I grew up listening to things like Satyricon, Hypocrisy, and Behemoth, which I still do to this day. The new Portal album is phenomenal, and I’m waiting on pins and needles for new Leviathan material.

My favorite ‘band’ is Frank Zappa.

If I feel like country, it’s usually the Hank Williams boys (1,2, and 3), maybe some David Allen Cole.

People who know me understand I have love for the Cure.

You’ll probably catch me driving around town singing Lana del Ray or something with the gf.

I also love watching Anthony Fantano for his reviews, even if I don’t agree with them, because he has interesting points of view that I may not have considered.

My most listened to album last year? RTJ3.

If you just saw me on the street, I look like your typical beefy, long hair, bearded metal dude.

Life is too short to be an elitist, people should try going outside their echo chamber, live a little, and try new things.
