My interests kept on changing at different phases of my life, As a kid i wanted to be a scientist, then as i grew up i wanted to be vet, an archaeologist, a bill gates (software programmer not "the richest man on the earth") ,then i even wanted to start a metal band and become the lead guitarist, till date i never settled down for a particular interest. But one interest that always lives with me is Music; there were different music all through my life. The early music influence was from my grandfather who used to wake up the house at 5 am with carnatic music on tape-recorder, every time any song played on the Television he used to relate it with some carnatic ragas, slowly I developed a little interest in carnatic music but could never connect with it, then the A.R.Rahman craze in the late 90s, then I drifted to few English songs like Jon Bon Jovi, Backstreet boys, Westside, The five, in early millennium. By then a few English songs had become a part of my music interest, later for a few years i got virtually disconnected from music.
Then as I stepped into my college life, Music returned. At the time there were Ushers and Akons and 50 cents and other hip-hop lunatics, i didn't like this kind of music, for me it was no music it was all insane, every line had a "f" word and people loved it. For others it was R.A.P but for me it was bull-shit. Like the songs the names of these artists was weird 50 cent, 2-Low, Jay-Z, 9th wonder.
Rock music entered my life, I had earlier listened to Bon Jovi’s “It’s my life” and “Everyday” but I had very little knowledge on the music genres then. The drums, the guitar riffs, the harsh vocals and the tempo made me feel I was part of the music. I then started listening to
Finally I found the music I could get connected to, Metal; this was the kind of music I was always craving for. It was one step more than Rock in terms of everything. The vocals were harsher and every kind of guitars was used. I loved all the metal genres, Heavy, Thrash, Death and every band from Led Zeppelin to Korn and from Metallica to S.O.D. .
