Lets just forget,
Everything we said
Everything we did.
Best friends, and better halves...

Goodbyes
And the autumn night, when we realized
We were falling out of love...

(the words that)
(there was something)

But we never did
Not to be, overly dramatic...

I just think its best
Because you cant miss what you forget

So lets just pretend
Everything and
Anything, between you and me
Was never meant

Was Never Meant

my personal album of the year

2010-12-31T21:58:00.004-05:00

House vs. Hurricane - Perspectives

I spent about 2200 minutes listening to this album over the last 12-months.

i wish i knew how i could describe this.

I've always known this band had a sound that appeals to a younger audience. For me hardcore was the 2nd last stepping stone into the world of music. I started listening to punk in grade 9, to hardcore in grade 10, and metal starting around grade 11. I listened to A LOT of metal over the next few years. That was my first foundation into a specific genre. Eventually I started to branch off into a lot of different tastes. Since then i haven't stopped discovering new music. Last year i can remember getting back into hardcore. Listening to all the stuff i used to, and finding new stuff progressively. So I love hardcore, what can i say.

This album is a post-hardcore album. It's very original. All i can pick out is the styles of music they borrow from it. The way the keyboards work with the music is something i haven't heard done this well by people so young. they keys are very trancelike voices, which is pretty widely used by other bands which might be classified as the same genre (i won't get into that right now). The songs are pretty much all exceptionally written.

I wouldn't even recommend this to anyone because it was perfect for me. well in reality i also don't think anyone would really like them.

2010-12-20T02:13:00.007-05:00

Merchant Ships - For Cameron

screamo with a midwest feel (cleaner/mathier guitars and shouting/yelling/group vocals). their older stuff is even more midwest oriented, but this album has a great balance between the two.

GOOD FUCKING STUFF! it makes me be happy to be alive.

i downloaded this album in october 2004. at the time i tagged the genre as ‘black metalcore’. i would say now that this is an early form of modern deathcore.

23rd birthday meal #1

2010-01-28T23:26:00.001-05:00

sloppy joes and caeser salad

the beef in the sloppy joes seems a bit dry, maybe my father used more than the amount he was supposed to. i ate two, he had 2, and i think there is enough leftovers for two more.

i didn’t have any caeser salad until after 11pm. i don’t really have any complaints. bacon bits were left out to make it vegetarian accessible, and melba toast was added to supplement the croutons.

all in all it was a pretty solid choice for my first birthday meal, and i would have again!

sky of harmony

2010-01-09T02:26:00.001-05:00

i still wait
standing on the hill
like a beacon at sea
my body in harmony
benevolence cast upon thee

scouring the horizon
in search of the great tree
piercing the sky
the final journey, this will be for me

2009-12-27T13:32:00.001-05:00

there really wasn’t that many good albums that came out. maybe it’s just because i spent a lot of time finding old music, instead of staying current. so what do i do.

JAZZ. Gary Burton, Pat Metheny, Roy Haynes, Chick Corea, Dave Holland. Gary Burton is a pretty fucking sweet vibraphone player, that’s what drew me into this. but everyone on this album is a solid player, and everysong is pretty much what you expect to hear when someone says JAZZ. The album is called Like Minds, and its from 1998. it won a grammy for best jazz album of some category as well.

2009-12-21T18:04:00.001-05:00

this is a pretty solid IDM album by Wisp. it’s a lot less glitchy then the other idm i know, and heavier on synths and pads. there are some better songs, and some crappier ones. it’s not the best idm i have heard, but it pretty good.

something about the scene

2009-12-21T02:41:00.001-05:00

so i found this band, Within the Ruins, and everyone i have showed them to so far has said they suck. they sound like they listen to a lot of scene bands and are trying to be cool. if you ignore the fact that they are trying too hard, they actually are cool. its like melodic technical metalcore. the only part that really stands out to me is the guitars. the rhythms are all over the place sometimes, but they seem to be the right places. they also do some breakdown-esque breakdowns.

2009-12-20T06:18:00.001-05:00

I've never written a blog, and I've never written any album reviews. I'm going to give a shot at both, starting with some albums to check out from this past year. GET DOWN TO BUSINESS.

the first album I'm going to post is by a band called The Reptilian. I DO NOT know the genre of the band. The way they play is not something i am very familiar with . the vocals sound like they are from a post-hardcore band, the bass is fucking funky sometimes, the guitars are mathy, and great to try to play air guitar too. also there are drums. you have to listen for yourself to understand probably.
