In the Spring of 1993, a group of musicians from Cleveland, OH came together to form a side project called Mushroomhead. The intention was to create an eclectic blend of extreme music combined with a vaudevillian stage show that was bound to provoke a reaction, turn some heads and leave an impression. From their first concert together in the fall of that year, it was obvious that Mushroomhead would become far more than a side project. It was to become undisputedly, Cleveland's top drawing band.

Blending sonics and attitude borrowed from metal, techno/industrial and rap, they managed to attract a varied and demographically diverse crowd with their thundering tribal drums digging a heavy groove, with big, snarling guitars and keyboards filling in all the cracks with dramatic swells of sound. Taking a cacophony of music, vocals and samples, Mushroomhead shapes it into memorable tunes that are at once sharply satirical, broadly tongue in cheek, and infinitely different. Described by the Cleveland Plain Dealer as "sophisticated, juxtaposing dense, staccato, Ministry-inspired tempos with spacious melodic passages and dark lyrics that don't merely rely on repeated swear words," their music stands on its own, but to fully appreciate Mushroomhead, they have to be experienced live.

Combining outrageous costuming with the psychotic, exotic, neurotic and erotic, their shocking stage spectacle which always ends with a rave set, lives up to the music. Pushing the limits of rock theater to the max - their live show is truly an event and a multi-sensoral experience. What gives the band more substance and lasting appeal however, is their musical range. "Everybody fights for what they want in a song," says Skinny, Mushroomhead founder "and pretty much everyone gets their way - that's our strength. A song will start out sounding like metal until a cool piano part comes in or the turntables turn it into a rap song. We all bring our own tastes to the mix which gives the music diversity." 

Alternately, it is in the costumed chaos of their writhing live performances that the band members seem most alike and united. "When you step on stage in front of people, you know they're there for the release. Its what we are there for as well and we try to give our fans everything they came for and then some," adds frontman J Mann. It is these elements of risky and often risqué in both their music and performance that have given Mushroomhead , a name, a reputation and a massive, rock solid fanbase throughout the upper Midwest.

They have performed with Marilyn Manson, Type O Negative, Misfits, Anthrax, Down, Gwar, Genitorturers, and although they are nothing like them. They headlined the 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2000 Cleveland World Series of Metal, having national bands such as Drain STH, Crowbar, Overkill, Six Feet Under, Pissing Razors, Nile, and many others open up for them. They have grown into a regional phenomenon, easily and consistently selling out shows with up to 2500 capacity, a feat many national acts with major record-label backing and big publicity machines often can not duplicate.

XX, Mushroomhead's national debut on Universal Records, is an offering which combines the best of their independent releases in remixed form, as well as a brand new cover of Pink Floyd's Empty Spaces. 

Diverse yet cohesive selections from their self titled local debut (1995), 
Superbuick (1996), and M3 (1999), showcase the band's musical breadth as it slips from techno to the brink of industrial metal delivering songs, complete with verses, hooks and choruses. From the band's creative use of spoken word samples on "Episode 29" to the track "Bwomp," which throws it all down, careening from an industrial-meets-hardcore opening through rap, ambient, dub and techno sections in a breathtaking roller coaster ride, XX lets the music speak for itself.

Rocking the subconscious, they are a universe onto itself. No doubt, Mushroomhead didn't become Cleveland's biggest draw by worrying about offending anyone.

Just pretending.

Your life it ends with a crash its over now way to fast/You never knew that it was so short/Your digging deep inside yourself/You never knew your own wealth /Youre digging deep to find some pity/Fake all your promises/Forget what your conscience says/Just another number in a long line Of no one.  Just pretending that were ending/Hating what we are/So frustrating suffocating/How did we get this far/Your life beings way too fast/You can never change your past/Living life in your yesterday/Are we really that far that we can’t even see/Al the truth from the lies/In this man made disease/That is killing us and is filling us/Willing us to believe/Looking up and breaking down/I never know whats going down.

Looking deep inside myself
I've never known anything else.

Lies.

Lying is one of the most primitive human conditions, most loathsome and vile of our race. Just because you feel cheated by someone resulting in an unimaginable impotence and unrivaled hatred.

A lie can damage both the recipient and who is lying. The purpose of lying is to circumvent the reality of truth and the consequences of this.

