Recently listened to:
Metal music (primarily of the doom, gothic, and melodic death varieties... sorry Trivium fans), computer games, home recording, fantasy fiction, software development, guitars, artificial intelligence, linguistics, story writing, history, and various combinations of the above.
People with similar interests, local or remote.
However, I'm VERY UNLIKELY to add you if you don't send me a message beforehand, or if you're a band I'm unlikely to like (check the side panel for examples!). I have better things to do than just collect anonymous photos for my friends page. Introduce yourself and say why you want to add me. Otherwise, don't waste your time sending a friend request. It will just get denied if I don't know you from elsewhere.
Dark Tranquillity, Swallow The Sun, Paradise Lost, Daylight Dies, My Dying Bride, Primordial, Katatonia, Sirenia, Bruce Dickinson, In Flames, Graveworm, At The Gates, Battlelore, Dragonforce, Iron Maiden, Darkseed, Mourning Beloveth, Forest Stream, Draconian, Tristania, Amon Amarth, Type O Negative, Lacuna Coil, Morgion, Charon, Sentenced, and various other metal bands. Also, the occasional soundtrack from films or computer games.
You'll find a more empirically accurate answer over on my Last.fm page.
Lord of the Rings trilogy, Gladiator, Bladerunner, Conan the Barbarian, eXistenZ, Pi, The Matrix, De Noorderlingen, 2001: A Space Odyssey, the Terminator trilogy. Ideally it'll feature swords, robots, or robots with swords.
I watch about an hour of television every month. If it seems like I'm out of touch with modern culture, this is why.
Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings", George R. R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire", Tad Williams's "Otherland" and "Memory Sorrow and Thorn", Weis & Hickman's "The Death Gate Cycle", Terry Brooks's "Shannara", and other assorted fantasy fiction. I also read a lot of non-fiction, especially books on computing, language, psychology (popular and academic), sociology, and history, but really anything except arts and 'literature'.
Ordinary men, doing extraordinary things...
