is currently roaming the Desert of the American Southwest, beer in one hand, claw hammer in the other, most likely listening to doom or sludge.
Outside of metal, the suspect listens to some 80's and 90's punk, 80's wave, some ambient electronica and blues.
Has been known to review albums or gigs for tix, cd's, food, booze, "happy ending" massages, and, on occasion, "ABC" gum.
should be considered drunk and extremely disorderly.

My interests are mostly music, books and films/television. I do some gaming if it's GTA or the likes. Discovered recently that I also like to write articles about the music I love and the different perspectives you can look at music.
For me music was always a transcendent thing. I value the work of bands a lot and cherish the moments I enjoy while I'm listening to their music.
I'm also very cheesy and philosophical as you can see ahah

I appear very self-opinionated, but i'm actually very friendly and like to talk with clever people. Dumb amoebas piss me off. Bright peeps stimulate my brain cells and make me overly talkative. Which I am anyway.
I usually go against the flow and question authorities, classics, and generally everything that people consider as a given.

Best band I've ever seen live: Turisas. It was part of Paganfest I, the North American tour. All bands contributed to it being the most amazing night, but I'd trade any of them, even the incredible Eluveitie, for another set of Turisas. To Holmgard and beyond, baby!
