Influences:

I get inspired by people who live and breathe their passion,
wether it's music, painting, poetry, carving or any form of creation.

Musically I grew up listening to the following

Led Zep, Sabbath, The Stones, The Beatles, T-Rex/Marc Bolan, Donovan, Bowie, Alice Cooper, Aerosmith, Heart, Twisted Sister, Cat Stevens, Ritchie Havens, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Robert Johnson and later W.A.S.P, Guns N Roses, Living Colour (Corey Glover Vocals of Doom), Metallica and Motley Crue. Tom Keifer, The Tea Party / Mr Jeff (God) Martin, Tod Howarth.

Then came those who I saw on the local scene, that I was fortunate enough to meet and later become friends with, these people have had a major impact on me, not only musically but also in Life. I am very honoured to know the following:
Paul (Noizemonster) Muller
Ruben & Rick Sanchez,
Ash Gravino
Claude Hay
Henri De Boer
And I'm heavily into the written word, so these poets have an effect on my psyche.

The Brothers Grimm, Poe, Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Henry Rollins,


Then for more Blackness.

I grew up watching any Horror movie and reading any dark novel there was to be found.

I saw the Exorcist as a young child and would sit up watching the late night Horror movies with my Dad.
He'd take every opportunity to scare the hell out of me, it was great, I look back on those times with great fondness.
The Exorcist is my favourite novel without doubt, followed closley by Legion.

Sounds Like:

"Emotional rawness, along with a voice to die for, a guitar style integral to your material.
A terrific presence, visually and energetically.
What makes you stand out in my eyes, is that you've found your own voice".
