Our guest today comes from Czech Republic. Tom is bass player of band SKYWALKER. The band describes themselves as Modern Rock outlet combining heavy riffs, crushing breakdowns, and sweet melodies with honest and personal lyricism. End of the 2021 the band will go Europe “Late Eternity” tour and special guest will be GHOST IRIS. But now we will talk about our main topic -amazing tattoos.

Reflections of Darkness [RoD]: When did you get your first tattoo and what was it? Did it take much time until you decided to get it done?
Tom: When I was 18 and the very first one was a star with a spiderweb around on my elbow.

Tom Noir is vocalist and bassist of the Goth Rock-Doom band OCTOBER NOIR from Pensacola, Florida and burdened with heavy influence from TYPE O NEGATIVE. In the following interview, he will tell us more about his tattoos.

Reflections of Darkness [RoD]: When did you get your first tattoo and what was it? Did it take you much time until you decided to get it done?
Tom:I was 34 when I finally decided to sit in the chair. I remember being 19 and stepping into a shop to have Michaelangelo’s Green Man inked. The image I brought was apparently too small to work off of, so the lady says, “but we have one on the wall just like it!” I entertained her suggestion but it looked like a child’s drawing. I immediately walked out of there and never returned.

Today, our guest is Jon Siren, drummer of the decadent rock galaxy called IAMX. In addition to IAMX, Jon plays parallel in such bands as EARLY MAN and MANKIND IS OBSOLETE (where he is also a songwriter). He also gives drum lessons and is the author of the book ‘The Touring Vegan’. He also has incredibly cool tattoos, which we will be happy to tell you about!

Reflections of Darkness [RoD]: When did you get your first tattoo and what was it? Did it take much time until you decided to get it done?
Jon: My first tattoo was of “Gaius Helen Mohiam” a Bene Gesserit Reverend Mother as part of a ‘Dune’ sleeve. It took me a while to figure out what I wanted to have on my arm and to find an artist, Clint Carney (http://clintcarney.com), who could both conceptualize the image based off the book character and to also execute it.

The Rhythmic Noise scene in 2019 pleased its fans with excellent works in classical sound as well as unique material that differs from the rest. Young projects make music similar to the best works of their more distinguished colleagues and old respected artists create new opuses, experimenting with sound and other electronic genres. There is a tendency of merging techno scene with rhythmic noise also this year. It will be clear with time if it’s good or bad. In the meantime, we will enjoy excellent furious thrillers and atmospheric experiments.

I am always happy when we have guests in our project from far away, now this is one of this cases. Tomy Robert comes from Charlesbourg, Quebec, Canada. He is playing guitar in the Metalcore band BEHIND THE REVOLVER and the Death Black Metal band OBSERVANTS. The last release of the first band is already a few years behind: ‘As We Blossom And Fade Away’ was released on 1st December 2017. OBSERVANTS had their last release ‘Supreme Being’ on 2nd August 2019. But now I want to speak about tattoos, because I not often see such amazing coloured tattoos as Tomy has them and I want to share this with you.
