A "Metalhead" was born....

Born August 11, 1990...

I grew up listening to religious songs... The likes of Don Moen and other church songs... Mostly from the cassettes owned by my mother...

As I was in 5th grade.. I was in search for a new sound... Something new.. Something radical...
( again?! )

As far as I can remember... I went with my "ate" Christy one humid afternoon to go get some stuffs in the nearest mall... Then I went to a certain record bar... Browse for something interesting..

And so, I picked up one cassette tape with a very uncanny album art...

very weird indeed... As the album goes, "Chocolate Starfish and A Hotdog Flavored Water"...

I borrowed some money from my "ate"... Then poof! I had my very first record... And the very first band I knew, Limp Bizkit... ( one from the Nu Metal Genre )

I was very excited going home...

Upon entering the door... I went straight to our component, place the cassette, play....

Fresher sound at last! A bit heavier and faster than the songs I used to listen to as I develop...

I kept on listening to this new sound for days, weeks and months... I memorized each and every single song in the record...

I even bought all the albums they released... My very first collection....

But...

As always.. I was in search for something new... Something radical...

I tried listening to different Filipino bands... Until I heard this particular song... Titled "Agent Orange" ( from Slapshock man! )

Damn! I just can't get enough of it... And so, (again?!) I bought one of their records entitled "Headtrip"...

A headtrip it was.. Really! Songs were harsher... Guitars more distorted... and some of the vocal parts are growled...

Again, I bought all their albums... My 2nd collection...

As I entered the high school... My musical influences became more massive, thicker, badder, more contorted...

The 9-piece hard rock band Slipknot entered the picture... ( thanks to Mr. Andrew Perez! )

Very supernatural music... Growls, cries and screams comprises their songs... Fucking infernal!

I became interested in guitars... ( a hard rocker was my dream )

Not until my cousin Butch introduced Metallica... GODDAMN METAL!

Heavier but slower guitar distortions, wahs ( as in the wah-wah sounds in Metal songs ), great guitar solos and the likes... A natural high it was...

I became a fan of Metal in an instant... A lot different from hard rock...

I continued listening and exploring the metal genre for years....

New people, bands, faces, voices popped out...

Black Sabbath, Guns N' Roses, Randy Rhoads, Ozzy Osbourne, Dream Theatre, Pantera, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Soulfly, Coal Chamber and the likes...

They are the reasons why I play my guitars and eventually entered the world of a musician...

As I again, continued an unending journey... An occult sub-genre of metal knocked on my world... Black and Death Metal...

Wicked, Black and Satanic it is... Fucking awesome!

Bands like Deicide, Nile, Children of Bodom, Cradle of Filth, The Amenta and the likes makes you wanna worship the devil for some reason...

Unknown and Awful to many... Death Metal is an underground movement because of its nature... But once in your head.. it'll never get out.. for sure!

As my ears awakened the "metalhead" in me... It bloomed rage in my heart in my mind and heart... Angers were relieved, stress lessened and made me more comfortable...

Until now, whenever I am facing problems... Only double peds, distortions and growls accompany me... My friends of misery...

Welcome to a Hobby Called "BLOGGING"

Hello guys! At last!

After 3 or 4 months! I've made my 2nd blog ever.... haha!

Well... My first blog ever was on Friendster... Mostly filled w/ lyrics of songs that best described my feelings back then...

then suddenly I stopped.. Got tired of the same things I've been doing.. Everyday...

It counted almost 3 weeks.. more or less...

Then I found another interesting stuff on the net..

Answering questionnaires/surveys posted on Friendster's bulletin board...

It was really fun answering those poppycocks... It lasted for almos 2 months.. If I could remember well...

It was really cool.. and my friends went "Hey Bhenmar! All we can see in our bulletins is your face!" and went laughing out loud...

It really filled me in during boredom...

But then ... I wanted something new again...

There I decided to play flash games (for free) over the web.. It was nice and fun at first.. of course...

But playing the same games over and over again.. Damn! It was so nauseating...

Again, there I was.. Searching for a new avocation....

And there came BLOGGING...

I was a bit interested in trying the said hooey...

And eventually, the involvement grew bigger everyday...

Until...

I got an inspiration..

From our Argumentation and Debate professor...

I came home rushing... Filled with ideas on how my blog will be...

Thoughts keep poppin on my mind... One by one..

Voila!

You're reading one of them...
