DEVACRON: I love American East Coast metal

I love American East Coast metal

New York City and New Jersey. Those two are two of the places, but almost the same one, around the world that some of my absolute favorite bands hail from. I generally prefer the NY and east coast bands before the ones from the west coast. I like the generally darker and heavier sound the e.c. bands have. I love Type O Negative, Life of Agony, Danzig, Overkill, Anthrax, Spread Eagle (my favorite sleaze band btw), Circus of Power, Warrior Soul, amongst others.

I also wanna say R.I.P. Peter Steele. You're sorely missed by us all.

Type O Negative - World Coming Down (Live)

Spread Eagle - Switchblade Serenade

Danzig - How The Gods Kill

Circus of Power - Call of the Wild

About this blog:

Welcome to Devacron, estimated 2011.

This is my place where I occassionally aggrevate and write about stuff I like, mostly about music or video games. I am a huge fan of metal music (primarily) and totally non-elitist, i.e. an open-minded metal music listener. I also particularly like electronic/synth/ambient music as well as some other styles.

I have a strange obsession with the 1980's and that's something I've had since I was a kid. Born in 1990, I perfectly missed out on the entire decade. As a kid I simply enjoyed lots of 80's movies and the soundtracks. Think Robocop, Terminator and cheesy 80's music as well as rock anthems. I loved it!

In 2002 I got interested in music and 80's heavy metal was my one great love from the get-go. I grew up with very young parents, both of whom were teenage metalheads in the 80's. Safe to say, they nutured me with the greatest kind of music ever made.

Other interests range from movies to video games to motorcycles. I like a lot of sci-fi movies but also fantasy. Whatever is like an adventure movie, I suppose. I've also been a gamer all my life, starting off on Sega Megadrive and NES as a small kid. These days I rock the PS4 and PC gaming.

I'm also a musician. I was in a (mixed) metal band called Devastation (Sweden) for ten years, playing drums and doing backing vocals (mostly death metal growling). The band renamed itself Into The Pentagram in 2014 and became more of a pure death/black metal band.
