Music

I listen to 80’s Heavy metal, thrash and classic rock. I started off listening to Iron Maiden and other staple bands who have still been my favorites till date. While I’m not too big into Death Metal, I love Amon Amarth’s music.

I play the bass, and off late muck around with a regular guitar quite a bit, and I also try my hand at writing my own riffs and music. I own a 4-string warwick style bass guitar, with custom active pickups and fancy nickel wound strings. I also use a Zoom b2.1u bass pedal, a Marshall MB-30 amplifier, and a cheap Fender strat knockoff.

My musical stats are tracked to perfection at last.fm, you can see my profile page here.
