Oh SG, please forgive me - I have neglected you far too long.

Hello, everyone! Quite a bit has happened since I last posted here (which was ages ago), so let me get you all up to speed, starting with...

I GOT A JOB! Yes, it happened, and I'm excited that I shall be earning decent monies very shortly. Just like my last job, it's in retail, and at a new store, so once again I've got to help put the place together, shelves and all. 'Til then, though, I'm in training and will be doing some shifts at another location so I can learn the ropes and get a good head-start.

A week ago I was set to quit my band. Now, things are going smoother than they ever have and I'm glad we're not paying for a practice space in which to bitch at each other instead of actually jamming in it. We had some friends come in for the practice on the weekend and after we'd played all we have so far, the unanimous comment was "I wasn't expecting it to be that heavy." Oh, but it is...

More records on their way from the States - I found a shop based in Seattle that doesn't absolutely rape you with disgusting shipping costs and instead only charge what it actually costs to ship. I don't think I'll ever use a shitty webstore ever again - score!

New Converge came out, and as expected it's recieved a glowing ten-star review from yours truly. Now if only I could find it (and a copy of Petitioning Forever) on vinyl... Here's my review, which should be in the next issue of Tsunami:

CONVERGE
No Heroes
(Epitaph)
10/10

Do you like your heavy music to sound like a scream-laden exorcism set to chaotic guitars, fuzzed-out bass and skull-pummeling drums? If you answered yes to that question, chances are this will be your favourite album of the year - because so far it's mine, and I doubt that'll change before 2006 comes to an end. On No Heroes, Converge have forsaken the stripped-down, crusty production approach of last album You Fail Me in favor of an all-out, layered attack - and it helps these already frantic songs reach an unprecedented level of chaos for this band. It's hardly a surprise that Converge, one of the most consistently amazing bands in heavy music right now, would release yet another brilliant album, but surprise or not, the final product is still a treat to behold. Fans will buy this regardless of reviews, but if you're a fence sitter that's yet to experience the relentless, crushing beauty of this band's work, wait no longer. Get this, and everything else they've ever released while you're at it - then soak it all up, let it grab hold of you, and then, consider yourself enlightened (Rob S.).


'Til next time, kids...

Yay, congrats on the job, I really hope it all works out for you smile What sort of shop is it, by the way?

I can't believed I paid $27 for the Refused Are Fucking Dead DVD. You were getting raped by webstores? I got raped by JB HiFi.

New Mastodon is great.

Isis DVD is great.

Have or got any or all or either? shocked

I feel like I'm about ready to step up to Mike Patton mode with the amount of shit I've been experimenting with musically as of late. I want to be a band whore! biggrin

When do we get Constance recordings? The Geminus Loco are looking at an EP release in February.
