    Yo

    This site seems fairly active when it comes to writing, so I decided to join. My screen name is Absentia; I really hope you could figure that one out on your own. On to the more interesting things-

    My favorite bands are Pain of Salvation, The Mars Volta, Tool, Porcupine Tree, Devin Townsend, Riverside, The Flower Kings, Wastefall, Anglagard, Dream Theater, King Crimson, Opeth, Marillion, Sieges Even, Anathema, Psychotic Waltz, Van Der Graaf Generator Santana, Rush, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Between the Buried and Me, Ulver, Sting, Led Zeppelin, Rush, Mastodon, Aerosmith, Queensryche, Dave Matthews Band, Zero Hour, The Beatles, Frank Zappa, Blackfield, David Gilmour, Roger Waters, A Perfect Circle, Peter Gabriel, Savatage, Iron Maiden, Steely Dan, Primus, Iced Earth, Genesis, Demians, and I'm probably forgetting some.

    I also enjoy singing. I've been teaching myself for almost a year now.

    As for writing I hope to expand what I can do with it. That's the reason I came here: to improve. Hopefully I can have fun doing it as well. I should have some work of mine posted soon, most of which is poetry.

    P.S. Radiohead is extremely overrated.

    Is that top 50 or what? And you're forgetting some? I probably just find that weird since the number of bands that I have more than five songs of aren't even in the double digits.

    Anyways, welcome to the forums, Absentia.

    Haha. Those are only my favorite bands. There are many, many more I enjoy listening to. And thank you for the welcome.

    Wow, we have two favourite bands in common, at least: Dream Theater and the Beatles. I used to like Iced Earth before Barlow quit and Tim Owens replaced him. Very tragic.

    But, in any event, welcome to the boards. And check out Therion and In Flames if you haven't.
    Remember why you like to read, and inundate your writing with your love of story. No great writer ever found reading a chore.

    I have good news for you then: Matt Barlow is back with Iced Earth. Check the official site; he's doing vocals for "Something Wicked, Part II"
