Rock Writer
Greg's career as a rock writer started in 1987 when he published an underground fanzine called A Piss in the Ocean, writing most of the material himself.
Taken from his Myspace page:
"I've been a rock writer since 1987 and have been widely published including appearances in Metal Hammer, Kerrang!, Terrorizer, Decibel, Record Collector, Music Collector, metal-is.com, various Guinness guides and other encyclopaedias and reference works, plus sleeve notes for bands such as Cradle Of Filth and Venom. I actually almost completed my book on Venom - 'Sons Of Satan' - but it'll never be published; I couldn't get 'them three to meet again'. In thunder, lightning or in rain. I also played keyboards in Cradle Of Filth from 1995 to 1997"
Greg joined the staff of Terrorizer Magazine in 1997, moved to Kerrang! in 2007 and then to Metal Hammer in 2008. He also writes for Decibel magazine.
