At first, she experimented with the directions punk, space rock and psychedelic rock.
The other side disputed by Raging Speedhorn: Raging Speedhorn were forged in 1998, in the steel town of Corby, Northamptonshire. The band brought together members of Box and Soulcellar. The music they wrote was influenced by Iron Monkey, Black Sabbath and bands that ranged from the heavy rock of the 70s through to the metal, punk and grunge scenes of the 90s. Two original bands resulted in two vocalists, and the growling bass-notes of John Loughlin contrasted with the angry lyrical style of Frank Regan. The band also included Gareth Smith and Tony Loughlin on guitars, Darren Smith on bass and Gordon Morison on pounding drums.

When my old buddy Kenn Jensen asked me if I wanted to contribute to the new site he had created, then called powermetal.dk, I didn't hesitate. My love for metal music was and is great. I wrote my first review during the summer of 2004 (Moonspell's 'Antidote' album). In 2015, I took over the editor-in-chief role.
