My name is Matt, and I love music. I'm just a fragile little Swedish kid living in Mesa, Arizona. So don't be scared to strike up a conversation with me! I love reading philosophy, books about psychology, and stuff of the like. I've been a dedicated guitarist for 8 years now, a percussionist (not a drummer) for about 4, and an avid vocalist for 2 (but not very good at the latter).

My favorite metal bands are Swallow the Sun, Shining, Lantlos, Agalloch, Behemoth, Gris, Carach Angren, The Black Dahlia Murder, Watain, Dark Fortress, Dark Tranquillity, Katatonia, Austere, Wolves in the Throne Room, My Dying Bride, Insomnium, Ulcerate, Anaal Nathrakh, Immolation, At The Gates,Ihsahn, Insomnium, Miserere Luminis, Draconian, and many more.

My favorite non-metal artists are: Deftones, Circa Survive, Faith No More, Lydia, Mr. Bungle, Earl Sweatshirt, Emarosa, Moving Mountians, Tyler The Creator, The Mars Volta, Mudvayne, Gorillaz, Marilyn Manson, As Tall As Lions, Angelo Badalamenti, Clint Mansell, Atmosphere, Mogwai, Explosions In The Sky, Eminem, The Used, Immortal Technique, among others.

I love.... lamp. Oh, and porn.
