Hello fellow Brethren and sisters of metalm/. Well I guess I should start by introducing myself I am Colin Downer known to some as Lord Nocturnus Apocalypse. I have been playing Bass for about 11 years and singing for about 7 well I wouldn't call it singing exactly but you get the idea. I can sing though for real.
I'm going to start by telling you how I first came into Metal; It actually started when I was around 6 years old the first ever metal song I remember hearing was Cemetary Gates by
Pantera. The weirdest part about that whole thing was keep in mind it was my first time hearing a metal song and I looked over at my friend and said this is the song Cemetary Gates by
Pantera. I
saw his jaw drop. my friend couldn't believe it that me having never heard this stuff before had picked out the band and song title without any knowledge of who the band was or what the song was. That got me hooked. From then on he started to get me into bands like
Metallica,
Megadeth and Guns N Roses. To this day I thank my friend for helping me to discover that I was born METAL!!!!
My best experience in Metal?
When I got to meet the almighty
Cannibal Corpse I have been a huge fan of them since their 1996 release Vile which was actually the first death metal album I bought. I have seen Cannibal two times first on Metalblade 25th Anniversary Tour with Black Dahlia Murder, The Red Chord ,
Goatwhore, and The Absence. And the second time I
saw them was at
Mayhem Fest 2009 on the Hot Topic Stage. I got to meet the entire band I couldn't believe it those guys are my fucking heroes hands down.
What do I want to do in regard to Metal?
I have played in numerous bands over the years. My ultimate goal is to find one that suits me I want to play Black Metal but with a Death Metal to it.
Ultimately I want to start my own record label for bands that don't necessarily have the
means to an end. What I mean by that is I want to be the guy that goes to states like Montana,Idaho,Nebraska,North and South Dakota, Delaware, Maine etc and also to all the obscure countries to find the bands that well deserve their chance to shine. I would also like to eventually write reviews and conduct interviews with bands for this website as I have a very big appreciation for Metal; moreso than most that I know.