Four types of lies:

1. The made ​​sporadically (everyone had lied ever) and spontaneous (Are white lies? That's the question we all ask, and who justify the lie itself with the phrase "the end justifies the means")

2. The evolution that begins in childhood and is reinforced by parents.

3. The product is said as symptomatic of a condition (for attention with the creation of a false character to shine and give us to improve our self-esteem, achievements and accomplishments inventing personal).

3. It is said as product symptomatic of a condition (for attention with the creation of a false character to shine and give us to improve our self-esteem, achievements and accomplishments inventing personal).

4. The carried out as repetitive behavior. This is the mythomania, in which lives for and to lies. Is complicated and that leads to compulsive lying.

Anyone who has ever been the victim of a lie, knows how embarrassing and painful it‘s to find someone (usually someone who appreciates) will lie on the pretext of not "hurt".

"I didn’t want to hurt you left" this is one of the most painful phrases that someone might say. It would make you happier than tells with the truth however cruel it may seem, at least that deep inhale and exhale peace by knowing that you are respected and loved by that person who always tells the truth and never lie to you even to "make you feel better”.

In my humble opinion, justify a lie is an abominable act and hurtful that ever replace a raw and brutal truth.

It’s 4:15 pm. I hope the confirmation of a lie as I write this bit of anger that I hope will help me to smile when I hear one lie after another.

In someone else's words: “Once more you tell those lies, to me
Why can't you just be straight up with honesty?
When you say those things in my ear, why do you always tell me what you wanna hear?”

"Exploiting Your Weakness"

The mind is a sponge absorbing your secrets the body's
at one exploiting your weakness a brand new kind of left behind
open up and close your mind catastrophe, evaporation growing
far across the shining masses back to your birthplace scenarios
worst case now rounding first base far from home moral is crumbling
these dice are tumbling words I'm mumbling stumbling on my own holocaust
in my head body warping on nonsense from the fountain feed down
on your knees for the best new line of promises words
I'm mumbling stumbling on my own perfect slowly comes
unglued a brand new kind of left behind drowning in the shallow
sunburnt beneath the gallows stumbling on my own holocaust
in my head life ... living isn't for everyone death ...
darker existence after this hell a brand new kind of left behind
kind of left behind...

Elizabeth Bathory

After such a long time without can write anything!, finally I´m here, so let´s post something interesting....
Let´s Talk about "The bloody Countess"....

Elizabeth was an hungarian aristocrat, who was born in 1650, in the cradle of one of the most importan Hungarian families.
At the age of eleven, she got engaged with Frenc Nadasdy, and she went to live with him at his castle in Csejthe.
Nadasdy better known as "the black knight" tought a lot of tortures to Elizabeth who learned them by practicing mutilating war prisioners.
Elizabeth loved to introduce needles under her maids's nails, She loved to cover with honney the body of her maids and let them naked the  whole night outside the castle.
When Nadasdy died in 1640, Elizabeth was free of ties, so She became a pervert, she had a lot of sexual male and female partners, She practiced satanic rites and was involved into a lot of pagan practices.

But the most interesting part of her life, began when she hit a maid and her blood fell over Elizabeth's hands, then she noticed that that part of skin was soft, so she killed almost 600 women in order to wash her skin with blood and stay young and beauty forever....

But the end of this twisted story is a disgrace for the countess, 'cause she was walled and her complices were punished with torture and death.
She died too many years after being walled...

That was the end of the bloody countess....

Brake your limits

Now, I´m going to talk about braking our limits. All the time, we limit ourselves. That´s because our education is like that, people tell us we can´t do everything. That´s a lie. We can do everything we want. All that we need are positive thoughts.

The first step is taking out the fear. Instinctively, the human has afraid about unknown things. After that, we have to eliminate our own limits. Forbidden to say: no, I won´t do this because... That´s wrong! If you have goals, you could do everything that is in your hands.

Think positive, without afraid you can do everything you desire.

:)

Accidentally I found this page: www.snotm.com, and I'm loving it!!! This is really stuff that no one tells you... but you will learn!!!!!!!!

kindergarten teacher!

I think I have a way with kids, specially with the toddlers.

Since I was little, specifically when I was six years old and my younger sister Sol was born, I realized that I'm very patient with kids. She was (and still) my little doll. Because there was a difficult time at my home, my mother had to work again, so I helped her to take care of Sol. Therefore, I fed her, dressed her, made almost all of her homework, and none of this things made me lose control or angry, it was completely the opposite.

