A few words:
The star syndicate can lick my balls, and I am effectively putting a gag order on discussion of them
Two, I just formed a satanic ambient/rock group with my friend (him on drums, me on keys) and I wrote a song this morning
Three, I can watch pulp fiction if i want pulp fiction quotes
Fourth, growling/grunting/screeching vocals are easy as hell to do; they can be done by a monkey with a microphone. Quit acting like they're "OMG BR00TAL" or such because they suck. Yes, I listen to black metal and a bit of death metal, but damn, I wish people would just learn how to sing, singing's aeons harder and sounds much better. GAAAH I am sick of people who think they're the shit because they can growl/grunt/screech. I've been able to do those since I was 14, it's really not that special.
Fifth, that kid you met, Centurion Ryan, is no metalhead. He's a mallkid, and they're everywhere. Avoid him like the black plague.
