Believe it or not!!

Sorry I've not been online much; busy times a-happenin'!! I hope everyone's been well!!

Bloody hell, my last journal entry was in October!! Well, since then a fair bit has happened, I've joined yet another black metal band on bass called "Zebadiah Crowe" (Found here: [link] ) I've also started up a death metal band with some local friends in the area, which should prove to be entertaining!! I'll let you know about that when we don't have such rough, grim copies of our very few songs, hahaha!

Other than musical escapades, I've had my first bit of artwork published!! Woop woop! :3 It's an anthology of lots of short stories called Layer Zero; I did three illustrations for a poem at the end, and also drew up a sexy goat man for the pin-up section (easy cowboy! ) The book can be found on Amazon and in bookshops and things (but you have to order them in), but there really are some kick-ass artists and writers and a lot of different, unique styles! More info on Layer Zero here:

I've also been working on some concept art for a possible full-length graphic novel that I'd do all of the illustration for by myself; so fingers crossed that they go well! *screams with fear* XD

Holy crap and other stuff! My last full-time work day was on Friday; so no more all weekdays!!! I just work Wednesday evenings now, so lots of time to work on stuff until I start my foundation course in September! I'll be going to the Thurrock Tech College nearby, and then do my BA in London the following year

And before I forget; I finally have my own little car!! NYEEEEAOM! It's a little black and silver Micra that's five months older than myself (hahaha!!) But in nice working condition; and bitchin' sound system! So heads up if you see it with some Cannibal Corpse/Marduk/Carcass or whatever blasting out the windows! I've only been driving to friends houses' and practice and stuff, but I'll need it to get to college

That's all I think! Frostbitten hails from me and the little Dukie, and I hope everyone has been well!

Yo!! :3

I hope everyone's doing well!! ^_^

Errr, about the whole not updating this for a gazillion years thing off the top of my head...

-I've been working at WHSmith's full-time since April (Pass me a shotgun!)

-I've finally passed my driving test! Took long enough, haha!

-The Furious Horde have a new song up (well, a couple of months now XD Sorry!) called "Dogma I" on the MySpace; and have been working hard on an album called Funky Necro Poo-Poo (Well...that probably won't be the title, but I'll pretend it is because it's cool ) [link]

-I did some work with UK black metal band Orion on a split album; I wrote and played the guitar for "XIX"; but alas, a lot of my death metal riffage wasn't used! Understandable really ^_^; That's on MySpew too; [link]

-I have my first solo exhibition at Shenfield Library! :3 Kinda nervousssyyyy! It's there until Oct 31st I'll hopefully get some pictures up soon!

Other than that...I think that's mainly most of what I wanted to say! Duke says hi, and hopefully I'll finally get to buckling down with art again soon! If ever I get off these sodding 9-5.30 shifts D: Sure I have evenings, but shhhh! XD

Today's journal image iiiiis...me! In the middle of TALKING! Wow, didn't guess that did you! [link]


Last week we did some recording for a new promo video for one of our more 'catchy' songs "Devil's Coachman" at Jigga Jam studios; here's the result!! Warning: MAY CAUSE GIANT SATAN SEIZURES

(Second one down. First one is a totally different band XD)

Please pass it onto any metallers you know who may enjoy it!! It would mean so much!!

Also, the lovely *SilaZ made a stamp, which can be found here!! ^w^ [link]

This Monday April 7th, we have the Battle of The Bands at The Drayman in Bexleyheath...it's our first round, and hopefully not last!! Very excited and slightly nervous lol! x_x;;

And for those of you who don't know yet, and use scary sites...the band's MySpace *scared wee* ;-;

I also got tagged about fifty years ago by ~FatherStone and =TalkingOfTheTrees !

The rules:
1. You have to post the rules
2. Every person tagged has to write 10 things about themselves
3. You have to write them in your journal
4. After that, tag 5 more people
5. Go to that person's page and tell them about it

1.) I can be a bit of a perfectionist at times; very harsh x_x Although in a way it makes me try harder, which is always good!

2.) I love Magus (my guitar), Duke (my guinea pig), art and metal more than I could EVER love any stinky person!

3.) Whereas most people have a brown patch for a birthmark, I have a patch of bubbly, reptilian skin on the lump of my right wrist lol!

4.) How many are we up to? Jeez...*running out of interesting things to say* My life's dream is to run away and live in an enchanted forest of anthropomorphic animals. (No, not the stupid whored-up anime ones that make out with each other, I mean the sweet ones like from Animal Crossing!)

5.) I'm commonly mistaken to be male despite having hair down to my arsehole! Gender means nothing to me, all humans are equal scum no matter WHAT abomination lie between their filthy little legs! It frustrates me that people make such a big deal out of it!

6.) I have a dodgey little toenail on my right foot.

7.) I absolutely love dark, surreal, atmospheric stuff. But on the other hand, I secretly like really cartoony, colourful stuff too. I listened to mainly Nattefrost/Spyro the Dragon soundtracks today. Shhhh, don't tell anyone, I'll lose krieg-points

8.) I honestly don't fear -anything-. Except maybe losing my haaaands...D: Or fingers, or ARMS!! Oh my toast, that would SUCK!

9.) Errr...*scratches neck* reheheheeeeally running out of stuff to say...someday, I'd like to work in the video-games industry. It's all I remember wanting to do, before anything...waaaay back when I got a Master System for my third birthday, and even before that when I watched my Dad play the Atari.

10.) Shumanahoiiiii!!!

I tag

JESUS
SEPHIROTH
THE UNDERTAKER

...and anyone who wants to...

Hope everyone is ok!

Hey d00ds!! ^_^ Sorry I've not been too quick responding and things, busyness takes more than its fair share of time!! x_x

Just a quickie; The Furious Horde have got a bugger load of giggings coming up!! Here's the linkage: [link]

Aaaaaand...I got my hair done!! Wooooo! : [link]

Also, in a recent conversation regarding frostbitten grimness with ~Dr-Twistid : [link]

-Also- also, for the sudden explosion of uploadings; I've applied to Central Saint Martin's University; and need to build up my portfolio!! I hope I get in so badly, I was considering last year but took it off to goof around instead!!

Gallhammer are playing in London on the 12th, a day after we do!! We're thinking of playing the gig, crashing somewhere, then going to Gallhammer the next day bright and shiny! (Or, scummy and corpsepainty!)

Hope all has been well with everyone, gotta jet! :3

Greetiiiiings, everyone!

It's been quite a while, apologies! I've been quite busy recently so haven't managed to keep on top of all the new deviations, but even if I don't reply sometimes I'm looking and liking!!

I have a couple of works on the way; I've just been incredibly slow in progressing them! I also -finally- have my own site up! It's been fun and frustrating as I have very limited knowledge about computer shiz, but here it is!:

SUPER DUPER MEGA HYPER WHEEEEE: [link]

Hopefully I'll be able to improve it later on...and improve the actual work to put on there, lol! x_x Seeing all my work in one place has really made me anxious on needing to improve!!

The Furious Horde are to play at The Hermit (it's been a while!) March 7th, in Brentwood! :3 I may need your help in the -very- near future, so please keep those peepers peeled! ^_^ I'll upload a journal when and if the magical time does come!

Holy macaroni!!! Before I forget, our album "World Aghast" also made it to Rock Matrix's Top Albums of 2007!! Hopefully the next album will be even more metal and better!!!


And more loveliness!!
