Music

     I absolutely love music. I love everything from thrash metal to progressive rock. I love getting lost in riffs by Yes, and then later going thrashing mad with riffs by Slayer. I'm open to new music all the time. I do prefer music that is guitar orientated though.

My favorite guitar parts lately have been more on the metal and progressive rock side.. These include:
-Twilight of the Gods by Helloween
-Strike of the Beast by Exodus
-Close to the Edge by Yes
-Joy by Circulatory System

My favorite vocal parts lately have been:
-Light a Roman Candle With Me by Fun.
-Sad and Beautiful World by Sparkle Horse
-You and Whose Army? by Radiohead
-Campfire by Grizzly Bear

Latest album i've bought:
-Monotheist by Celtic Frost
     So far, I think this album is wonderful. It's a bit different then anything I've heard off of their albums To Mega Therion and Into The Pandemonium. It's darker and slower than anything i've heard by them, but I love every moment of it. They've moved from their thrash metal roots into something that is a mix of doom metal and black metal, but the thrash influence is still there.
    Some standout tracks include "Ain Elohim", "A Dying God Coming into Human Flesh", and the 21 minute monster "Triptych". The songs on this album set an extremly dark mood for the listener and it's not for the frail. I'd recommend it to anyone that enjoys doom metal or any progressive music genre.
