Full of hate and disdain for everyone else, 'druid' finds it very hard to actually let any of this out except to close friends. His music allows him the luxury of saying what he is thinking without the boundaries of morally-obliged everyday conversation. That is to say, he is one hell of a repressed individual.

'druid' likes to refer to this artist as "external hate expression". A simpler, though longer, way of putting it would be that all the negative emotions are directed outwards to other things, other people, instead of inside himself. It could be said that he classifies himself as right and anything that goes against his values wrong.

In fact, were it not for his industrial/electronic project 'Taore' which deals more with internal conflicts, one might consider 'druid' a little conceited.

He started writing rap lyrics and music years ago in 2000, however he has only just recently (in 2003) got his act together and started completing tracks. His one primary influence for (as far as other artists go) rap/hiphop has been Eminem. All other influence is just from intense emotional reaction to anything around him.
Why this name?
'druid' was chosen by combining the initials of two aliases of mine. I also chose it because it is short.
Do you play live?
I don't perform live, I've never been asked and I'm too unknown.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The music industry itself? It allows people to try before they buy, albeit people abuse it by trying and never buying.

For people like me who aren't really a part of the music industry? It allows us to become known, to get our music heard.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Probably.
Band History:
My history is not really important nor interesting. Anything of interest is/will be mentioned in my lyrics.
Your influences?
Eminem influenced me quite a bit for a while, though now I just make what I want. Most influence is from society which is why I'm so full of hatred and loathe.

Deal with it.
Favorite spot?
Anywhere, on the condition that I'm dead.
Equipment used:
I use my computer, I usually record vocals in a recording room/studio.
Anything else...?
