A Moment…

I don’t pretend to be all-knowing or anything like that, but I just want to speak about the state of Music today in my own eyes… I wanted to call this little blurb “Case in Point” but my wife knew better than to allow me to piss everyone off. So what is the point? Exactly. It’s music… regardless of the style, it tells a story.

Growing up, thinking I was a poet, and an actor, I thought I knew everything you needed to know to be creative. How wrong was I. Not a question, a statement. I thought I was an Actor… I thought I was a Director… I thought I was a painter… I thought I was an artist.. but alas… not alas poor Yorick or alas, I failed.. but alas, as it is…

When I realized I was just like everyone else, and I was one of them… I wretched in my own lap…

I didn’t make it a life-goal intentionally, but I made it nonetheless… I had to make a point, a difference, and a protest…

Then Music bitch-slapped me. Literally… I want her to pay for that although she never will… Back in my day, the only music that made a point or gave a flying fuck about anything beside the corporate boiler-room pop-crap was Punk. It suited me well for quite a few years…

It was only 6-8 years until I heard Industrial… and that found all of my anger that I was afraid to accept… and put it to song. So I knew who I was… or did I? I got really dark… not in skin or hair or dye… but in my soul…

So what is the State of anything, but moving on and growing up? I wish I could guide you on my rocky path.. but I have nothing to offer… just good music.

So listen, take it to heart, and enjoy the living fuck out of it. And Yes, I do mean take it to a dark place… melted wax, straps, lies and tomorrow… go with it…

There is nothing like finding a band that just comes into your path and can help define you more than you know yourself…

So.. I guess the point of this rambling story is…

Who are we?
What do we want?
and
Why do I care?
