There's A Lion In Your Gut

Bane is one of my Top 5 Favorite Hardcore Bands and apparently they're putting out a 7" in September and that is great fucking news cause they haven't put out anything new since The Note in '05. They posted a new song, "The Bold And The Beautiful", on their MySpace over the weekend. It's good, it's great. Sweet music, good lyrics [mixed with some cheesy ones but I'm fairly certain that everyone has come to expect a little cliche from Bane]

And upon further review, the new Set Your Goals album is still fuckin' good, the one new track Strike Anywhere posted a few weeks ago is also still good!

I'm still pretty much focusing on music to avoid over-analyzing the current state of things in my life, in my mind, in my heart.

This past weekend was 99% perfect, if that's possible? I spent the weekend with Brent, who is actually my oldest friend now, and Beard. We packed up drums and cymbals, guitars and amps, and some essential supplies [frozen pizzas and water] and ventured out to the Cabin on Friday afternoon. There is no cell service out there so we shut off our phone and were completely disconnected from the world. Liberated. Saturday we spent almost 12 hours recording BITER's first cd. It's going to be 6 tracks of pure evil. Erie is going to be pretty shocked I think. It's NOT hardcore.

Further highlights:

-I shot brent in the throat with a foam dart almost immediately upon arrival.
-Bat hunting
-Brent shot me in the chest/throat with a Roman Candle, burning a hole in my wind breaker.
-Beard: "Titties. Big, sweet ones"

All drum tracks are complete. All guitar tracks are complete. All vocal tracks are complete save one. Bass and remaining vocals will be complete tomorrow.



Get bit.

After all was said and done I came home to new sheets. Cause anywhere from 5 to 8 people fucked on my bed Friday night...together. You think you know some people. Coming home to shitty news is the worst.

What's worse? Having already low expectations of someone and being shocked by even lower acts? Or having high expectations and being surprised by lewd acts?

The whole scenario literally makes my sick to think about.





That's enough.
