As a good myspace friend of mine said,"It's time to graduate from the third person profile".
So,here I am,I,Holopain,exposing myself and my music to the world.
I've being around for more than 18 years,singing,playing bass guitar,beating drums and draining every Mhz of my proccessor's computing power.
I've played a lot of music,with a lot ot of bands,under many circumstances- some of them pretty weird!
18 years of experience left me (as a member of other bands), with two albums released from indepented labels and none of my illussions intact.
I'll never be a rock star!!!
So,what am I doing here?
I'm making music,I like the music I'm making and some people think my music is good,so here it is,listen to it and judge for yourselves!
Having seen a lot of bands declaring that their music is a way to spread their ideology,to stand for love,pride and stuff like that,I'll only say that I'm making music because I like making music and I would make music,under any circumstances,just because I want it!
If you are curious about my ideology,my views in life,my feelings and such,read my blogs or message me or both.
Just don't fall for ready made ideologies-read books,listen to music and talk to people,draw your own conclusions about life and form your own ideologies...
Thanks for dropping by.
Have a nice day:)
