Yes please!
80s, goth, industrial, 4AD, classical, some electro.
Not too keen on reggae, much of the top 40 or most of the new so-called alternative/indie stuff.
Funk, progressive, fusion and the likes makes me physically ill.
I play bass, write songs & DJ.
Some great Norwegian bands:
♦ Magenta
♦ The Machines
♦ Magicka
♦ Nebelhexe
♦ Ask Embla
♦ Mortiis
♦ Super Jupiter
♦ Femme Brutale
♦ Combichrist
♦ White Lord Jesus
♦ Theatre of Tragedy
ToT has an amazing new vocalist, I can't wait for them to make their new material public :)

About me:
Serena Maneesh are playing in the US this month!!!
If you ever listened to bands like Slowdive and My Bloody Valentine, you DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS BAND!
Check out their MySpace for details...
If you want customized MP3 Flashplayers, please read here!
Fickle & opinionated.
Usually quite nice.
I am Norwegian.
I travelled a lot.
I ended up in California.
I like it here.
I miss my friends.
I don't miss the snow.
I know a little about a lot; just enough to be pretty much in a constant state of
confusion, awe and exploration.
There can be no understanding
between the hand and the brain
unless the heart acts as mediator.
-Maria, Metropolis, 1927
I've recently started skinning Flash Mp3-players, as seen below, and in my blog.
Feel free to download them - a message would be cool if you end up using one...
For further information on putting an mp3-player on your page, getting help
and finding lots of awesome skins, please visit
Pyros mp3s and/or Help With Music Players.
Instructions in Norwegian here :)
My current playlist - once I manage to convert .wma files to .mp3,
I'll include some of my own as well as friends' music.
Enjoy, or turn it off :)
The tunes have variable volume. I apologize for this,
but you may adjust the volume to your liking by pulling the small triangular shape.

Who I'd like to meet:
...Elvis?
Seriously though - I'm mainly here to keep up with friends.
I'll be very happy to add people I know, maybe also people it seems I have a lot in common with.
No one else; what's the point in having 301 564 501 "friends" on a list I won't ever look at?
Same goes for bands, I'll add those I either know, and/or really really like, and have liked for some time, and have reasons for keeping updated on.
So, if we don't know each other, and there seems to be some reason we should, please send a li'l message or something.
Oh, and I am married. Happily, and monogamously.
