We are influenced by life and love. By religion and politics. By pain and suffering and misery. By anxiety, anger, and rage. By humble people and greedy people. We do it for the rush and for the peace and for the enjoyment. Bands we like: Dave Matthews, Metallica, Radiohead, John Mayer, Dashboard Confessional, Tool, Deftones, Thrice, STP, Velvet Revolver, Stereophonics.
