Metal will stay in my veins untill I die.

I like allmost all metalgenres, but Doom Metal and Nu metal are not my favorites.
Quote: "I listened to some of your tracks and I thought they were great, the blackened death influences certainly were evident."
Thanks, dude. Yeah, there's definatly some blackened death influence in my music, but I try other genres too. I grew up with bands as Iron Maiden, Saxon, Slayer, Mercyful Fate, Venom, Megadeth, Metallica, etc...
Quote: "I'd like to do something which gives everyone a chance to explore, and black/death gives quite a lot of freedom I think."
Yeah, even in black/death there's room for improvisation, like progressive/technical/melodical...
A band that I really like too, is Akercocke. There's so much variation in their music, which gives them a unique sound.
@The Wilderbeast:
Do you have some tracks or songs of your own that I can listen too?

Too bad, Herakles. Would have been fun doing, though.
