cryptic city

the next few days are spent doing, what i refer to as, "whisper screams". no, it's not what you're thinking.
this is how i learn the new songs whenever we record. everyone else is in lynn, mass, actually playing the songs while i shut myself away with headphones on, listening to rough versions of new distortion.
i don't know what else to say.....i'm in awe of brian's songwriting abilities.
i also love telling people how we write a record.....that look of confusion and bewilderment is priceless.
no, i'm not going to explain it in this....

so, i'm the vocalist.....do you know what that means in terms of recording? let me explain.
this means that in ten days, i'll do about two hours of work. i'm hoping i'm motivated enough to actually update this during the downtime....i really have no excuse.

i know this is not an impressive update, but it took me four months inbetween the last one and the previous, so i feel like i'm getting better.

listening/viewing lists for the last few days:

skitsysten - stigmata
victims - killer
duffy - rockferry
black angels - directions to see a ghost
parts & labor - mapmaker
a wilhelm scream - ruiner

coffy
hell up in harlem
taxi driver
LOST

last weekend highlights:
looking behind the drum kit at a very old friend
mdf actually being awesome
the lovely lads of disfear

that's it. i'm done.
back to whisper screaming.

oh, and i'm about to lose another tooth.
