About me:

Greetings traveller,

I have a beautiful girlfriend named Jess. I love her very much, always and forever.


I've studied both Builiding Design, and Music Business at Victoria University 2005/2007. The music one was a great course, and helped build my love of local music/live music/music business. Its led me to run a few gigs, help out with others, and run a website dedicated to Australian Heavy Metal called www.MetalObsession.net



I've been backpacking in Europe for months during 2006 with friends, some great experiences both in terms of travel and life experiences. Our main intention was to go to the Football World Cup in Germany, but travelling probably ended up being the point of the trip. I got to visit countires such as Germany, France, England, Scotland, Czech Republic and Austria, but easily my favourite places were in Scandinavia,especially the Western Fjords of Norway, and Lapland in Finland/Sweden. Props to Mat, Joe, Scott, Christian and Jess for sharing the experience!

I also got to go to the amazing place that is the WACKEN OPEN AIR! Here I got to see my favourite band ever, the mighty AMON AMARTH, along with other favourites such as Wintersun, Korpiklaani, Arch Enemy, Opeth and so on...

I am fascinated by Norse Mythology, Vikings and Scandinavia in general. Other 'hobbies' include music if that wasn't already apparent due to my page. I live for my heavy metal. Especially Death metal and anything progressive be it metal or other.

Love my Aussie metal too. Check out my music section if your interested.

Who I'd like to meet:


Rest In Peace, Pop

Thanks for the kind words Brendan, we can't wait to show you!

We were actually considering sending you guys @ metal obsession a burnt copy of the disk, but because the lyrics and artwork are such a big part of the package, we feel it will limit the experience somewhat.

We will be sure to send you guys a free copy once we get them printed and pressed, which isnt far away!

Thanks

Good ol' Lolken.
Always good to be in touch with cool people; hopefully we get to do some gigs down your way in the future. In the meantime, follow the link from our Myspace if you're inclined or intrigued and download our demo album 'Antediluvian' and let us know what you think.
Cheers man, enjoy your week and all the best.

On the Ayera new songs?

I think they are pretty good. Its nothing amazing, but its the best we have to offer and i think its a pretty damn decent effort. Im really excited to record and show the public. Ill get a copy out to you mate. Im really excited about the future more than anything. I think in a few years we will be a decent force in the metal scene. Right now we are armatures, but we are learning and we'll be there one day. ..m/
