I also like general bits of ska, classical, death/black/thrash/doom/ prog/etc metal, 1960s pop, hip hop, decent pop, general funky shit, miscellaneous noisy shit like Ted Maul, Venetian Snares and Assemblage 23 (not that those three have anything in common at all) but basically my music taste extends to anything I can get my dirty paws on. which is a shitload more than just the above. I might as well just list what i don't like. Don't like it? I really don't care.

Movies:

Pulp Fiction, Gladiator, Amélie, Batman Begins, Reservoir Dogs, The Original Matrix, Indiana Jones, V for Vendetta, Moulin Rouge. also pirate-related material. but recently I figure that aforementioned of the carribbean is not really that good. ARRRRRRR.

Television:

The News (hellz yeah!) History Channel endless repeats of stuff vaguely related to the nazis, South Park, Lost, Family Guy, Spaced, Green Wing, Have I Got News For You, music videos. but as a general rule I avoid watching the fucking thing.

Books:

Historical fiction (eg. Robert Harris)
Historical fact (eg. Anthony Beevor)
Political (eg George Orwell)
Non-gay Fantasy (eg Philip Pullman)
Travel/biography (eg Bill Bryson)
Open to anything really.

Heroes:

Me mates, bastards, general associates and everyone who has influenced me in that life thing. Maynard James Keenan, Chuck Schuldiner, Karl Marx, Confucius..... etc.
