Here and Now
Tonight, the last of my companions has fallen asleep. I am alone to watch guard. Will I stand in honor of victory or defeat? For me to lose my waking awareness would be detrimental. A strike or siege comes best at a time the defenders least expect.
“A dagger in the dark is worth a thousand swords at dawn.” I remember this in the veil of shadows, leaning stealthy against wall and...

How do you win a tug-of-war between apathy and foolish hope?

BIGELF: MONEY
This time, its a music video. I decided to click one of those ads on the Facebook advertisement bar- y’know the ones you never wanna click. And I got this music video: Money, by Bigelf. Once again, lyrics are a really strong point here. The band’s been described as sort of a more accessible Black Sabbath meets The Beatles meets Pink Floyd. Which aren’t really...
Tryin' on Clothes

I tried on the farmer’s hat, Didn’t fit… A little too small — just a bit Too floppy. Couldn’t get used to it, Took it off. Tried on the dancer’s shoes, A little too loose. Not the kind you could use For walkin’. Didn’t feel right in ‘em, Kicked ‘em off. I tried on the summer sun, Felt good. Nice and warm — knew it would. Tried the grass beneath bare feet, Felt...

Headbangache.
Band practice today was a big success. We can’t wait to play live in less than two weeks! Anyways, I need to return my neck muscles to their former glory- headbanging has given me a little bit of a headache and soreness. The only cure is more headbanging.
METAL FOR LIFE.

My name is Jack Austin Gilbert and I like music and I’m very sarcastic but I genuinely like people a lot. How’s that for an introduction?
A bit too long, but it sounds like you.
Thought I’d throw in some sarcasm.
There's a clear reason for the shape of the graph... →
Excitement?
laughinacorner:
I am truly disappointed with students. They wait from 1 am to 10 to get Jason Mraz tickets, but there’s no one but me waiting at 6 am for Bloc Party tickets!?
This is ridiculous.
Why isn’t there a bigger hype for this show?!
Can someone explain this?
Is it just me or has there been a degradation in musical taste? Has the likes of “hip hop” such as Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em and pop...
Brilliant Review.
I’m such a big fan of what this critic said about Lamb of God’s Ashes of the Wake. It catches you immediately and uses humorous heavy metal-isms in the bulk of the review. You’ll enjoy reading it, especially if you’re a metal fan:

The Guitar Guy.
I noticed this guy in my town recently- only on two different occasions have I seen him. Both times he had the same guitar that he made in a woodshop class, either in a guitar bag he wears on his back or just holding it in his hands. The thing is, he doesn’t know how to play guitar. The first time I saw him, at a pizza place, I chatted with him a bit with a friend of mine. I think he’s...
Rapid Thinking Makes People Happy →
jingc:
Results suggested that thinking fast made participants feel more elated, creative and, to a lesser degree, energetic and powerful. Activities that promote fast thinking, then, such as whipping through an easy crossword puzzle or brain-storming quickly about an idea, can boost energy and mood, says psychologist Emily Pronin, the study’s lead author.
Sometimes after I do a quick,...
