Many have asked me one simple question, this being "As Hollow as what?"   As Hollow is a phrase that i find highly applicable to many circumstances and situations in not only my life and the life of my brothers and sisters, but in the lives of everyone around the world.  As Hollow refers to how people can make their lives hollow in one of two ways.  The first way is by filling a void in your life or your soul with material things and over-indulgence.  This is no way to live or attain enlightenment in any philosophy or spirituality.  The other meaning of As Hollow is a more important one in my eyes.  This refers to bringing people and passions into your life that you care for greatly at first and it benefits others greatly as well, but somewhere along the line apathy and indifference invade.  To stop caring for people you once cared for, or passions you once pursued with all the vigor of a blazing flame for the benefit of others and the world is a truly tragic.  Think about it, think about friends that have been lost and left in the wake of your apathy, loved ones and significant others that instead of loving you simply go through the motions with.  All of these can be applied to everyone. May you all be protected under the sign of the crescent horns.   

Stay Metal,
