about

SeeingtheDark.com is a personal music blog sharing heavy rock and metal along with assorted quips. Started in 2007, it has evolved from a song-a-day blog to something more narcisstic and nebulous. Regardless of what I say, I hope you follow the links, listen to the music, and always make up your own mind.

You can send emails to cyberspaceship (at) gmail (dot) com. I'm not a fan of label spam nor do I write professional reviews, so please keep that in mind before sending me anything.
