I idolised Tom Verlaine, I was going to call my band The Verlaines, but I later found that this name was already taken by a band who would go on to become one of my favourites, leading to my discovery of the Flying Nun scene. I discovered black metal when I was doing research for a speech I was doing for my English class, on musicians dying young. I found Dead and Euronymous on a Wikipedia list.
