Why he might be annoying:

    He really enjoys drinking.
    In Cradle of Filth's liner notes, he's referred to as 'Martin Foul.'
    He swears profusely, showing an affinity for the word 'cunt.'
    He is Cradle of Filth's third keyboardist.
    He looks like a girl.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He started playing the violin and piano at age seven, and then picked up guitar a few years later to 'rock out a little more,' as he put it.
    He joined the group My Dying Bride when he was 18 and stayed for seven years. A few of his favorite directors include Paul Verhoeven, Kevin Smith, Terry Gilliam and Ridley Scott.
    On Cradle of Filth's latest album, 'Damnation and a Day,' he provided additional guitar since Gian Piras had since left the band.
    He says one of his favorite things is spending time with his wife.
    His wedding pictures are available on Cradle of Filth's official web site.
