Remorse for the human race. Fear of becoming them.

About Me


I am Animal
A complete lunatic, I'm operating on 100% animal instincts.
I thrive on uncontrolled energy, and I can be downright scary.
But I sure can beat a good drum.
"Kill! Kill!" The Muppet Personality Test

Well, other than that...

I'm a metal/rock drummer from Iceland. Bands I have had the pleasure of drumming in: Changer, Potentiam, Dark Harvest, Shiva, Bootlegs, Obscured Signal, Pornea.
Drumming is my life, even if I also play the guitar every now and then.

I am also a kindergarten teacher, graduated in spring 2005, but have worked in kindergartens since 1999.

I am very metal looking: long hair, beard, leatherjacket, jeans... You get the picture.

I consider myself to be a good friend, since I care very much for my own.

More with time...

8 years

Eight years is a long time, and this feels strange - I have to say... --- After lengthy discussions the band Changer has decided to break up, after 8 years of existence. Uncontrollable internal circum...

Being stupid
