About

Hello fellow metalheads! I'm a longtime visitor and headbanger at MU, once part of the crew as a reviewer and contributor, now a haunting spectre!

I enjoy almost all subgenres of metal, thrash, death, prog, doom, black, funeral doom, drone, viking, power - everything apart from metalcore and deathcore.

My favourite acts include Cynic, Metallica, Watchtower, Hammers of Misfortune, At The Gates, Emperor, Death, Type O Negative, Slough Feg etc. and a whole bunch more.

Bands I'm really digging at the moment are Therion and The Chasm.

I work as a programmer for a scientific company and in my precious spare time I try and fit in some shredding, writing music and reviews, supporting local music and supporting the underground metal scene worldwide. Keep it underground and feel free to throw me an email at cynic AT metalunderground.com for any reason.
