in order to ween myself off of the endless "law and order" franchise, i have officially started this blog. for years i have kept many of my opinions to myself for the sake of my bands etc. my opinions have come back to haunt me on so many occasions. it's so difficult to have an opinion in the music biz, especially a negative one, unless its anonymous. people love that shit and understandably so. it's human nature to shoot things down. nowadays there are so many distractions that impressing people with some great songs is nearly impossible. you basically have to come through the speakers, blow them and swallow. then zip it up and leave them some money. i'll admit, i have a lot of trouble being impressed. i tend to think that is from the endorphin rushes i have experienced from writing and being onstage. for someone else to give me that feeling it has got be fucking amazing. in the past few years i've drowned it out by
listening to black metal, drone and noise. it helps and on a nyc subway it sounds even worse, i love it. regardless, i feel as if my love for music is still relevant and my hatred of capital letters prevalent. plus, i can't sleep on my days off. so i'm going to write and publish. if someone reads it, great. if no one does, it will merely live up to the substandard exposure most of my recorded output has received. boo hoo.
