I'm a musician and writer from the New England area. You can read my metal music reviews at my personal site or over on the Metal Archives, but my tastes run far and wide through many genres.

Also, for anyone seeking more hierarchical, year-by-year lists which feature an actual order of preference, I updated the old posts I had made over at my site with some foot notes by year, and there are also a few 'scene' lists: http://autothrall.blogspot.com/search/label/autothrall
