    Here's a tribute/cover of Linkin Park's "From The Inside" I did in the wake of Chester bennington's passing. I heavied it up a little and added more interesting rhythms, but kept it mostly faithful to the song i loved when i was 12 :)

    I'm still alive and I made new music

    Hey everyone, it's me, that guy. Just poking my head in here for the first time in like 2 years to whore out my band's new album. I'm calling it a band cause most of the songs were written collaboratively and have been played in a band setting in the past, but I recorded about 90 percent of...

    ROBOT ZOMBIE ARMY - "CRAIG ADAMS" (i.e. masturbatory self promotion)

    Hey everyone! I've decided to take a break from lurking once again...and as usual, the only reason I'm making a post is to draw attention to myself like an asshole. I just finished up a new video. Dedicated to how I like hockey too much. It's a pretty catchy song and I think you folks would...

    Jeff teaming with Keith Merrow for a new album

    no clue what he's really saying, but the guy is Justin Timberlake in like 2000

    Soundgarden - King Animal

    i guess it is kind of an invalid comparison to this new material...it's not exactly the same, genre-wise (definitely sludgier) but I like a lot of their stuff for the same reason that I liked old Soundgarden material; groovy, gritty and ballsy without ever getting too dark or over-the-top. all...

    just when you thought it was done

    The best parts of the original Star Wars movies are that they're crisp, fun adventure stories with heroes you can root for, dynamic characters who draw you in, and scary evil villains. All that stuff is naturally capitvating for kids, so of course the movies are going to be hugely popular with...

    Soundgarden - King Animal

    meh...feels kinda stale to me. very plodding and unremarkable. as far as music in the "heavy alt rock" paradigm goes i think i'll stick with Torche. Whereas it used to be really impressive and an atmospheric sticking point of the music, I think Cornell's voice largely just gets in the way...

    The Star Wars Thread

    II is the worst of the prequels imo. absolutely boring, inconsequential plot, completely flat characterization and the love story between Padme and Anakin is hilariously stupid. III is the least awful, if only because The Emperor is in it, but it's still a pretty bad movie. the tone jumps all...

    just when you thought it was done

    I agree that Empire is the best film in the series but I think A New Hope is much better than ROTJ. ROTJ was way too cartoony and silly compared to the other two movies - it has some great moments like the final confrontation with the Emperor, but the entire Ewok storyline seems really forced...

    just when you thought it was done

    i would imagine they'd HAVe to go live action. no one went to see the cartoon movie from a few years ago. besides, ILM is part of Lucasfilm and was acquired by Disney in the deal, so I'm pretty sure they'll still be around.

    Is it hipster-ish...

    Is it hipster-ish...

    When I say "hipsters don't exist in the capacity that the internet says they do" I don't mean there aren't hipsters, PERIOD...I just mean that the thought that hipsters are invading culture as a whole and ruining it or that anyone who likes a certain kind of music is a "hipster" is ridiculous...

    Is it hipster-ish...

    i think "kvlt" needs to return to the metal lexicon immediately :lol: "hipsters" are like the cultural boogeyman, everyone says they hate them and are afraid to be viewed as one, but I'm pretty sure they don't really exist in the capacity everyone thinks they do. People say "they're snobs...

    just when you thought it was done

    Nolan's films tend to be a little too dark in tone for him to jump out at me as a great choice. Brad Bird would definitely be interesting though...and though I haven't seen The Avengers, everyone seems to have loved it, and Whedon's already on Disney's payroll...

    just when you thought it was done

    this is a good thing, for two reasons: 1. Lucas won't be directing future Star Wars movies, and logic dictates that whoever replaces him at the helm would HAVE to have a better grasp of narrative structure and character development than he does. The new movies(s?) might actually not be...

    my latest song - the protest anthem of my generation

    i'm not the only one, then, because all the images i got were from googling "fedora," lol. i've actually never heard of a trilby before and I imagine most of the people I'm talking about in the song haven't either :P EDIT: wikipedia says a trilby is a kind of fedora, so i think the song still...

    Is it weird

    i don't think so. after all, it came from your mind - you of all people should be proud of it and enjoy hearing what you made. i often listen to my own music because it helps me reflect on how my mindset has changed in the time since i wrote it, or just because something about it makes me happy...

    my latest song - the protest anthem of my generation

    i'm pretty sure i just looked up a chord chart, grabbed my acoustic guitar and hammed it up...ultimate-guitar.com has charts for tons of Sinatra songs. other than that not much thought went into that video, haha.