Then, a year and a half after Sol, my brother Martin was born, and taking care of him was very easy, because I had all the previous experience.

Years later, when I was in high school, I had neighbors with kids, and all of their kids knocked on my mom's door because they wanted me to play with them and to tell them stories.
Nowadays, I still play and tell stories, but with the daughters and the sons of my friends.

I think my ideal job would be a kindergarten teacher.

Euthanasia

Most people do not know that euthanasia is not an option. Even in the Netherlands, where prosecution only involves a fine, it is not legal. In the U.S. state of Oregon, a law allowing doctors to prescribe lethal drugs to ally ill patients has been passed but not implemented because of legal challenges.

Dr. Philip Nitschke, working in the Australian outback, is the center of a medical, political and moral storm that from the Vatican to the Aborigines' camp fires. "Dr. Death," as he is sometimes called, has performed Euthanasia and has developed a "suicide pill" which is currently being tested by doctors in the V.S. and Canada.

His North American colleague, Dr. Jack Kevorkian, has also helped dozens of people kill themselves, but in both cases, the doctors are careful to "assist in suicide" and patients must take the terminal action themselves.

A courtroom trial was developed where Dr. Philip Nitschke is called to defend his position on Euthanasia. Choose a defense attorney, a district attorney and various witnesses. Should Dr. Nitschke be treated as a criminal, or as humanitarian kind doctor?

The Richest Woman in the World

At the end of the Nineteenth Century, the richest woman in the world was al so the most miserable. Hetty Green made her money by buying cheap and selling expensive on Wall Street, but she never spent a cent on herself.

She dressed and lived like a beggar. At the age of30, she inherited a million dollars which she had turned into 100 million by the time she was fifty.

She married Edward Green when she was 33, but made him sign a pre-nuptial agreement that he would never claim any of her money. She raised her 2 children in deplorable conditions, moving from one low-class hotel to another so as not to pay property taxes. To save on clothes and soap, she used the same black dress every day and only washed the part that got dirty: the hem.

When her son Ned hurt his knee, she refused to pay for medical services and two years later they had to amputate his leg.

Since she was too avaricious to pay rent for an office, she used the bank where she had her money deposited as her headquarters. If a bank official refused to lend her his desk, she threatened to withdraw her fortune from the bank.

When she got depressed, she would go into the bank vault and sit in the middle of the floor, surrounded by her money. When she died, her son Ned spent al1 her money extravagantly on parties, jewels, yachts and even a diamond-decorated urinal.

Ivan the Terrible

As a child, he threw dogs against the walls of the Kremlin. As an adult, he killed thousands of people and then prayed for them. Ivan the Terrible was the most infamous czar of Russia. He may have been so terrible because he had so much power. When he was three years old, his father died and he became czar, although his mother ruled until she died when he was seven. It seems that she was poisoned by the nobles.

Strangely, his first marriage was happy, but his wife Anastasia died after 13 years of marriage. Ivan believed that his advisors had poisoned her and he had everybody killed. Later he killed his own son. It seems to be the only occasion that he felt remorse and for months his howls of grief were heard coming from the royal palace. He and his people had been the victims of a personality distorted by fear, hate and unlimited power.

the tetragramatron

also knos as pentagram, penta alfa, five pointed star among many others, Eliphas Levi named it as the microcosmo's symbol that keeps away demons from our lifes

etymologically we can find various origins rott of its name acording to its five pointed star form

penta- means five of greek
alpha- first letter on alphabet
gramma- letter interpreted as grafic

the word tetragramaton also comes from the interlaced force of the 4 elements always presents on magic practices

tetra- means 4 on greek
gramma- means grafica
ton- on greek this termination is used to link two or more letters in the same word

on the world of magic as ours exist a universal duality, good and evil, white and black, on orient iexist ying and yang, therefore, this symbol, so alike cristian crucifix it can be used for the opposite of its creation, practitioners of dark arts use them on the rituals turning them upsidedown to bring evil energy...

It's raining!!!!!!!!

Things as they are... What the hell?? has not stop raining since around six in the morning, so what's going on, when the day could leave me out without a pair of socks in my bag jaja. But i'm pretty sure that i can live with rain but with sun all the day o come on, that's stressful.

