...from a whisper to a SCREAM is currently on hiatus. You can follow Zja Noir on Instagram for photos of the gigs she attends.
The Whys
I live and breathe music. It is very rare for me not to be listening to something... and that is normally when I am with a friend and it's impolite for me to keep my earphones in ;-p
My music tastes tend to run towards metal (I seem to gravitate towards Death Metal and Melodic Death Metal but i love all subgenres..) and industrial, but my tastes are quite ecelectic, so you will see some indie, folk, post-rock, punk, and whatthefuck featured in this blog. If you have any reccomendations for me, can you please make them here?
I tend to share links, thoughts, videos and lyrics at my various blogs, and decided instead to share them here.... While I may still post them at other blogs, I will be posting them here mostly. I will post any music related discussions here and will also have a current playlist linked.

THE NAME
"From A Whisper To A Scream" is a novel written by Charles de Lint (published as Samuel M Key, because it was to scary & violent for some of his fans). I think it really encapsulates my taste in music. It starts soft, maybe some folk music, gets a bit louder, throw in some rock and indie, and suddenly its a scream - death metal, hardcore, industrial, thrash etc. It also describes the sounds you get out of a guitar... lightly strumming acousitic strings gives you a very soft whispery sounds, shredding an electric gives you screams. Quite apt, dont you think? \m/. (^_^) .\m/

About Me
- Zja Noir
- I survive on a diet of books and cds. I snack on dvds and gigabytes. Into alternate cultures, geek culture, environmentalism, art, archaeology, cultural heritage, and social awareness.
