  1. savouring the sweet' date=' sweet taste of victory. Monday after a Port Adelaide win (AFL) is always good but when that win is over [b']the enemy (Adelaide) it's even better
    Not up on sports, but isn't the other team always the enemy? This must be one of those Yankees/Red Sox rivalries.
  2. I know the feeling' date=' my wife's family spent the day fistfighting, so now we're trying to help fix the situation.[/quote'] Rate: my wife's family lives in North Carolina and I only see them once or twice a year. Slate: My family lives there too.
  3. Drama drags bands down. If he doesn't want to be there, let him go. You have plenty of time to find someone else. And since you're starting off, you'll need to get used to people coming and going 1) as their tastes change, 2) as they grow up and start making other choices, 3) as they go through the various identity crises associated with adolescence, 4) as they move away for schools/college/jobs/families. Shit happens, it'll be ok, just stay dedicated to your own music.

  4. I have nothing wrong with CC but to me their kinda played out. I do like Suffocation and Deicide(Glen Beck is fucking insane and I love his vocals).
    Glenn Benton. Glenn Beck is a different kind of insane. I understand Cannibal Corpse being played out, but have you listened to their old shit? Not the McDonalds of death metal that they've been recently? Butchered at Birth and Tomb of the Mutilated were two of my favorite albums growing up, and even some of the Corpsegrinder material like Gallery of Suicide and Bloodthirst is still cool to hear. BTW caring about lyrics is a great quality, and one that I didn't possess until my late 20s, so you're ahead of the game there. I always had trouble understanding vocalists. Even the clean stuff.
  5. Glad to see you found Cattle Decap. There's a ton of good stuff out there. Since you're asking about death metal, I'd like to put a word in for some classics: Cannibal Corpse's "Tomb Of The Mutilated", Suffocation's "Pierced From Within", and Deicide's "Legion". You've probably already heard them, but maybe some younger people haven't, and today's death metal wouldn't be the same without these three albums.

  6. You're right, and I'm trying. Really wanting to focus on finishing my last few songs and I've been overdoing it. I get really obsessed with recording, to the point where I can't sleep for days at a time... really sucks when you've got a wife and kid and a regular schedule. I'm just trying to take a step back.
