Hey guys, sorry its been awhile since i've posted anything. Things have crazy. We have been writing music like none other. We are really developing the sound. I'm really happy with the way things are going, and the others are as well. Lyrically, its taking on a very dark approach. I mean, shit, Black on High is the end of the world. Doesn't really get anymore dark than that. Black on High is a 2012 deal. Its 12/21/2012, bang, fuck, we're dead. Its taking on a bit more meaning for me though. I don't necessarily put a whole lot of stock into the 2012 thing. That the world will end on that day. Its becoming more of a 'what could end us' or 'what could end me' type of a scenario. Cause, really, when we die, the world is done for us. The world is over. We won't know the difference. Probably anyways. So, its a bit of philosophy mixed with personal experiences. And for us, there are probably tons that could fit into this scenario. Anyways, like I have always said through out this blog, we're happy people because we write 'not so happy' music. We tried to write things that weren't so metal, but you can't take the metal out of a metal head, so its seeping through a bit. But, that's cool. So, yea, God only knows the actual count of songs we have, but there are over 30 or 40. So, yea, it'll be interesting. Stayed tuned, there may be a 1st show in the works too...
On the listening front. If you have not heard the new Opeth record ('Watershed'), stop reading this and go get it. I love Opeth. They are the only band who can pull off a death chours with an acoustic verse. And there is a song on there called 'Bridge of Sighs' that fucking blew my ass away. Go get it. They may have restored what little faith i have left in Roadrunner Records. I have the utmost respect for bands who take chances. Not many people do anymore. It takes balls to do what Opeth does. I haven't been listening to much else. Although I returned to some old Outkast recently...
I'll keep up on my blog better, i swear.
