Hi, I'm Ian, and this is MySpace. This is supposed to act as some sort of digital representation of myself, but I think that if you can sum yourself up in one page, that's a little sad. I'm a pretty verbose person but I don't have a lot to say, so unless you're into hearing me drone on about existentialism, obscure hardcore bands from the 80s, or some political bullshit, steer clear.
I have a son that my entire world revolves around and I still shave my head and listen to punk rock. That's important because I was always told by the "officials" that I'd grow out of it as soon as I graduated highschool. I hate racists, ego-maniacs, corporate assholes, and other miscreants ruining American culture.
I have a hard time explaining myself in just a couple of sentences, so I tend to talk too much. I read too much, I think too much. I've given up on television and people in general. People call me a snob sometimes, but I don't think that's so. I think that there is literally no such thing as taste, there is merely opinion, and opinions can be wrong. That way it can be said that the music I listen to is good and the music you listen to is bad, you just don't know it. If knowing what is good makes me a snob then I guess that is my cross to bear.
I ran Victimized Productions out of Birmingham, Alabama for a few years; I booked shows for a lot of punk, hardcore, and psychobilly bands and put out a few CDs for locals. I was a part of the following bands:
Seven Come Eleven (2002, guitar)
Korova (2002-present, vox and occasional other things)
Burned Over Time (2003, bass)
Sick of Talk (2004, guitar)
Slag (2005-2006, vox/guitar)
