THIS IS IN ALL CAPS FOR EASIER READING, ASSUMING ANYONE SCROLLS LOW ENOUGH TO SEE IT. I DO NOT TYPE LIKE THIS IN MESSAGES.
INTERESTS: HARSH MUSICK, FILM (ESPECIALLY HORROR/GIALLO), READING FICTION, CRIME (READING, NOT COMMITTING), WRITING (LYRICS, NOVELS, HARSH MUSICK), BLACK/OFFENSIVE HUMOR, LEARNING MORE ABOUT ANYTHING OR ANYONE OF INTEREST.
ABOUT ME:
I PERFORM BASS & VOCALS IN 2 BANDS YOU HAVE PROBABLY NEVER HEARD . . . 2 BANDS YOU WOULD DESPISE IF YOU DID. WE PLAY HARSH, FAST MUSIC. THE PROBLEM WITH JUST SAYING WE ARE METAL IS THAT TOO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT WHAT IS POPULAR IS A GOOD REPRESENTATION OF THE GENRE RATHER THAN A BASTARDIZATION (OR AT LEAST IT IS IN THESE PATHETIC TIMES). THE TECHNICAL NAMES FOR WHAT I LIKE INCLUDE BLACK METAL, DEATH METAL, THRASH, GRINDCORE, AND HARDCORE, ALONG WITH MORE TRADITIONAL METAL AND PUNK.
MY PLAYLIST OFFERS A GOOD CROSS-SECTION OF WHAT I LIKE. THESE ARE SOME OF MY FAVORITE ALBUMS:
CONQUEROR -- WAR CULT SUPREMACY REVENGE - EVERYTHING THEY'VE RELEASED ANTAEUS - DE PRINCIPII EVANGELIKUM DARKTHRONE - TRANSILVANIAN HUNGER REPULSION - HORRIFIED CELTIC FROST - MORBID TALES & TO MEGA THERION TERRORIZER - WORLD DOWNFALL RUPTURE - SEX, DRUGS, AND RUPTURE & CORRUPTURE BEHERIT - DRAWING DOWN THE MOON MARDUK - PLAGUE ANGEL 1349 -- LIBERATION
IN ADDITION TO THE AFOREMENTIONED AND THE PLAYLIST BANDS, SOME OTHERS I LIKE ARE DARK ANGEL, DESTRUCTION, AURA NOIR, CARCASS, NAPALM DEATH, UNSEEN TERROR, DECEMBER WOLVES, AXIS OF ADVANCE, ENSLAVED, XASTHUR, CARPATHIAN FOREST/NATTEFROST, VED BUENS ENDE, SATYRICON, TRELLDOM, SINISTER, MORTICIAN, MY DYING BRIDE, KRISIUN, IMMORTAL, ETC.
I'VE BEEN WRITING STORIES SINCE I WAS ABOUT 10 YEARS OLD. I READ A LOT OF HORROR, BUT I'M INTO ABOUT ANY GENRE. SOME OF MY FAVORITE NOVELS:
CLIVE BARKER -- THE GREAT AND SECRET SHOW STEPHEN KING -- THE SHINING PETER STRAUB -- SHADOWLAND PAT CONROY -- THE LORDS OF DISCIPLINE JOHN FOWLES -- THE MAGUS CHUCK PALAHNIUK -- FIGHT CLUB JACK KETCHUM -- THE GIRL NEXT DOOR JACK KETCHUM -- HIDE AND SEEK BRET EASTON ELLIS -- AMERICAN PSYCHO BRET EASTON ELLIS -- GLAMORAMA VLADIMIR NABOKOV -- LOLITA J.G. BALLARD -- CRASH JAMES ELLROY -- WHITE JAZZ JAMES ELLROY -- L.A. CONFIDENTIAL JAMES ELLROY -- THE BIG NOWHERE JAMES ELLROY -- THE BLACK DAHLIA JAMES ELLROY -- AMERICAN TABLOID JAMES ELLROY -- THE COLD SIX THOUSAND (NEEDLESS TO SAY, I CANNOT WAIT FOR BLOOD'S A ROVER THIS YEAR)
