I'll have some material up once I spend some time with a quality microphone. If you can make it to the Seattle area I can get you studio time for a very reasonable price.

Well the animals laugh from the dark of the wilderness
A baby cries hard in an apartment complex
As I pass in a car buried under the influence
The city’s driving me out of my mind

When people are ready to, they change. They never do it before then, and sometimes they die before they get around to it. You can’t make them change if they don’t want to, just like when they do want to, you can’t stop them.

So I’m about 95% sure that I’m going to move to Denver next year.

No, this isn’t an anime post, and I hope our followers, and the other runners of this blog, will forgive me for posting “politics” here.
This is too serious though, and with 3400 followers, you are my best audience.i *am* sorry if people are sick of hearing about politics. but politics or not, this is fucking scary: fema detainment camps are going live. FEMA DETENTION/DETAINMENT CAMPS. IN AMERICA. ALL FIFTY STATES. this is following the bill passed by the senate in a 93 to 7 vote that the government can, at it’s discretion, arrest any american citizen at any time without trial or reason, and hold them indefinitely. sure, obama says he’ll veto, but with a 2/3+ approval in senate, the veto will be over-ridden. so, they’ve passed the bill to detain us indefinitely, and now they’re activating the detention camps, all shortly after occupy wallstreet starts. google fema detainment camps, google the NDAA bill. google what occupy wallstreet stands for. please please please, research for yourself online what is going on in america right now. this is very very serious, and very very scary. don’t think about this as politics, don’t use that as an excuse to ignore this kind of thing. i’m not asking anyone to agree with me, or declare themselves as a 99%, i’m just asking everyone that reads this status to EDUCATE THEMSELVES on the shit that’s happening right now. read up on what’s going on and draw your own conclusions, but for pete’s sake, EDUCATE YOURSELF.

breaking news (12/06/2011) on FEMA camps going live
also, this alex jones video talking about the fema camps
a message from anonymous about the global situation right now
this is no longer about politics - this is literally about our freedoms & liberties.
AS AN EXAMPLE: say you have a pen pal in iraq, that can be labeled as “suspected terrorism” - off to fema camps you go, indefinitely, no lawyer, no family visits, no guarantee of leaving. 
say you put up a tweet: “i don’t like the president” — bam, suspected terrorism - off to fema camps you go.
 say you…. oh, have more than 6 days worth of food in your house - SUSPECTED TERRORISM, OFF TO FEMA WITH YOU. (yes, the last one is true, along with “missing fingers” or looking muslim, etc, check it here)
IF YOU CAN REBLOG A CAT LICKING IT’S LIPS, PLEASE REBLOG SOMETHING LIKE THIS.  Seriously. This is your life & your freedom. Spread the word, educate yourself, friends & family.

Uh, wow.

This is so confusing and scary…

i’ve known about this for a month or two but idon’t really deal with politics and unlike about %80, my opinions on what is happening right now will get me hate mail and unfollowers.
but yeah
scary shit.

The evidence has been piling up for awhile, but at this point it’s irrefutable. I hope everyone takes notice and keeps spreading the word.

Thanks for the feedback man! Yeah, I know what you mean about what you said, my friend had the final cut on the vocal layers and unfortunately didn't save the project file, so he may redo his part, I hope he does because if he does I think we can get it to sound perfect.

Yeahh, and the music sounds great so I don’t think you want to cover it up that much because that’s layered perfectly.

Okay, here it is! My Dramamine cover with vocals! My buddy Justin I met here on tumblr from Ohio thought it would be cool to layer our vocals so here’s the end product. We both agree it has one too many layers though… I can hear a perfect cover under all those layers. Or maybe you guys will just like it this way? There might be a better redone version with not so many vocal layers coming.

Can’t wait to hear what you guys think!

Aw, I lub Justin! He’s my favorite. But anyways, I think it’s pretty spiffy except I agree there is a lot gong on in it, but i like it for the most part.

I really like what you did here. I think you should turn down the vocals in the mix and have the highest vocal take a bit higher than the rest of the vocals and that would probably sound really good.

I had a dream last night that my music teacher and I fell in love in France and we were being chased by villains in suits. We were running from them while holding hands. I was sad when I woke up and realized it didn’t really happen.
