Vostok's Interests

General	History, thanatology, antique/vintage menswear (particularly Edwardian), languages, politics, reading, the arts (fine art, music, literature, etc.), exploitation films, old video games, subcultures.
Music	My favourite artists are Shostakovich and Einstürzende Neubauten. Genres I like: Contemporary classical, Soviet avant-garde, musique concrète, 80s synthpop, 70s-80s industrial, neofolk, rock and roll, experimental, metal (black, death, thrash, heavy, folk), punk, eurodance, skiffle, shitty 00s pop, swing jazz, 90s rave, hip hop, post-war country...etc.
Movies
Television	I almost exclusively watch comedy shows. I love alternative comedy in particular. The Young Ones, Monty Python's Flying Circus, The Comic Strip Presents, Bottom, The New Statesman, Red Dwarf, The Thick of It, Blackadder, BBC Ghosts, etc. I also like Doctor Who (both classic and nu).
Books
Heroes	That guy who threw his shoes at George Bush. (and Jörg Buttgereit)

Vostok's Blurbs

About me:

In dieser oder der anderen Welt. Im Fleische oder im Licht.

18+ ONLY

Teddy boy and wizard in training. President of the JBigga Marxist Reading Society. I learn about coffins as a profession. I probably know more about funeral shrouds than anyone else you will ever meet. The guys who leaves crumbs in library books. Murray's pomade enthusiast. Unconventional, eccentric and outdated. Go ahead and haunt my inbox.

In terms of my interests, spot number one is probably granted to research/history. I can find almost anything engaging, but I do have my particular specialisms: Soviet arts and the everyday, local living history, death and undertaking, East Germany, 1980s nuclear Britain, home fronts in the Second World War, Alexander the Great, countercultures... and much more.

Hey, where does this go?

You should probably be warned that I'm into some weird shit. Therefore, only add me if you are an open-minded adult. I'm not interested in growing my friend count for the sake of it.

Check out my stamps!

undervenus	1741056478 your page looks SICK !! is there any cool read on thanatology you’d recommend ? Report Comment Thanks!
