All fine Music, mainly Death and Black Metal, but I like to think I have no boundaries, as long as the music touches my being, from jazz to some pop, traditional, world music, fine arts, cinema, literature...And my band: In Tha Umbra
Myself...
Here are a few projects that have, do and will always rock my world: Morbid Angel, Dissection, Absu, Ulver, Vader, Muse, Deathspell Omega, Funeral Mist, Opeth, Spiritual Beggars, Entombed, Sigh, Satyricon, Fausto Bordalo Dias, Pungent Stench, Possessed, Pink Floyd, Iron Maiden, Deep Purple, Jose Cid, Motorhead, Nile, Naglfar, Keep Of Kalessin, Mercyful Fate, In The Woods, Emperor, Enslaved, Devil Doll, Dark Tranquillity, Danny Elfman, Celtic Frost, Coldplay, Cynic, At The Gates, Borknagar, Ornatos Violeta, A Naifa, Dazkarieh, Rodrigo Leão and zillions more...
"Nosferatu" Murnau, "Fight Club", "The Pillow Book" Peter Greenaway, "Life Of Brian", "Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain", "Star Wars", Kusturica's "White Cat, Black Cat", "Pulp Fiction", short low budget movies, and lots more...I must say that contrary to most of the people I know, I did not like the Saw I and II, as I found both movies to be much too predictable...let's see about "Saw III" sometime in the next few days...
Stargate SG1, Stargate Atlantis, Bones, Lost, Dr. House, Sic NotÃcias, some documentaries, but I guess I'm watching less and less television as time goes by...
Tolkien's "Lord Of The Rings", Friedrich W. Nietzsche's work, "Tratatto di semiotica" Umberto Eco, "The Mists Of Avalon", "Paradise Lost" John Milton, "No Lado Escuro da Alma" Mário de Sá Carneiro, "Épico de Gilgamesh" Shin-eqi-unnini, "Les Fleurs du Mal" Charles Baudelaire, "Das Parfum" Patrick Suskind [ after watching the movie, I must admit ], "O Erro de Descartes" "O Sentimento de Si" António Damásio, Douglas Adams...and some stuff I get to put my eyes into from time to time...
I'm not a person that idolatrizes whoever may be, but I have to confess that I recognize the genious in some few human beings for the change they made in my life, which grants them my admiration and a place in a higher plane than the rest of us, mere mortals...
