Heroes in Boston

After watching videos and seeing the pictures I'm inspired. Not with the mayhem, or chaos. But the heroes. The men and women running TOWARD the chaos. The people jumping into action to help their fellow man. Yes the first responders and folks on site, but also the pedestrians that were jumping onto the wounded, applying pressure to stop the bleeding. Those are the people that fascinate me. I'm sure as things settle and the story is straightened out as to who and why these unthinkable acts transpired our sights (as they always do) will drift; from the heroes to the villain.

It's a shame. I'm still not sure why society glorifies the scum as they do. Hell in Canada last year the press named the psycho that cut up someone and mailed his pieces all over as NEWS MAKER OF THE YEAR. Or the man that killed the people in the theatre in Aurora. Or the scumbag that tormented sandy hook.

All boosted up by media to sell papers or adds and so on. Why not dedicate more time to the folks that lived, the people that stood by and said "not while I'm here!" That's where the real interest is.

Who ever did this act of violence and hatred did get what they wanted. There are people dead, many injured, and city in chaos. But they did not succeed in one place. They did not break us. They did not break the human spirit. Sure they did a hell of a number on it. But watching the videos and seeing the pictures of the heroes in Boston takin care of the wounded should only help to build your faith in humanity when something like this tried to destroy it. As Patton Oswald said we out number the scum, and we will prevail.

Stay strong Boston. Hearts, thoughts and prayers are coming from all over the world for you.

Boston stay strong

It's a sad day today man. I can't believe the tragedy that has happened at the Boston marathon.
I know it's early, and a lot of things are going to come out and details will evolve. But I just can't believe it. Everything about who did it and why.. It's incredible.
In all honesty I don't know what to say. Thoughts go out to everyone effected and everyone stay strong!!

Last 10 Early Morning!!

1) Periphery – Totala Mad

2) Rage Against The Machine –Freedom
3) Black Sabbath – Paranoid
4) Goatwhore – when steel and bonemeet
5) Threat Signal – To Remember
6) Circle of Contempt – NothingImminent
7) Mulletcorpse – Horsebeater
8) Straight Line Stitch – Bar RoomBrawl
9) Upon A Burning Body – ElMariachi
10) Disturbed – Stupify (Fu Forrbidden Little Nicky Remix)

RATM!!!!! Man I love that band!!! And SABBATH!!!!!! And interesting one on the list is El Mariachi. Pretty impressive stuff, I like when a band shows off other elements they have. I also hate when people shit on bands for doing so. Eat a bag of dicks. So what if its different than the rest of the album. I also like when bands put on a mellow track. I understand why some don't, but its such a good showcase of the talent. Mulletcorpse is a band from London ONT. Check them out. The video doesn't really do them justice, its a live performance. Go here. Then you can truly see how awesome they are. All the other tracks are fun too, check them out.

Last 10!!!!

1)      Carnifex – Hell Chose Me
2)      As I Lay Dying – Forever
3)      Bullet for My Valentine – AllThese Things I Hate (Revolve Around Me)
4)      Soilwork – Overload
5)      A Bloodbath in Boston – Unquenchable
6)      Cattle Decapitation – TheCarbon Stampede
7)      Upon A Burning Body – Texas Blood Money
8)      Suicide Silence – Smoke
9)      Hollywood Undead –Lion
10)  Mudvayne – Not Falling


This might as well have been a hand picked list. Some of my favs, and all over the place shit. Hell Chose Me is fucking sick. AILD with one of their strongest tunes from the oldschool. And there are alt-metal/thrash mixings with BFMV. Say what you will I like those dudes. Soilwork is always solid, not someone that I can really get into. I don't know why. ABIB is sick, shitty I couldn't find a video for that track. Cattle Decapitation is fucking amazing. This album blew me away. Texas blood money is a fantastic fucking track. It even comes with a little Pantera reference... you gotta love that. SS has a fucking awesome track with smoke, not that you can go wrong with SS. Hollywood Undead... This isn't bad. Not great, but I have never really been into them. Their song Undead was really good.. but other than that I'm still waiting for something that pops out. And closed off with a classic track from the one and only Mudvayne. Need I say more. METAL MOTHERFUCKERS!!

Things in the works!

I know I only have 15 followers right now. But that might change one day. Until then I want to know what you 15 folks think. I have been doing a lot of "Last 10", would you want to see me start doing more full reviews of albums and movies again?

I have also been playing around with finally writing a movie. It's going to be a comedy, and loosely based on my life. Mostly about things I have seen and so on. BUT, here's the thing. I don't know if I want to do it as a movie, or as movie of a web series. Like a TV show, but I can just post it online or whatever.

I have also started playing with the idea of doing a podcast. Or like an audio blog that I can post on here along with all the other things.

Really what it boils down too is I want to actually pursue a more artistic life. One day I would love to get paid to the things above. How fucking awesome would that be! But gotta start somewhere and sitting around hoping and wishing isn't going to get things done.

So we will see how it goes. I'm going to really push myself to start writing and doing more creative shit, but then again I have a hard enough time trying to keep this blog up.. lol. Ah hell, only time will tell.

In the meantime spread this shit around like an STD! Get your friends on here and so on, the more the merrier!

StongBad.. I don't know if this is a joke band or song, or if its just terrible. To each their own, but this came off as a turd to me. We have the GODS of metal Pantera!! One of my favorite bands of all time! More Deftones, always good. Pretty much a solid line up of tracks here. Awesome tune from Shadows Fall. They are usually hit of miss with me and this was a hit for sure! Check them out!
