Painting,guitars, photography, art, endless nihilism, other dimensions, extremes, transcendence, decay. Carpathia, guitar solos, classical music and art. Figurative painters, the Pre-Raphaellites, Gustave Moreau, Gustave Dore.The only modern painter I enjoy is Mark Rothko, because somehow his layers of color were very spiritual when I saw his show. I especially enjoy his later works right up until he commited suicide.
musicians to jam with. Ian asbury's long lost twin or an equally fascinating man, into mysticism, music and life with long black hair. Satyr, Frost, Ishan, Pete steele (again) Someone with a fierce heart and a warrior spirit. A mirror, an echo, the other half of the crystal shard.. an elf prince..(Actually I've already met this person.)I would like to somehow populate my favorite historic town with a bunch of black metal kids, the way you would purchase goldfish for a pond. I'm sure that would prove disasterous, since they would only leave trails of ash and flame. Ok, nevermind. Also I'd like to meet someone who knows the anwser to this:"Why is a raven like a writing desk" Come on, someone anwser this, it's not hard.
Too many to name, my record collection is endless and obsessive cataloguing a somewhat wide range of music spanning a few decades. Emphasis on underground 90's bands, some indie rock, but mostly metal. I generally dislike American music because we're commericlaly driven and lacking souls. Are Emperor the most perfect band ever? I think they have a good chance of winning that competition. Other contenders include Mercyful Fate and Mr. Diamond, Immortal, Bathory, Puressence, whom none of you will recognize, The Manic Street Preachers -for their passionate nihilism and original appitite for ultimate destruction. You have to love a band that attacks Christianity, Capatilism, America, and everyhting else in its way. I know do. Bands nowadays lack fire, they're too complacent. Most metal is garbage and I think the only decent thing to listen to is at least 10 years old. Whats the use of listing Satyricon when even they've sold out too?? It''s all just a gimmick and black metal is the new in thing the same way that those Orgy homos were the new
The Cemetery Man, The Young Posioner's Handbook, David Lynch, David Cronenburg, The dark Crytal, The Neverending Story, LOTR, Hell House, The Piano, the Hell raiser series, anything by clive barker, Italianhorror films, others i cant remember right now.
I only watch cartoons. Because I hate mortals so.
I prefer literature over popular fiction. I like something with a challenge, like James Joyce for example or Joseph Conrad. Others include: Dante, Lord Byron, The torture Garden by Octave Mireau, Clive Barker, Camus, Kafka, Herman Hesse, all those other mopey extentialists,Neitsche, j.r.r Tolkien, Witch Fire by James Clemens which is a very entertaining fantasy, Hell House. There's still a lot I have yet to read...
Anyone who is a musician and remains true to themselves.
