Don't have my old one, so time to cut and paste somebody's and replace their answers. . .
Party Name and Nation: RFP-KEG (aka (Rights and Freedom Party or Revolutionary Freedom Party)-Kalistani Emergency Government
Real Name: Rene (yes, another guy with a female-sounding French name. In this case Cajun French/New Orleans French Creole)
Age: Not Quite Old Enough to Know Better
General Location: Austin, Texas, USA, exiled from New Orleans, Louisiana, USA by Katrina and right wingers letting my city rot in the sun.
General Political Affiliation: Leftist libertarian, which some say doesn't exist. Those to my right would probably consider me a socialist libertarian. On the compass: Economic: Left -5.12 / Libertarian -5.79
General Religious Affiliation: Quantum Pagan / Neo-Pagan / Wiccan / Witch take yer pick
Professional Goal/Current Occupation: Assistant supervisor in an office which determines eligibility for children's medicaid (former, cooler ones included: pro music critic, bartender, courier, and inventory manager for a porn and sex toys shop.) / Professional goal would be to own a bar or a media company (music/video/games/art/publishing)
Relationship status: Engaged and polyamorous
Favorite genre of music: Metal, grunge, psychedelic, and goth, mostly, especially combos of those. Special focus on sludge, sludgecore, stoner rock, gothic metal, thrash, riot grrrl music, southern sludgecore, doom metal, noise rock, noise metal, hippie biker punk, gothic punk, etc. Three bands I listen to the most would the The Melvins (experimental grunge metal and sludge metal), Jack off Jill (metallic gothic grunge/riot grrrl), and Stiffs Inc. (gothic punk): Also lots of Nirvana, L7 (the middle albums, when they didn't suck), Alice in Chains, TAD, Babes in Toyland, Ruby, EYEHATEGOD, Placebo, Savatage (before they split into Trans-Siberian Orchestra and. . .Trans-Siberian Orchestra. . .wtf? a prog-metal band becomes two of the same novelty band? How does that work?) Motorhead, Skew Siskin, Mudhoney, the Beatles, Depeche Mode, Sonic Youth, Big Business, Khanate, Thulsa Doom, The Newlydeads, Corrosion of Conformity, High on Fire, the Toadies, Screaming Trees, etc.
Basically, just give me loud noise and someone screaming about how angry/sad/damaged they are, and I'm a happy camper.
My own band is/was sort of gothic psychedelic grunge metal. . . basically a lot like the Melvins meets Jack off Jill meets TAD. . .only pretentious.
Some death metal, but only Satyricon in black metal. . .the rest is "the Chipmunks do Death Metal, and Their Bassist Leaves in Disgust." Although I have thought about combining black metal, death metal, and zydeco. . .Cajun Blackened Death Metal!!!

NationStates Nation Name: Lavek, New Lavek, and New Karriisstan (NS2), which has probably disappeared by now.
Other information: lead vocals, baritone guitar, and bass, chaotic good with chaotic neutral tendencies, autobot, Whodat. I once hosted an annual poetry reading the Thursday before Christmas called "A Very Gothic Christmas." At one point, we decided to do a second one called "A Very Gothic Easter."
