Hi. I'm 23 y.o. guy from Lithuania (i bet most of you'll need to check the map to see what it is). About my hobbies... I'm into philosophy, local history, could call myself a movie snob - like to watch everything from the old silent black and white movies up to the newest flicks. And, of course, love metal. Listen to most of the sub-genres. Heavy (Iron Maiden, Dio, Judas Priest, newer Accept), Thrash (Slayer, Kreator, Overkill, Nuclear Assault), Death (Immolation, Bloodbath, Obituary, Morbid Angel), Melodic Death (Kalmah, Be'Lakor, Ensiferum), Doom (Candlemass, Gates of Slumber, Warning), Folk (Eluveitie, Korpiklaani, Metsatoll)... Could go on and on.
