I'm Blake (my real name is Mark, but call me Blake). Put simply, I'm not your average person. I like metal and I like the gothic culture; this isn't something, however, that makes me unique. I think what's more interesting to people is what really makes a person different and worth knowing. That being said, there is only so much you can say about yourself on a web page, so please don't try and make an asessment of who I really am based only on what you read here.
I drink socially, I don't do drugs, and I don't buy into trends and labels. I do wear makeup, but not to fit into any culture or scene, I think that's just pathetic. I just wear what I wear and do what I do because it makes me happy. I don't like to be judged, and I won't judge you. I'm a LaVeyan Satanist - not a devil worshipper - don't come to me asking hundreds of questions about my religion. You were given a brain, use it. Do some research and pursue this philosophy yourself if you're so interested. I'm here to find friendship, not explain myself to people over and over again.
I think I'm a pretty nice guy, unless you fuck me over. I'm artistic - I write poetry, I'm working on a novel, and I draw. I'm also learning to play keyboard and am in the process of forming my own metal band. Additionally, I maintain a small social networking site for metalheads called
Metal-Com.
If you want to message me, comment me, or rate me, by all means feel free to do so, I'm always up for meeting new people.
Favorite Music:
I have this great interest in music, metal in particular, although other genres appeal to me as well. I don't listen to a band because it is "trendy" or "popular", I listen to a band because I truly enjoy hearing their sound or because I embrace the artistic element of their music.
Below is a list of some of my favorite bands...I couldn't possibly
list them all, but this should paint a picture of just what I'm into musically...

Friends:
I felt the need to add this section to my profile because I have many friends, and they really make me who I am. They are really my family and great friendship is something you should never throw away. Click on the names of the friends listed below and that will take you to their respective myspace profiles.
Tom McGuire
One of my best friends in West Milford, I've known the guy for nearly 3 years now, and he's an intelligent person who would do anything for anyone. Fucking awesome kid.
Bill McGuire
Tom's twin brother, he's also awesome and jjust as artistic as me. He's also a video game freak, something I'm not. :P Still, we get along like brothers.
Steven Mason
Alright, he's my friend since childhood and the most random, most insane kid you will ever meet, hands down. He lives in my hometown (Garfield, NJ) and I've known him for 8 years now.
Alexander Dzievva
My other brother from Garfield, I've known him for almost as long as Steven, he's my fellow metalhead.
Neko
Also known by some as Heather. :P She's an amazing person, also very random. What sucks is that she currently lives in Minnesota.
AZ Wallbrown
The bassist for the metal band I'm forming, he's an artist and a musician just like me, and one of my best bros in West Milford. Like me, he lives and breathes metal. Can't go wrong. XD
