About Me

OK, LET'S START FROM THE VERY BEGINNING: if you state in your personal info that books are "not for you", and your only passion in life is glamorous partying, PLEASE, DON'T BOTHER ME WITH YOUR REQUESTS!!! I'm not a friend collector, and I won't die for any new contact in the list. But I'm always glad to see anyone who doesn't share a commonly used opinion that brain is an atavism. If you still want to get acquainted with me, then...Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome... To the one and only... The most brutal EVER... The Target Metal FREAKuency!!!
Does THIS ^ really need any introduction?Yes, I am the one lucky enough to participate in giving birth to TWO monsters of Russian metal media. I do the weekly radioshow "The Target" on Russian national radio channel Radio Russia, and this is, to say so, my older "child". We're on air for 4 years, and hell, some 10 million listeners cannot be wrong! Apart from that I do an editor's job for the new-born Russian version of Metal Hammer magazine. You got it right, you have to treat me very nice :)) Heheh, just kidding. Just be who you are, and I'll appreciate you here on my page.This is my personal one, a digital piece of my memory and a meeting place. Later, probably, I'll add some news feature about my business things, but not now, OK? And now feel free to approach me for any kind of issues or questions, that's what I'm here for.It's an open space, so I'd like to keep it friendly and informal. So, you can be as loud and crazy as you want, but please, without offending anyone. Have a good time, and HORNS UP!!!

My Interests

As the classic wrote, 'It is in Music... supernal Beauty" - so what makes me live and die, breathe and sacrifice numerous things to it is music, music and some more music! This is the crucial element that determines every other aspect of my life. That's why I'm living and bleeding for doing my best at 'TARGETing' and 'HAMMERing' your heads. Also the range of my interests includes photography, creative madness, reading, writing, thinking, travelling, visiting numerous gigs, backstage diving, getting headless - and that's all because of music!

I'd like to meet:

Quorthon, Chuck Schuldiner, Dimebag Darrell among the others... and considering the living people - anyone thoughtful and creative. Anyone who lists a word "thinking" among his hobbies and dares to be individual.

Music:

Every rock and metal act that's creative enough to be different

Movies:

The Rainman, The Silence Of The Lambs, Knocking On Heaven's Door, Easy Rider, The Crow, Thelma And Louise, Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas, Requiem For A Dream

Television:

only when it's switched off - I can't stand this flashing screen!!! If it happens that I have a single free minute, there's always a lot of much more interesting and pleasant ways to kill my time.

Books:

Every thought-provoking piece of literature. Historical books, especially those dedicated to ancient dark beliefs and traditions. Also some fiction books, to name a few authors - George Orwell, Edgar Allan Poe, Howard P. Lovecraft, Arthur Rimbaud, Charles Baudelaire, Anton S. LaVey, Charles Bukowski, William Golding, Anthony Burgess, Yukio Mishima, Iain Banks, Neil Gaiman and many others. And of course music biographies

Heroes:

By creating heroes you destroy yourself. There are the people I sincerely respect, but they're not my heroes, or gods, or whatever. And being one of 6 or 7 billion centers of this world, I'm the only real hero for myself - because I'm the only one whom I can see in every shattering detail - and enthrone or desecrate, it depends.
