No matter what I'm
doing, most of the time, I'm listening to music while I'm doing it. I
play guitar, and I'm decent at it. I have an Ibanez RG. I am not in band
currently, but I'm sure that will change soon. My speciality is rhythm
guitar. Musically, I'm a through and through metalhead, which is a
rarity these days. Needless to say, I've drawn "battle lines"
when it comes to music, and yes, this is a fancy way of saying I'm
closed minded when it comes to other genres of music. As you can most
clearly tell, I fucking hate rap. I abhor MTV, with a deep and raging
passion. I despise and scoff at what MTV is trying to pass off as
"metal" these days. Well-concocted shit (in my opinion) such
as Linkin Park (yes, they're my punching bag) is as far from
"metal" as it gets. These bands usually do not have original
guitarists, infact the guitarists grope at the guitars and hop around
with their dreadlocks and adidas sweat suits like faggots tied to the
steak. (Korn) However, below the unoriginal sludge of mainstream music,
we have excellent new bands like Children of Bodom and Nevermore. Also,
though we've seen many good bands burn out (Metallica), there are still
many of the classics that still give the full metal assault as they did
twenty years ago. (Iron Maiden) \m/ Bands/Musicians I like are:
(in no real order)
METAL:
IRON fucking MAIDEN, Iced Earth, Nevermore, Slayer, Children of Bodom, Megadeth, Testament,
The Haunted, Mercyful Fate, Death, Black Label Society, (the good)

don't immediately come to mind...which is many.) OTHER:
I'll be sitting here for a while naming all these bands, so yeah,
just....ask me. MUSIC
I DON'T LIKE:
Blink 182, Linkin Park, Adema, Mushroom Head, Mudvayne, Propaghandi,
new Metallica, Nirvana, Gorillaz, Korn, Limp Bizkit, Sum41, Bob Marley,
Static-X, Staind, all those whiny female fronted quirk-rock bands,
faq-esqe techno music, Rob Zombie, most punk rock...that includes the
"real" punk bands, any and all corporate music, bands I hear
to much--regardless of how good they are, easy listening music makes me
want to vomit, all the jazz bullshit, all that whiny ska crap, obviously
anything hip-hop or rap oriented--I will harm you, pseudo-fag goth rock,
"soul", any sort of dance music, 80s glam-metal (NO! IRON
MAIDEN IS NO GLAM BAND!), Spanish music, stupid MTV music
trying to be passed off as heavy metal, EMO. Below
are a few musical rants. My opinions on why "rap music" and
"boybands" are, in a plain fashion, cockspankers.
Rap and gay are both
three letter words, coincidence? Maybe.
Why rap sucks Why
boybands suck Bands
