Hey! I live in a frozen tundra somewhere in America and write stuff.
I have been interested in music ever since I can remember - particularly darker genres such as grunge, metal, metalcore, thrash, and industrial. But I also enjoy punk, pop, bluegrass, rap, and r&b. In the interest of full disclosure, I even went through a Backstreet Boys phase, which luckily didn't last long.
I love reviewing music and discovering new artists. I'm also kind of weird in the fact that as far as albums go, I prefer to buy the CD rather than download the mp3 album. Don't tell me you don't like to read the liner notes, too.
Some of my favorite artists include: Cancer Bats, Three Days Grace, 10 Years, blink-182, Ace of Base, deadmau5, The Cure, Apocalyptica, Jack Off Jill, The Distillers, Slipknot, Breaking Benjamin, Alice in Chains, Muse, Evans Blue, Evanescence, Stone Sour, Avenged Sevenfold, Eminem, Disturbed, Korn, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Clash, Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, Green Day, Def Leppard, Michael Buble, Metallica, Dixie Chicks, Thousand Foot Krutch, Sick Puppies, Th' Legendary Shack Shakers, Stabbing Westward, A Perfect Circle, Judas Priest, Machines of Loving Grace, Tool, Alkaline Trio, Nine Inch Nails, Tech N9ne, 50 Cent, Bullet For My Valentine, Black Veil Brides, We Came As Romans, Memphis May Fire, Killswitch Engage, Asking Alexandria, Mudvayne, Angels and Airwaves, Missy Elliott, Valentina Lisitsa, Debussy, Chopin, Atreyu, Silverchair, Lana Del Rey, The Beatles, Night Ranger, Foreigner, Straight Line Stitch, Soundgarden, Nirvana, In This Moment, Saliva, The Civil Wars, Adele, The Band Perry, All That Remains, and many, many more.
