i worship all things rock. except goth. i just like it, not worship it.
anyways, i find myself encompassed by japanese rock. or any japanese music that i hear and start liking.
some of the j-bands i lurve are:
UVERworld
Beat Crusaders
High and Mighty Colours
BECK/Mongolian Chop Squad (they're not even real

FROZEN FIRE (that is SO going to be my band name, and i'll be vocals/guitar! YAY!)
now it's time for me to leave,
because it's waaaaaaaay past bedtime.
run away from all the pain
angst has got you wrapped in chains.
slit your wrist and drain the blood
because it's worthless, dirtier than mud.
0.o randomness.
