About Me

Yes, I'm Kevin Ng... more infamously known as the guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter of Bootlegs of the Untitled Band.

Some people have said that I'm the nicest person they know, while others say I'm violent and a demon in disguise. I don't really know which one's the truth; I'll really just leave it up to you to decide.

Look. I'll be honest. I didn't even want any space. But hell, my friend Issac made this thingashigger for me, so I might as well use it.

About me... about me... .... ... well that's it. I've been thinking about me too long. I feel pretty damn selfish now. Lets see... What about you? BELIEVE ME, you're far more interesting than you give credit for.

My Interests

Drawing, Writing, Composing/Performing Music, Painting (sometimes), backyard wrestling... I guess that sums that one up. I'm also a veteran anime and videogame dork, but I don't care much for new stuff though. ... ... I also have weird thoughts that make up the collective philosophy known as Kevitude.

Another interest of mine is not doing math or science... I. HAAAAAAAAAATE THAAAATTT STUFF

I'd like to meet:

I'm not sure; "Who would I like to meet?"

...who WOULD I like to meet?

Anyone, I guess. Just come visit Uncle Kevin Ng sometime... and we'll see what happens from there.

Music:

My favorite bands [in no particular order] would be: Radiohead, Modest Mouse, Minawo (they're FUCKING AWESOME), From Bubblegum to Sky, The Smashing Pumpkins, Zwan, L'Arc~en~Ciel, Ugly Casanova, The Flaming Lips, The Jimmy Chamberlin Complex, Cat Power, Thee Silver Mt. Zion, Gorillaz, BOOTLEGS OF THE UNTITLED BAND (oh wait, that's MY BAND!), China Smoke and The Mongols. I know you're probably reading this and in truth I do love a lot of indie/alternative music, BUT I don't diss any genre. I'm pretty musically open. The only thing though about that: I probably haven't tuned onto the radio in about 2 years... I usually just listen to things through recommendations and other things.

Movies:

Back to the Future [Part One was the best], Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, UHF, Apocalypse Now, Battle Royale, The Shawshenk Redemption, Mallrats, Clerks, [Well actually now that you mention it] ... most Kevin Smith films, Nadesico: The Prince of Darkness, Mirrormask and... (yes) Forest Gump.

Television:

I'm not really so big on this thing called 'television' but what I have seen/see is... Aqua Teen Hunger Force [It's really more intelligent than people give it credit for], Lost, King of the Hill, Red Dwarf, TNA IMPACT!... I also like a bunch of anime (but they aren't shown on TV...) like Cromartie, Nadesico, Pretear, and Niea_7. KODOCHA. I absolutely love KODOCHA.

Books:

Letsee... there's a lot, but my favorite would be The Stranger. Other books that come close to being my favorite would be Brave New World, Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers, Heart of Darkness, Ask the Dust, and the Man in the Ceiling. I honestly loved John Gardner's Grendel, but you can't appreciate it without having read Beowulf... and quite frankly, I hated Beowulf... so... ... I'm not sure what to say on that. Theres also a lot of comic books I could mention here... my all time favorite is Neil Gaiman's Death: The High Cost of Living.

Heroes:

I have lot of friends I could possibly put right here, but I don't want to put anyone on the spot.

My Blog

"The Apple Clung on to a Dead Tree" EP recording continues...

Definetely a [for a lack of a better term] "darker" work. As much as I'll admit "A Rabbit's Foot for Stray Black Cats" and "The Normal One" are probably two of the best songs I've ever written, I will...