I hope at least days like this decreace just somedays and just few hours.

Guys wath do you think about people who don"t care about the enviroment???

I think that people do not apreciate the things (in this case our enviroment) that they have.

This country is one of the most beautiful countries because of it"s biodiversity of animals and plants.

I think that we need more education about how to take care of the enviroment and we need to do all that thinks "cause most of people do not follow the rules

The creature half cat, half rhinoceros from outer space.

The creature half cat, half rhinoceros from outer space.

Chapter One.
All hope is gone.

The year is 1969 and the world is threatened by an interracial war began by government hippies of the United States who are willing to do whatever it takes to end a nation full of people who love the soap, I mean France ... who threatens healthy life on the Earth.
Amid this global tragedy, something is a less to change. Hippie defense division of the government is about to reveal a terrible secret, which they ended with the decade of blood and suffering.
Within this world of chaos and desolation, lives a little girl hippie, who is in a small town away from the pain of name "Hippietepec." What she ignores is that part of this war will not be ... yet.

Chapter Two.
The lair of the devil.

In the middle of the desert of Chihuahua, 10900 km from the capital, you can see a small hut in the middle of nowhere. However, this small point on the globe, hiding something so abominable that it's impossible to describe.

890 m depth in rocky soil and full of poisonous scorpions is the central base of operations for FBH and in it the largest ever genetic testing lab never conceived by humanity.

In the third underground level of the tower, the fifth hall, second door on the right, next to the cryogenic vessel creepy-looking, you can see a woman in white coats who writes numbers on a note. Her eyes seem to keep prying any details of a being that lies inert in this tube, be monstrous appearance, with sharp teeth, amorphous body, half cat, half rhinoceros, with a nasty nail polish and a hideous "Peter pan "booties ...

Dr. Paulina Rubialcaba whispers:
- At the end of your maturity, my dear daughter, you will be invincible, no one in this earthly world can stop your anger and your sense of fashion, ANYONE!
When suddenly someone enters the room, and with a deep thunder like "margarito" says:
- anyone! Are you sure that there is someone who can defeat ... our ... creaciónssss?
Hastily Dr. Paulina objects: - I am so sure this is the most indestructible being of the earth as I am that this war is not the welfare of mankind ... Mr. Sanders.

Sanders is the only child of a couple of geneticists tabasco lynx breeders who tried for years that his son follow in his footsteps in search of salvation of our planet, but apparently failed, and only became a ruthless gay pay, who profits from private parties for friends cool. And now working for the secret project of hippie division of the government called: Raised Unbreakable Beast with Illegal Ass or R.U.B.I.A.

Chapter Three.
Genesis.

The north wall clock marks 3:30 am, when a deafening noise wakes Dr. Paulina:
- What the hell is that?
The alarm of threat "Peter pan" booties sounds, and a pink light illuminates the hallways of the sector 8 13/16, some shouts heard in the distance and the walls were stained with verde cerca enamel to being macabre. Suddenly, Dr. Paulina note that the container is completely destroyed and the creature is, letting out laugh creepy shouts:

- "You are free at last, to end this dirty humanity that pollutes our soil with his outrageous fashion sense and her firm PERFECT butt JA, JA, JA, JA" ...
That's when the pink phone office ring Sanders for the first time
- Alo, if speech ...
- WHAT? It escaped. That's impossible I’m going to go there.
Mr. Sanders hastily runs to his luxury pink car with yellow flowers on the doors, take the keys from his pocket and quickly turned the engine. While advancing on Highway 34 in the middle of a dense fog created by the thawing of frozen mountain think about how to explain to Mr. Zero the stripper wearing a firefighter cannot attend your private party.
Suddenly, Sanders press the brake to the bottom and turn the steering wheel to avoid hitting the huge rhinoceros butt is in front of him.
The car turns and ends up stuck in a deep trench created by the heel of the creature half cat, half rhinoceros from outer space.
While Sanders regains consciousness after the altercation with that infernal wall of “cellulitis”, realizes that the creature is only half cat creature, half rhinoceros from outer space.
And for the first time in his life, asks God for mercy for his twelve kittens and the gardener with broad shoulders of his neighbor:
- That the carpenter's nails to save us!

Chapter Four.
The birth of the savior.
