Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold in Wikipedia

Some excerpts :

According to early accounts of the shooting, Harris and Klebold were unpopular and frequent targets of bullying at their high school, described as outcasts.[3] Harris and Klebold were allegedly part of a group who called themselves the "Trenchcoat Mafia", although they had no particular connection with the group, and did not appear in a group photo of the Trenchcoat Mafia in the 1998 Columbine yearbook.[5]

Harris's father stated that his son was "involved with the Trenchcoat Mafia" in a 911 call he made on April 20, 1999. Harris had a brief romantic relationship with a woman seven years older, Brenda Parker, about a year before the shootings. Klebold attended the high school prom three days before the shootings with a classmate named Robyn Anderson.[6]

Soon after they became friends, Harris and Klebold linked their personal computers on a network and both played many games over the Internet. Harris created a set of levels for the game Doom which later became known as the Harris levels. Harris had a web presence under the handle "REB" (short for Rebel) and other cyber aliases including "Rebldomakr," "Rebdoomer," and "Rebdomine," while Klebold went by the names "VoDKa" and "VoDkA."

Harris had various websites that hosted Doom and Quake files, as well as team information for those he gamed with online. The sites also openly spouted hatred for the people of their neighborhood and the world in general. When the pair began experimenting with pipe bombs, they posted results of the explosions on the websites.

Harris was a fan of musical groups such as Rammstein, KMFDM, Orbital, and The Prodigy.[7] Soon after the shooting, KMFDM posted material on their website condemning Harris and Klebold's violence and denying that their music had anything to do with it.[8] Most notably, Marilyn Manson, to whom the boys did not listen,[9] was scorned viciously by the media immediately following the attack.[10]
