The supporting and water-conducting tissue of vascular plants, consisting primarily of tracheids and vessels; woody tissue.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

An obsessive, collects CDs/DVDs/LPs etc. Listens to artists ranging from Porcupine Tree to Metallica, Bjork to Carcass and Machinefabriek to Depeche Mode.

See his (almost) entire music collection here:

(Non-metal affilated is on the first page, to view metal albums then go to the very bottom of the page and click "View Xylem1's metal collection".)

Talkative (very much so), especially on the subjects of music and film, can rant on about a single album for hours, sleep inducing is an accurate description.
Enjoys photo editing, doesn't create own photos but has unique styles of manipulation and has created many "Remixes" or some might say "Upgrades" of other people's work, as well as creating original digital art:

Plays the guitar, has been practicing for over a year on Brother's semi-acoustic. Writes a variety of music for a number of projects, ranging from:

Progressive Rock/Ambient/Extreme. (With main band, Xylem.)
Black Metal/Death Metal/Grindcore/Doom/Gothic Metal. (With darker band, Nosgoth.)
Drone/Noise/Avant-Garde. (With side project, Security Plan.)
Comedy Rock/Black Metal/Gothic Metal/Prog Rock. (With stupid project, TWJ.)
Ambient/Fantasy/Soundscapes/Minimalist. (With ambient project, Eve Abode.)

Likes slightly odd people with good music tastes and a great fan of GOOD films.

A reliable, talkative and friendly chap, he will be a good addition to your friends list.

I don't really have a favorite band, but I just like the genre. Like I said, I'm not picky about music. I'll pretty much listen to anything. ^_^

I love gothic metal. I really am not picky about my music, tho. I'll pretty much listen to anything with a good beat. Techno, metal, classical, and on occasion, you might catch me listining to Elvis. But, you have to be lucky to. ^_^ One of my current favorite bands is "I am Ghost". My roommate introduced me to it. They had this really good violinist, but she quit, and now the only good stuff is the older stuff. sad

I'm trying to. But, I don't have the time anymore like I did when I was still in High school. I'm a college student now, and all I have time for is work and school and sleep, and the ocasional checking of my Gaia account. xp
