Although my knowledge in metal & rock is mostly revolved around traditional heavy metal, glam and punk rock, my interests & knowledge do not end there. I also listen to a fair amount of stoner, thrash, folk and black metal (the more melodic & thrash influenced black for the most part). In relativity to many other staff members my knowledge in these 4 sub-genres is fairly limited, mind you.

I generally like all extreme music that evokes a strong emotion or mental picture. I mostly find this sort of music in the genres mentioned above, but I do not limit myself to those genres. I'm always interested in discovering new bands, so if you have something that I would/could/should like, don't hesitate to shoot me a message.

Death metal, a bit of Progressive metal.
Jazz fusion, Classical music.
Folklore music for different countries interests me aswell.
Other stuff ranging from instrumental RJD2 tracks to The Prodigy, passing by Tears for Fears.
Into books and movies aswell, no particular style.
Curious about languages and making a link between them. Interested in the differences between cultures and how people from different countries see each other.
