About Me

My name is Benny, I play bass for Years Of Fire (Blind Prophecy Records/Thorp Records), I'm a stage prop for Garmonbozia, I used to play bass for Ringworm (Victory Records/Deathwish Inc.), Shenoah (Corporate Punishment Records), Forever Untouched, and I sang for Snatch back in the day. I've also done side projects or filled in for bands in the likes of Dead Even, Who Killed Marilyn?, UBFB, Kapsoul, Half Raised Heathens, Ghetto Tea, and W. 98th. I have a decent amount of touring experience because of these bands, I make appearances in Every Time I Die's video for the song "The Logic Of Crocidiles" and on the Mushroomhead DVD in the extras section. Ok. Aside from music I'm 87.5 % white (I know this because me parents are all into that geneolgy stuff), I am engaged to a lovely half asian girl named Sabrina that i've been with for 4 1/2 years now, i view the world different then most people, i'm usually pretty optimistic about things, i was vegetarian for about 4 years but now i am back on the darkside of the dietary world, I live in Parma! (metal capital of the world!) I enjoy arguing about politics and religion (don't even try, I'll rip you a new asshole! haha!), i have had these dreads since the turn of the century. I'm not a violent person but i'll throwdown if its for a good reason, i'm in college (again), I have a strong labido, I am pretty sympathetic to peoples situations (sometimes I wonder if thats a good thing or not), sometimes I make desicions without thinking 1st, i'm pretty open minded, i'm somewhat of a pervert but in a good way, i firmly believe that anything and everything is possible, i can find humor in most situations, Im hung like a toddler, i'm skinny, and over all im pretty laid back accept when i'm on stage, aim = BEN JAMM1N 216
