thoughts

they pop into my head. at random times. not enough to make something out of them. just wastes of space. here's some i've had recently.

- procrastination is awesome. fact.
- i'm pretty cool. but i know it. so it makes me less cool. and if i act like i don't know it then it seems like i just do know it and am acting like i don't, rendering the act futile.
- for a university graduate my spelling is horrendous. (side note: thank you spell check! although i think e e cummings had it right when it comes to capital letters.)
- fart jokes are always funny
- going back 2 points, e e cummings (oops, E. E. Cummings [wait, i'm not sure how he wants it.. oops, he's dead and probably doesn't want anything]) is pretty cool. read some of his stuff!
- brackets inside brackets are awesome (like in the previous point[or right here] or in the bad sandwich chronicles)
- am i just making stuff up to fill time now?
- finding new music is hard.
- i need to pee
- what is with me wanting to post on this blog more lately? starved for attention? nope, that's not it... i dunno. help a brother out?

what a waste of your time. my bad. check you all later.


cheers n beers

Flawless Victory

Here is a list of some records that i think are perfect. Start to finish. You don't press skip once.
Check em out yo! (If you haven't already)

The War on Errorism - NOFX
Classic nofx, brilliantly written, funny, what more could you want in an album!

Indestructible - Rancid
Gravely vocals, seering guitars, sing alongs, taste the rhyme.

Smash - The Offspring
Anger, energy, powerful... why they will forever be amazing.

Blackout - Away From Now
Droolingly good Australian hardcore. Just oh so amazing... Find it somewhere, anywhere!

Inside Jokes For Outside Folks - Nightbeast
This guy is loling all the way to the bank.

Searching For A Former Clarity - Against Me!
Punk rock story telling at it's finest. These boys ooze class.

From Here To Infirmary - Alkaline Trio
Dark brooding pop from those that do it best.

Cocktails & Dreams - The Lawrence Arms
some will tell you this isn't an album etc because it's a compilation of tracks from here and there. Put it on, listen to it. You won't press skip.

Potemkin City Limits - Propagandhi
Propagandhi are listed in almost every punk bands influences list. PCL is their finest work.

Siren Song Of The Counter Culture - Rise Against
SSOTCC is Rise Against best album by far, it makes me want to fight for change, to stand up and be counted, to get involved. Brilliant.

Dancing For Decadence - Sainte Catherines
Oooooohhhh... It makes me feel dirty (in a good way) all over!

Mute Print - A Wilhelm Scream
From the opener "Mute Print" to closing with "Dreaming of Throwing Up" AWS sit you down, tell you to shut up and show you how it is going to be. Just do as you're told!

Exit English - Strike Anywhere
Nuf said!

Our Darkest Days - Ignite
Zoltán Téglás leads you through an epic journey of hardcore punk. The way it used to be.

People Who Can Eat People are the Luckiest People in the World - Andrew Jackson Jihad
Check it out, you'll understand what I'm saying here.





That's enough for today... I gotta get some work done...

created and fallen

huge stone heads line the cliff face.
an ancient peoples only trace.
history is created and fallen again.
a civilisations hideous end.
is this a fate we all endure.
an imposing death without cure.
will everything created eventually fall?
hidden behind something newer, taller.
a city of millions becomes a deserted wasteland.
a lonely child with out stretched hands.
show me how i can save what we've got.
and i'll give my all 'til destruction is not...

bone and flesh

we are man of bone and flesh.
man of hope and soul.
we are man of love and lust.
man of blood and tissue.
we are man who doesnt want to die.
man who always will.
we are man who strive for glory.
man who crave the taste.
we are men with flaws like many others.
men who faulter.
we are men who have realised this
and so we are...
men who long for change.

jisei

a jisei is a japanese death poem. they are pretty simple and awesome. here is one i wrote a while back that i'm kinda proud of...

as it slowly fades
this light dims and i am gone
nothing left but dust

clash of titans

War? A titan against titan? Why is there talk of such things? When we, so small and insignificant in the grand scale of things, can do so little. Have such minor effects on the every growing world. We are nothing more than a pawn on a chess board, a blank square in a game of battle ships. Necessary for the game, but with no effect on the final outcome. We of little consequence, where will we be in one hundred years time? Not on the lips of students, not in the hearts of an uprising crowd. Are you really sure that this war is what you crave?
