Thank you and enjoy!
















Music

Suicide City - official site of the band Suicide City! You may not have heard of this punk band from New York but if you like music that intense, exhilerating, powerful, aggressive, and extremely addictive, then you need to check them out! If you think you can handle it!! Painted Horse, Undone, and Diemonds are my personal favs!!

As Summer Dies - official site of the band As Summer Dies! You may not have heard of these guys (and girl!) either unless you're in the Buffalo area but trust me when I tell you they are bad ass! Or don't trust me...check them out for yourself! My favorite songs are Zombies Are Scumbags, Sincerely, and My Last Call.

*STRATA - official site of the band STRATA! You may not have heard of these guys yet eith but believe me, you will! Their intensity and musical talents will not go unnoticed for long! I saw them open for Chevelle and was totally blown away. So if you're tired of listening to the same old same old, go check out Strata! I'm sure you will be as instantly addicted as I was! My recomendations are Piece by Piece, Just Like Silk, and Never There!

Echovalve - official site of the band Echovalve! I saw these guys open for Dark New Day and they were amazing. Great vocals, kickin music....they rock! Not only were they phenomenal onstage but they were some of the nicest guys I have ever met. So need something new to listen to? Check them out!!! Letter, Dirty Little Secret, and Losing Taste are my favs!!

Deadstar Assembly - official site of the band Deadstar Assembly! Dark industrial trance music at its best! Check out their cover of the 80's tune, Send Me An Angel!

The BirthdayMassacre - official site of the band The Birthday Massacre! Haunting vocals, creepy industrial trance music, and psychotic lyrics make them one of my favorite bands! Check them out!!! I recommend your first taste to be Happy Birthday or Blue!

30 Seconds To Mars - official site of the band 30 Seconds to Mars! Yes, this is another band you may not have heard of yet and if that's the case, you are truly missing out so go check them out! But prepare to be mesmerized!

Kill Hannah - official site of the band Kill Hannah! If you can listen to "Lips Like Morphine" without becoming addicted, then I'm going to assume you are deaf! Seriously, check them out....very sexy vocals!!!

My Chemical Romance - official site of the band My Chemical Romance! Once upon a time, no one ever heard of these 5 guys from NJ and now of course, everyone knows them! But hey, they are one of my favorites so they deserve a link! If by some miracle you have never heard of them. go check them out! They are a perfect blend of punk, pop, emo, and rock!

Dark New Day - official site of the band Dark New Day! I saw these guys open for Seether and fell in love. Check them out for yourself and see what you're missing!!!

Second Shifters - this is the best internet radio station I have ever heard! They play such a variety I can't even classify the music but I guess if I had to I would say its sort of a goth rock station but its hardly limited to just that! They play everything from Manson to NIN to Switchblade Symphony to Cruxshadows and everything in between!! I listen to it all the time and never hear the same songs. And what's almost unbelievable is its free! You can download their player which plays in the background (but still identifies the song if you point at it in the system tray) and never skips like most internet radio does! They even have Open Mic Night on Fridays where they will air your pre-recorded poetry. Go check out this site now!!

Arsi's Cradle of Filth Dungeon - this is a must see for any Cradle of Filth fan!!

As if the names of the dishes (and the pictures) aren't funny enough, some of Wendy's comments will have you rolling on the floor!
