About Me

I made this myspace background atSo, here's to history...and getting old. Oh, I'm not done, by any means. Just taking a break at present. This is just really my site to honor past bands, endless hours, lots of sweat, bleeding eardrums, great beer, crappy beer, vodka, whiskey, mouthwash, shredded throat, and "do-overs". To all the dudes that have jammed (I don't even remember some of the names over the past 17 years!), I raise my glass to you now. This thing has encompassed half of my life at this juncture. Can't believe that. Anyway, that is what this site is for. I need to convert a bunch of tapes/demos/recordings from the old daze to make them compatible with modern technology (some day). And hopefully, I can put some of that up on this site one day. For now, what you hear is what you get....several bands here...Sixth Circle, Jimmyproof, All Gods Die. I have been influenced since the first time I was able to comprehend rebellion and distortion (that'd be 1982's "You Can't Stop Rock 'N Roll" by Twisted Sister). And it's been that way ever since. I love metal, punk, rock, hardcore, crossover, thrash, death, doom, sludge, and anything else that is aggressive and uncompromising. You sellouts and grownups can have your money-grubbing, corporate, no-integrity music. Me? I'll never "grow up". This is it. And it is for life. So, raise a set of horns and a finely-crafted ale and enjoy.

Just some thoughts...

Okay, first of all, I really miss Indymetal.com.  That site kept me abreast of all metal happenings in the state of Indiana.  I don't like IMN or the Indy Hardcore site.  I want metal.  So, please, so...
