Cool! Did you know the guy behind that band is in prison? He got 21 years for murdering another norwegian black metal musician and burning down an old church.

Which band you referring too? You mean Burzum? Maybe you should ask Raven that. The bands real notorious in Norway around the mid 90's. One-man black metal band that went around burning churches and killed the member of another guy called Euronymous from the band Mayhem. He was incarcerated at 21 and serving a 21 year sentence.
Back home here, it's hard to share my taste for music cos everyont thinks its wierd or strange. Too dark for the average chinese population I guess!
My favourite band is Type O, but I also love Danzig, this great obscure band called Drill, some old RHCP, One Minute Silence and a few other European bands. Too many to mention actually. New bands are real sh!t nowadays, except maybe Disturbed. I've a proud CD collection of over 1200 which I've been collecting for around 9 years. |

I'm in Singapore and censorship here is very strict. I had to import alot of cds that cost me my leg during the 90's. Fortunately its more relaxed now. I listen to Tool as well and I like Aenima. Its just not something that I actually play over and over again. Oh yah, I loved the early Sentenced too. But please go check out Drill. You won't regret it! They disbanded after one album but it was real wicked. And the lead singer is also very pretty. |

Not too sure about that. Very few webpages featuring them. Why not try the links from the page I posted or maybe amazon.com might have some tracks for previewing. |
