Don't Be Afraid of the Dark
Greetings from e.V., creature of the night! Welcome to my radio show, which airs every Tuesday morning on CKCU-FM 93.1 and webcast.
Come join me for a 4 hour excursion into the dark, every week as I indulge in my um, aural fixation VERY EARLY every Tuesday (late Mondays in some North American time zones).
HEAR US ANYWHERE with a computer connection 'COS WE WEBCAST
[though based in the frequently frozen capital of Canada on CKCU-FM, 93.1. [THE MIGHTY 93!].]
In hour 3, I dig up two cool bands or artists every week to for you to, ugh, dig. ;) Bringing you new stuff, old stuff, obscure stuff. From the unsigned, and the unreleased to the just released... to just plain good stuff!
Tune in early Tuesday between 2 a.m. (Eastern Time) till 6 in the morning. Featuring the (usually) hour-long segment, "Lady Death Presents" starting at the top of hour 3 (4 a.m.)
I am a pusher of various musics, including, shall we say "Romantic Metal" - stuff that tells a story: folk, goth, doom, stoner, old 70's style, some melodic death metal and the prettier black metal stuff.
If it's romantic, powerful and true I'll play it - better still if it's dark and delicious 'cos I am all about the creepysweet - whether it's the more operatic & intricate and/or intense styles or the softer/acoustic stuff and the just plain impish! ;)

You are The Moon
Hope, expectation, Bright promises.
The Moon is a card of magic and mystery - when prominent you know that nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns relationships. All logic is thrown out the window.
The Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful magic, primal feelings and intuition. You may be going through a time of emotional and mental trial; if you have any past mental problems, you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage. This time however, can also result in great creativity, psychic powers, visions and insight. You can and should trust your intuition.
Vincent Price; E.A. Poe; CHUM-FM; CHOM-FM; Vincent Furnier; Ray Bradbury; Aubrey Beardsley; Farouk Bulsara; Harlan Ellison; Fritz Leiber; Elvira, Mistress of the Dark; Howard Stern; Oprah (ha!); Tim Burton; Neil Gaiman; Daniel Davies; Liana K.
Metal, goth & more! From doom to gloom, from steam to scream, dream the dead of night away to various sorts of metal (doom, folk/viking, stoner, goth, melodic death & black, prog, symphonic) & goth - with powerpop, electro; psychedelic, indie, alt rock, some punk, folk and world thrown into the mix during the last 2 hours of the show.

You Scored as True Alternative
You are a True Alternative! Labels do not suit you well, particularly as you tend to strike your own path and to grow purely via experience. No armchair quarterbacking for you! Originality and creation are your specialities, and sometimes you can even articulate what the hell just happened. Someday you may find yourself drawing the maps for other people... lots of other people.

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David

Valeu demais a força! Quando rolaumtempinho, me fala o que achou da £leTriKa. Agente junta Metal com umasparada Brasileira. Tamutendumbom feed nas rádios gringas nos quatrocontos. Mantenha contato, blz?
Visions of gigantic tentacles devouring stars, huge living mountains, desert plains whence arise columns infinitely large and dark, deformed beings wandering in the cosmos and attracting some universe at them, for their destruction ... take place in my head, again and again ..
Over the years I had the need to express them through all forms of art available to me. The music has been most revealing. For 10 years, I try to transcribe it by the sound, this magnificent horrors. With the first verse, "La Montagne Vivante" ("the Living Mountain"), i began a long journey wich will last three albums and will drown the listener in my visions, my nightmares, my fantasies and my dreams ...
EVIE, I wanna thank you for taking the time out to do all those necessary steps to get the votes in! If not everyone, - and that means - you ... this would not have worked! :) Step 2: Enjoy my Vio7 music... better yet, get your very own CD/downloads ( Vio7 on ---> iTunes/ or www.amazon.com ) so that we (I?) could live on your phone/iPod wherever you may roam ;)
Thank you again, in appreciation, your friend - Armand
PS. Check this one out - for Vio7 fans, by Vio7 fans and it is all about Vio7 fans...wouldn't you agree you belong here? Have a peak and become a 'friend' ;)---> www.myspace.com/vio7vixens <--- Thank you in the name of those who originated this in UK not too ago... :)
PPS. don’t keep this a secret, tell your friends about your new find (ever so hot & brand new line-up of musicians, only about a month old now!)... Vio7!
PPPS. look at those insane numbers (just about 700 votes ABOVE the #2 guy ?!?!?!) from the Hawties voting poll - I posted a screenshot of it I took little bit before the voting ended... (it's under Hawties '09 folder in Pics on this profile)
As I wipe my eyes this beautiful mornin,,Ahhhhhh Haaaaa!!I can see Fridays right over there,,Hummm??? Thinkin I'm gonna getterrrrr done and Knock this day out,,Me needs the weekend,,lol,,Stoppin by ta say Hi!!!
eVie, THIS IS IT, I have ONE LAST favor to ask you, could I? Since, as you might’ve heard, my picture won at the monthly level & Round 1, I got nominated for the LongHair Hawtie of the Year Finals (!) that end in a few days and... - was hoping for those 6 votes from you ;)
Yeah, you do need to get accepted as a friend of www.MySpace.com/OfficialLongHairHawties before you can vote, but they’re nice girls (the hawtie folks), no harm whatsoever :)
Thank you so much already, In appreciation, - Armand
PS. since it till probably take at least 700+ votes for final win - a very 'evil' thought - maybe you can tell your friends to vote too? ;) Could you ask around?
