Ok where to begin. I live in a small city of Brantford in Ontario Canada, Living on my own can be quite boring but i pretty much party twice a week hanging out wth firend. I spend most of my time on my computer if its either playing World of Warcraft or searching the net. I cannot get enough of music it seems that every day i find a new Heavy/Death metal band t olistn to. My Favorite bands are as follows Nile, Cradle of Filth, Slayer, Vader, Dethklok, Enslaved, Arch Enemy, Children of Bodom, Lamb of God, Rob Zombie, Blutengel (Blood Angel; German) Cannibal Corpse,Ensiferum. Sure i have lots more but cant post them all.
I growing up i was always coondsidered the outcast in my group of friends because even though we had a good time together i would always push things to far. Rebel without a cause.
My favorite religous views are thet of the Hermetic, or as some say the Occult. Aleister Crowley is probley the most inresting person i have ever heard of. I posses some of his works and have practiced his magickal formula.
I also love writing, poetry short stories anything that can be told darkly. Kinda like having a sepreate life or personality. Darknees is in us all so why not express it.
Currently i am unemployed but am studing for my CompTIA A+ Cetification to become a computer tech.
I have a sweet looking black trench coat with several patches sowed on to it which look really cool. Slipknot and Cradle Of Filth.

Ah, someone who likes Blutengel! That's good to hear. Have you listened to either Terminal Choice or Tristesse de la Lune? These are both bands related to Blutengel.

Aliester Crowley? How did his formula work out for you? Do you feel empowered? Is life better for you now? I was to understand that a lot of the things he did was just for shock. Much like Manson. But sometimes, those kinds of things have to be done.
Welcome.

Things we share in common:
-Some of our musical tastes
-Aleister Crowley and Magick (though I don't follow his formula)
-writing, poetry short stories
-We both own black trenches. Something tells me however that's not so uncommon here. I wanna a photo of yours!
I just got here too but, welcome!

Well the first day I did the LBRP i felt silly and stopped buit then i felt something in the back of my head, kinda like a voice, telling me that this was not soemthing to give up on. Unfortunately I havent praticed his teachings in like a year but when you do you can fell something change wether it be energy or self empowerment, ect, whe nyou do practice it.
If you want to check it out there is many of sites that post the ritual.

Yeeeaaahh...though they swing way to the EBM side of things. I believe they call that sort of think "Electro-Gotik" in Germany.
I'm making a concerted effort here not to be an asshole and express my extreme distaste for most metal, but you really should look up some actual Goth Rock/Deathrock bands and then decided whether or not you really want to associate yourself with the scene.

True metal is really that much goth but there principles are almost the same so i look more into the goth scene by listening to some Goth Rock/Deathrock. So could you list some bands for me.

What i meant was that metal may or may not represent the goth community but its music still is dark and poetic. Something that deep down inside moves us.
Also i was just listening to Terminal Choice- Stay With Me, and i got to say its pretty good.
Hi Red thanks for the reply.

The only thing it taught me was to respect free will at the upmost degree. This is why I've ethically become an anarchist. Do as thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.
As far as the magick part, I haven't done as much anymore because I've technically become agnostic, which to me, strikes me as a bit more congruent in the whole aspect of free will and discovering what my true will is.
