Music is one of my main passions in life. I think everything is better with music playing. I grew up listening to classic rock and metal, but these days I gravitate to more modern music that can't always be pinned to a specific genre. Some of my favorites are Opeth, Porcupine Tree, Devin Townsend, Moonspell, and Katatonia.

I love to hear from other fans, and discover new music. Please feel free to use the contact me link to suggest your favorite bands, and music Websites.

Official MySpace pages for prog, rock, and metal artists. MySpace Music is a great place to get official news and updates, and hear new music.
Anekdoten
The official MySpace for this amazing progressive metal band from Stockholm Sweden.
Moonspell
Moonspell's official profile. The best description I have seen of Moonspell is that it is both brutal and melodic. They are dynamic and charismatic live, and the music addictive.
Strapping Young Lad
SYL's official MySpace. To me SYL is a mixture of testosterone, and plenty of good humor.
Wolverine
Check out this fantastic progressive metal band from Sweden. There must be something wonderful in the water there.
MySpace Music
Growing directory of official MySpace music pages. I quickly realized that there are far more official MySpace pages for great prog, rock, and metal bands, so I created a lens just for that.

Great prog, rock, and metal CDs 

These are a few of the CDs I listen to every day. I'd love to hear some of yours.

Vinland Saga

Leaves' Eyes second release. I'm completely addicted to this CD. The combination of the beautiful voice of former Theater of Tragedy vocalist Liv Kristine and the aggressive death vocals of her husband Alexander Krull is irresistable.

Release Date: 07/19/2005

Ghost Reveries

Another brilliant release from Opeth. This CD includes both the heavier side and the more haunting melodic side of Opeth. A masterpiece!

Release Date: 08/30/2005

Deadwing

A fantastic CD from my favorite band. I highly recommend Porcupine Tree to everyone and this CD is a great place to start, if you are just getting acquainted with the band.

Release Date: 04/26/2005

In Absentia

This is in my opinion, a perfect CD. Brilliant song writing, and a wonderful experience from start to finish.

Release Date: 09/24/2002
