Yargh!

Sun May 7, 2006, 10:29 AM
Just thought I'd use this to tell a little about myself. My real name's Matt, I was born in November '85 in Nottingham, England and moved to Australia in 1990. I'm currently at uni majoring in World History after deciding that a career in art just isn't for me, though I'll still keep on drawing/image manipulating for fun. Career wise, I'd now like to become a historian, archaeologist or roadie ;)

My favourite type of music is Black/Viking/Folk Metal, with my favourite BM bands including Satyricon, Mayhem, Ensalved, Tsjuder, Borknagar, Cradle of Filth (>_>;), Emperor, Arcturus, Dimmu Borgir (>_>;), Bathory, Gehenna, Immortal, Marduk, Burzum, Darkthrone, Xasthur, Anaal Nathrakh, Carpathian Forest, Akercocke, 1349, Ragnarok, Inquisition, Summoning, Blut Aus Nord, Windir, Falkenbach, Massemord, Drudkh, Nokturnal Mortum, Hate Forest, Moonsorrow, The Axis of Perdition, Behemoth, The Meads of Asphodel, Gorgoroth, Pagan Reign, Korpiklaani, Finntroll, Asmegin, Zyklon-B, Reverend Kriss Hades, Bal-Sagoth, Solefald, Wyrd and Graveland.

When it comes to Thrash I dig: Sabbat, Kreator, Sodom, Testament, Destruction, Sepultura, Sarcofago, Celtic Frost, Pantera and Venom.

When it comes to Death Metal I dig: Amon Amarth, Behemoth, Nile, Akercocke, Myrkskog, Psycroptic, Necrophagist, Dying Fetus, Bloodbath, Decapitated, Death and Vader.

When it comes to Goth Metal I dig: The Gathering (Best band evar!), Lacuna Coil, Tristania, Within Temptation, Theatre of Tragedy and Leaves Eyes.

When it comes to Doom I dig: Amorphis, Katatonia, My Dying Bride, Anathema, Yob, Sunn0))), Witchcraft, Reverend Bizzarre, Solitude Aeturnus and Esoteric.

When it comes to Melodic Death I dig: At The Gates, In Flames, Arch Enemy and Dark Tranquility.

Assorted other bands that I dig: Children of Bodom, Nevermore, Strapping Young Lad, Dargaard, dredg, Oceansize, Gåte, Cruachan, Opeth, The Distillers, Dead Kennedys, Turbonegro, Between the Buried and Me, Burst, Elend, Jethro Tull, Porcupine Tree, Merciful Fate, Mistress, Mortiis, Napalm Death, Nightwish, Opera IX and The Ocean.

I have an interest in the supernatural, cryptozoology, folklore and mythology. Amongst my hobbies/interests are playing guitar, zombie films, AFL (Aussie Footy), the V8 Supercars, hackey sack and art.

Haha, don't worry, snapped jigsaw blades are pretty common, I think I snapped one or two back in the day ;)

Nah, I used this photo [link] for my woodcut, which can be seen here [link]

Although it was time consuming and a right pain in the arse, I loved doing the woodcut printing :D

Have you done acid etching yet? That shit's scary, working with acid n all. Plus I ended up doing my entire print backwards, forgeting to flip it for the printing process. Epic fail >_>
