Adept in the ancient, Well-versed in the arcane

hello!
for all who do not know me, I'm a Christian woman who happens to love metal, hence the name. Black metal of pretty much any kind is by far my favorite, though I also have a huge thing for stoner/sludge, along with a bit of folk and a bit of death when I'm in the mood for it. I am a non-practicing dental hygienist, as I have discovered that I'd rather do something else with my life. I am going back to school to purse a degree in fine arts, as art is one of my passions in life. I also love history, science, and the learning of all things. I love to read, especially classic literature and fantasy (LOTR and WoT, thus far), along with any non-fiction I can get my hands on. Outside of the above, you'll also run into a lot of sci-fi, as I am a huge Star Trek fan (TNG!) and a Star Wars fan too.

Basically anything I like will go on this blog

Is it strange…

that the more DEPRESSING the band sounds, the more I like them, and the more they make me happy?

O.o

I’ve had this discussion with a friend before, and he feels the same way…so I know I’m not the only one..but still, it’s a strange paradox, depressive black metal actually makes me feel happy.
