GODDESS OF EMPTINESS
I am Karina. I am part owner/managing director of Ragebreed and vocalist of Mindlapse. By day I work as a medical accounts assistant and by night I become the rebellious rock chick :P
I have had extremes of highs and lows in my life but it's all good I accept life is about balance. I am a mostly happy person even though everything ends in "doom" and "the claw" with me. I think too much. I am deep. I make people laugh when I am drunk. I say "dude" a lot. I am a flirt but I will always stay true to the person I am with.
RAGEBREED
Ragebreed is a metal promotions company designed to assist the development of good quality underground metal bands signed or unsigned. We are reponsible for metal events such as Aggression Download in Leicester and the Under The Earth Tours. I run a street team called the Ragebreeders, who are dedicated to promotion and assisting the metal scene as far as it can go. They are true friends and a valuable part of the company.
MINDLAPSE
Mindlapse is the metal band Gaz and I started in 1996. Although our sound and line-ups have changed over the years, the feedback we have received from gigs and tours, makes us continue and love what we do. We are signed to Holier Than Thou Records and have an EP called "Souls For Sinners" available for download release through ITunes and the usual downloadable sites. We have been lucky enough to tour the UK with great bands such as Insomnium and Cancer and perform slots with Napalm Death, Skindred, Kill II This at high standard venues such as Camden Palace now called the Koko.

What metal band are you?
Opeth
You are Opeth! You are very poetic with your lyrics, and your music flows like a waterfall. Your emotions change from angry to sad very quickly. Some people don't like you because you can sound too depressing. You're one of the best metal bands in the world, and you worship your fans!

MUSIC
Music is my life and soul. Although I am open minded, I care a lot about the metal scene and it’s direction. I spend most of my life booking gigs, running tours/events, watching unsigned and signed metal bands, promoting, jamming and listening to music. I feel by doing this I am living authentically rather than having a life dictated to me.
Music influences your moods so I feel it is important to keep a varied taste in what I listen to. Metal is my first love, always has and always will be. I do however keep an open-minded approach. If I like it I listen to it. I don’t fit into a category and I like it that way. Music is like a diary for me.
Over the years I have listened to punk, grunge, doom, metal, hardcore, thrash, glam, death, progressive, black metal, classic rock, etc. Every type of music in this genre has been a piece of my past and has developed me as a person to appreciate every genre within rock and metal music. I therefore dance to varied music in a club.
If I am honest, death metal, progressive, melodic, and doom/atmospheric bands are where my true interests lie. I feel the music challenges your mind and the technicality and third dimension always gives me more to aspire to.
THE ARTS
I am also a big fan of the arts. I love poetry, abstract art, writing, and graphic design. I like to learn new skills, remain focussed and self motivated towards my goals. I recently got published as a poet which I am quite excited about.
Your Passion is Red!
You've got that spark - a good dose of intensity, power, and determination.
You do whatever you want in life ... to hell with what anyone thinks!
With so many interests and loves, you're always running around doing something new.
You have fire in your eyes, and it shows. Bet you're even wearing something red! What Color is Your Passion?
You Are A Hazelnut Tree
You're a charmer with a killer sense of humor.
You are very demanding, but you can also be very understanding.
No matter what, you always make a lasting impression - you're quite popular.
Passionate, you are an active fighter for social causes and politics.
In general, you are moody, honest, a perfectionist, and very sexual. What's Your Celtic Horoscope?
LIFE PHILOSOPHY
I am not religious but I believe in a life philosophy called Existantialism which means you are responsible to create your meaning and purpose. I believe self doubt limits you and although this can be taken as arrogance, I see it as reaching your potential.
I like people to treat me with respect. I treat people how I want them to treat me. I love partying with my friends. I love spending time with my hubster Gaz who loves wining and dining me. I am grateful for the things in my life good and bad as I wouldn't be the person I am now. I am a strong person and rise above a lot of things however...... don't piss me off..... I'm not that nice.
You Are a Bright Star Soul
Like a shining star, you have no trouble being the center of attention
In fact, you often feel a bit hurt when all eyes aren't on you
You need to be number one in everything, no matter how trivial
And it's this ego that both hurts your confidence and helps you achieve
You're dramatic and a powerhouse of pure energy
You possess a divine quality or uniqueness that's hard to define
A natural performer, it's likely you'll become famous in some circles.
Just learn not to take everyone's reaction to you so personally!
Souls you are most compatible with: Newborn Soul and Prophet Soul What Kind of Soul Are You?
MY FRIENDS:
My best mates are Jessie and Gem. However I have all types of friends from all walks of life. The ones I hold close are the ones that I have known for a long time and have proved their worth. I do however make bonds with people very easily and have a lot of party buddies in different cities :) Love you guys!

As a promoter and musician, I have met some very famous people in business. I have been lucky to perform with artists such as Cancer, Insomnium, Napalm Death, Kill II This, In Me, Labrat, and many more if you have a browse through my pics in the Mindlapse album. There are too many to mention. However you get the idea!

I think the most special moments were meeting Machine Head, Opeth and My Ruin. Being on tour with Cancer, Insomnium and Omnium Gatherum was just amazing.

I am so lucky and so thankful I have had the opportunity to meet or perform with such talented people.

I would love to meet Jason Becker for his guitar playing and song writing ability despite the hard times is inspirational to me.

Television:

MyGen Profile GeneratorNot a tv person actually. I don't watch a soap religiously - I would rather be living my life than watch other people living their lives! However I have got time for Family Guy cos it is so unpolitically correct!!!

Duckula though.....

Books:

George Orwell is one of my favourite authors - Animal Farm (Not the porno!), Journey's End, A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare, The Hobbit and The Lord Of The Rings by JRTolkien, too many books I have read especially horror, IT by Stephen King, and various romance/fantasy novels when I have the time.

Advice For The Ladies :)

Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you're just as pretty without makeup on. Wait for the one who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he is to have you. Wait for the one who turns to his friends and says, "...that's her.

Heroes:



MyGen Profile GeneratorPeople who actually save lives of human beings, people who have come through difficult periods in their lives and still can wear a smile in public, the people who inspire others to find a passion in their lives. Some people I know I consider heroes...

Below is a video of a guitar god called Jason Becker. Even though against the odds he still made the most advanced and technical guitar music. The strength in this guy makes me realise how people in worse situations have such inner strength despite what shit they go through and it is people like him that are so inspirational to me.

The Ragebreed Street Team for helping me every step of the way. I love you guys!
