About Me

I am a writer for Raginpit Magazine , so I'd like to meet Metal and Hardcore bands from the West Coast, including California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, and Arizona. Raginpit is a webzine devoted to featuring unsigned local west coast bands and signed national bands, providing show reviews, cd reviews, interviews and feature articles. Right now, I handle covering the Shred Report , so send me news of what is happening in your band. Either send me a message here on myspace, or drop me an email to [email protected] . If you want free publicity, give us a shout!

My Interests

I have many interests, but the one that overshadows all others is music. I love many types of music and I refuse to put myself in a box and stamp a label on it when it comes to musical taste. Evolution as humans requires more and more new experiences, and since music is such a large part of my life, I like to expand my musical experience, thus evolving as a human being.

I'd like to meet:
