About Me

My technical data can be seen on the left ;) These are just some fotos of mine ;)
Proud to be a part of:
A great band worth to be checked out:
How I discovered Heavy Metal:
I think I started listening to Rock-Music at the age of 8 or 9 when my piano teacher gave me some of his Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple Records.
At the age of 11 or 12 I started listening to Metallica and Guns 'n' Roses - everybody at my age was doing so - then I went on to Hardcore.
At the age of 15 - I had blue hair at that time - I went shopping with my mum and I bought my first Metalmagazine, Heavy oder was?! was it called. The two CDs of the month were:
My Dying Bride - The angel and the Dark River
and
Death - Symbolic. These 2 CDs still have a divine status for me and since that date.....
