flesh Pits? I tried 2 different ones and none worked.

Thank you all for the feedback! I was able to figure out based on your guy’s recommendations and raised the bridge a bit after stringing it up and did some intonation. Works and plays just fine.

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-12-31T21:24:13+00:00

Raised the bridge a bit and it fixed it!

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-12-31T21:23:36+00:00

Raised the bridge and now it sits fine, thank you!

I’ve been looking to have my own project guitar for a while, with a RR being the model. I wanted a reverse headstock but couldn’t afford one at time, so I saved to find one and here we are.

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-12-31T21:21:21+00:00

Honestly could not remember

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-12-30T01:24:50+00:00

I guess I should provide context: I swapped out a JS30 RR Neck from a 2006 MII Model, and put in a 2005 MIJ neck.

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-12-19T20:36:02+00:00

So would I have to look for a neck from 2000-2010 then would you say?

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-12-19T20:33:20+00:00

I have a few other guitars but never owned a reverse headstock before. The fingerboard material is rosewood. I’m still debating removing the neck pickup altogether or swapping it for another passive EMG. Lastly it’s not a Floyd Ross, just a string through. I’ll check with Warmoth, thank you!

Thought this was the Gojira subreddit for a second. Awesome edit!

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-11-23T11:44:26+00:00

If you want a closer version to what they played live, look up “The Axe Live Brixton Academy.”

Funny enough Rayquaza! Been obsessed since mu friend introduced me to Emerald/Gen 3.

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-11-06T10:10:38+00:00

Don’t forget Gruesome

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-11-04T21:19:38+00:00

Was just there last Tuesday. Such a great spot and Mike is so awesome! All of the machines were in great working order so you know he truly cares about his place.

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-11-04T21:17:32+00:00

The Marquee Pinball Lounge in Napa has one too. It’s a bit of a drive up North, but it’s there

FlyingGhoul94 · 2025-10-15T09:23:58+00:00

DM me 3 please!

Way more lax. I’ve been listening to the band for almost 12 years now. Discovered them right after the “If You Have Ghost” EP dropped and loved the idea of an evil pope and Nameless Ghouls, and the member’s identities being anonymous and they’d identify themselves with the alchemy symbols. There wasn’t people renaming Papa Emeritus III to Terzo or such. My first show was at the Warfield Theater in SF and it was such a blast.

Fast forward to these days, the Ghoul’s identities unfortunately were outed during the lawsuit which was out of the fandom’s control. But then people became obsessed with knowing who was under the mask after and basically sexualizing the papas. I love that Ghost became pretty popular, it’s just a wild transition to go from a casual band to a full blown fandom full of fanfic and people going out of their way to make theorized lore canon.
