thee randomness of random tapes
look at me, look at me, waiting a whole fucking month to post yet again
whooooooo
what's my excuse this time?
I've been recording the new Kindergarten Hazing Ritual album.
and, all the songs are recorded.
I'm going into editing/arrangement/mixing mode on it as we speak.
In the mean time
i number them
1. rememeber this song??
random tape #522
well
it was identified by a guy known only as mithrandir
and it's "I don't need this fucking shit" by Negative FX
thank you much
I don't have a new one. The last one hasn't been guessed yet either.
I've got crap to say though.
2. . . man, I really hope i don't need to start talking to bitches again.
Yet another J-rock band I loved in college got back together, and I heard nothing.
First, Kuroyume play reunion shows, and I have no chance to save up and go to Japan and see them
then cali≠gari make a full length, an EP and apparently break up again, before I hear anything
then, I almost don't hear that Daisuke from Kagerou died 2 weeks ago(R.I.P. - for the record, this was the last good Kagerou song)
now, SADS ARE BACK!!!!
and they're even better than they were when they went on hiatus in 2003 (probably after Kiyoharu realized Dir en grey were ripping him off again :) I kid, I kid, the last Dir single was actually really good. . . . but for real, there's some real SADS ripoff songs on Kisou. . and I say that as someone who thinks Kisou is THEE best Dir album).
It's like lynch. with a WAY better singer. (face it weaboos, Kiyoharu is better than every visual kei singer. . . .ever)
2. My buddy Reaper has been recommending Ihsahn's newest solo album to me for the last 2 months. Ihsahn. You know Ihsahn. don't you? you don't remember this?
here's him and another guy explaining the "loss and curse" riff
I checked out the new album this weekend. I youtubed some songs, and I found a song from the second album that also features Mikey Akerfeldt from Opeth.
how come metal guys in Europe know how to do good cop bad cop vocals without sounding like little children?
well yeah
Ihsahn's new album fucking rules. I guess you might say it's like Opeth if they were heavy more than 20% of the time. He used 8 sring guitars on this album, and there's a saxophone player
which
pretty much ALWAYS works with metal
Birdflesh and Cephalic Carnage and Sigh wouldn't tell you any different.
It gets a 9/10
that's my verdict
3. I will not drive to Brooklyn unless Deadguy get back together.
okay?
okay
so, here's a show I didn't get to see
the whole thing
it's Early Graves, who's album GONER will KICK YOUR ASS
thank you metal injection
4. TWO WEEKS UNTIL THE NEW KIDS IN THE HALL MINI SERIES DEATH COMES TO TOWN PREMIERES ON US TV!!
AUGUST 20th ON IFC!!!
5. last but most: friends of mine made records!!!!
Exhibit A. Gozer - pretty much the worst split ever
My band Kindergarten Hazing Ritual did a split with this excellent drum machine grind band a couple years ago.
They just released another split, for free download at that link.
GO!
Exhibit B. the Cocker Spaniels - sometimes you have to fight to get a bit of peace
This is a guy I've known since high school. It's his first album in about 7 years.
If you dig Guided By Voices, and other classic indie rock the likes of which is barely made anymore, you should grab this jawn right here.
Go!
