+1 point for random title? Not much changed from last week just work, sleep, eat, drink, musics. Im thinking about picking up a 4-string bass in a couple of weeks, i have been putting it off for too long, a new friend has expressed interest in learning an instrument so i figure it could be a good opportunity to learn to play music i with him. But we'll see how that works out. If it does work ou...
Sorry for the retarded title, Hard to think at 4 in the morning. Over the past week I've been working on my new social links, so far it seems like things are working out pretty well but they do encourage my alcoholism, something that after the past few months I've told myself that I'm going to fix. Though the way i see it, as long as I'm not drinking alone or just to get wasted every night i sh...
Over the passed couple of months, most of my closest friends and family have either moved away or disowned me through some messy altercations. This has left me in a (hopefully) temporary bout of depression and a realization that i am finally, for the first time in my life, alone. So because of a suggestion from one of my last, i intend to start keeping regular blogs rolling in from time to time...
As awesome as Milo is, i think its getting kinda old. So ive searched the interwebz high and low looking for a new avatar and im stuck between a couple. Matches my profile picture, Shane Macgowan is probably my favorite musician right now (inspite of the fact that he has no teeth) and he looks like the typical irish drunkard that im slowly but surely becoming. The hat I've worn every day for th...
Most likely, you have heard the single, promoted out the ass by MTV and hundreds of radio stations around the world. A song with a pretty stereotypical choris and the same pop punk "lets go against the establishment but look like glam punk rockers while doing so!" attitude. So normally, i would support the hateful feelings towards the band. But, after giving the entire album a listen, my views...
Rise Against released a new vinyl through Fat Wreck Chords not too long ago with two brand new songs. (note: not for those who hate hardcore) Sounds like they are trying to make up for the disaster that was Appeal to Reason, now the only thing they need to do to make me happy is to sign back up with fat and release a new record with more of their older style material. though that will probably...
Normally, i think that all reviews on music are just excuses for people to talk crap about a band or to try and put them up to super human levels. But this is a special kind of review, I'm not going to use any fancy words to try and describe some special note the guitarist may have used, or point out any stupid meaningless crap like "the drum was off beat in the middle of the song!!!!". This re...
So its time for a Rise Against update i guess... New song released on Guitar Hero called death blossoms, and unlike their new album, it doesnt suck. (shitty quality) kinda takes me back to their older stuff.
So i thought i had it all planned out. Last month i bought Rome: Total war on steam for 10 bucks so i could brush up on my strategy skills (Campaign map skills, not battle skills, Armour and swords =/= guns and cover) it was awesome, i began building up hype for Empire: Total War and started to get really good at managing a huge empire. So about a month passes of me playing Rome: Total War almo...
Not exactly sure of the meaning behind the video but it is interesting. EDIT: You all know i just had to post this. Rise Against - Audience of One
Two of my favorite things in music combined into 2 minutes of awesomeness.
About two years ago, during the time when i played thousands of hours of CoD2 and ate a shitload of chinese food, I had almost no taste in music at all. pretty much the only things i listened to were things i absorbed from my family and friends, Johnny Cash, the occasional Linkin Park song, Nickel Back, and a few rap songs. It wasnt until about a year or so ago when i discovered what would even...
So i officially did it.. The night before Thnaksgiving. I re-installed WoW after being clean for a year and made a new character on the server stormreaver, name is Juntun, hit me up.
So i know most of the people on this site must think I come home from work, open up iTunes and listen to Rise Against non-stop while trolling the forums until i go to bed. But i actually listen to a lot of different music, Rise Against just happens to be my favorite band of all time. I normally only listen to Punk Rock/Hardcore bands (Bad Religion, The Offspring, Black Flag, NOFX exc.) and ive...
I have been extremely busy lately on work, school and helping contribute to this site so i havnt been able to really express my feelings on E3 last week. So sorry if this is a bit late. Day 1. Nothing really interested me.. Microsoft talking about the 360 and w/e.. didnt really pay attention to it as i am not a 360 gamer. Day 2. This was when the fun started to happen.. the first game that real...
So.. This is the site i have been waiting for.. Been waiting for an excuse to leave Gamespot and it looks like i have found it!
