News: I'm in Montreal for a few months. I'll be back near the end of April.
Personality: I'm a nice guy, but I can also be a rude jerk. I guess it just depends how you come accross to me. It takes quite a bit to make me angry, partially because I'm usually very laid back. I'm unphased by anything, really.
Many people seem to think I'm strange, probably because I tend to be overly crude, especially at inappropriate times. It doesn't really bother me.
Bands:
I now sing for the greatest power metal band of all time, called Guardians of Power!. We're exceptionally humble. James from Ocean's Away took over on bass, in case you were wondering. (Don't worry, he listens to lots of Maiden) Also, we're recording our full-length studio album, The Gates of Amongarath very, very soon, so look out for tracks that don't sound like crap at a store near you!
I was the bassist/backup vocals for a grindcore band named Soy Not Oi!; we moved here from Portland. I don't believe that we'll be playing any shows anytime soon, unfortunately. Dave was eaten by a capitalist, and I've been imprisoned by the state for animal-molestation. Chris got a girlfriend, so he's out.
i also played rythym guitar for a power metal band called Rheem Ruud. We had such good publicity that we had a following and merchandise; remarkable, considering that we never played a show.
if you want to get a hold of any of my bands albums, message me and ill hook it up.
LIKES
coolerthanXyou crew
Heckling bands.
vegans(that arent braindead hippies), anarchists, libertarians, those dirty commies, skaters, Gamma Ray, power metal, death metal, punk rock, grindcore, screamo, hardcore, classical music, oldies, funk, reggae, ska, psychobilly, rythym & blues, old country....yeah. pretty much everything, as long as it doesn't start with "nu," or "new."
girls with glasses. especially when they're thick black framed. oh baby.
every arnold schwarzenaggar movie made, ever (except jingle all the way, thats a sinbad movie...doesnt count). im not sure why, but im obsessed.
most recently, ive taken an interest in ancient cultures, especially Norse Loria; how they developed, etc.
staring at clouds, looking at how trees & **** like that have formed over the years. natural phenomenons basically. smoke swirls & oil stains on the road. things of that sort.
Drunk Punk Ian.

DISLIKES
the state, oppression in all it's forms, assholes, womanizers, racists, homophobes, sexists, hard drugs & junkies.
Anyone who blindly believes in anything. Uncompromising faith (religious, political, social, whatever) is VERY dangerous. Do your research thoroughly before you commit yourself to anything wholeheartedly.
How misinformation is amplified exponentially from generation to generation.
Viewing the world as bipolar. What works flawlessly in one situation may be a recipie for disaster in another.
Every now and then, realizing that I've completely turned my back on every single thing I used to believe in. Selling out sucks ass.
The growing violence of skinheads these days. Too many assholes are giving the good ones a bad name, and things are going to wind up very messy before it stops.
cell phones. seriously, what do you have to say that is so important it requires you to babble on all day long?
Poetic hippy crap.
cars.
sleater-kinney, the distillers, Phil Collins, etc.
the whole concept of "beauty" products.
people with crybaby "perpetual victim" attitudes. always focusing on the negative aspects of life won't make you feel any better or solve your pathetic problems, suck it up and deal with it.
the way today's youth converse with each other. it seems that every sentance i hear from their mouths starts with "and i was like," or "s/he was like,"... theres a whole langauge full of words out there, try using them.
anyone who actually believes that there is nothing wrong with the world.
persons that cant accept the fact that other people are entitled to differing opinions.
when people with whom i share simalar beliefs vehemently oppose other beliefs i have. its annoying as hell. (yeah, i know that kind of contradicts the previous statement)
bad spelling or grammar on my behalf...
the fact that i will probably never meet an anarcho-capitalist vegan envrionmentalist girl that listens to grindcore and power metal. what a ******* ripoff.
Working for the man.
when you enternexus fuckers keep taking off my pictures! die assholes!
and the crazy hooligan who occasionally breaks into my account to post dead horse related pictures. sure, its hilarious, but come on!
