TOS Punk!


Do you think it's against the blogger terms of service to link you to every single episode of thundercats?

It seems strange, because I never really liked Thundercats that much. It's not like I'm taking a bullet for something I love or anything. I might watch an episode or two, but it's not really my kettle of fish.

If this was X-men the animated series or maybe Ninja Turtles thing would be different.

Anyway. If you liked Thundercats as a kid, please enjoy.

Edit: Woah, I gotta take that back. That intro was 3 minutes of hardcore awesome complete with flashing lights, monsters, backflips and an awesome 80s syth rock band. You gotta check that out.

I am Jack's pleasant surprise.



I bought it and it's actually really cool. Which is fortunate because Haunted and Diary were actually a bit lame. And everyone said The Raw Shark Texts was the next Fight Club? That book was 5 or 6 established cult Hollywood movies rolled into one hardback. It's awesome though, it's like if Dan Brown wrote good books. But Rant is the new Fight Club for realz, man. Probably something to do with it being the same author...

Also, is there a doctor/hypochondriac in the house? Nothing tastes right. That's not to say that everything tastes a little off. Bacon tasted like maple and coffee tasted like turkish delight.

Byte The Soundwich

Took me 2 minutes to think of that. Bow to my wordplayer, nerds.

Synthpop is fun but it's beginning to lose it pop edge. Listening to all of the tracks, not many of them really sound like pop songs. More like what a rock band would write if guitars hadn't been invented and if the 80s was 27 years long instead of the standard 10.

I was meant to record something today but I didn't due to lack of ability to find the right recording equipment. I was working on my slowest song, which over the last few hours has hit a double-time section and is now my fastest song... I called it 'I Am Dorian Gray' and it looks like this:


If you click the picture then it gets bigger.
The internet is magic or something.


If your mind thinks in red lines and colourful samples then you'll know for a fact that that sound awesome.

Another track I am working on is named 'Hey Lacey', and I've struggled relentlessly to split vocals from and already existing song so I could steal them and use them in my own but I eventually gave in to the fact that I don't know how to do that. So if you happen to be Jesse Lacey then I was thinking of borrowing your vocals. Call me, dude.

Also my back hurts and I'm on my pain killer max... unless I switch brands... which I probably will. The box says nothing about taking additional tablets of a different kind. I feel like Dr. House would approve of this.

Werd.

Hello!

I promise to blog tomorrow night and I'll be back on track.

Unless I go out or something. But then I'll probably do it in the day time! There's always a solution to stuff like that.

So tomorrow, it's a date. I'll do it. Unless you guys want to do it for me...

My username is: adam.tenex
My password is: XVItower

I'm trusting you, internet. Don't let me down.

And in the choir I saw a sad messiah,

He was bored and tired of my laments, he said I died for you one time but never again.

I ran out of words to write in my blog. Incidentally, it means that I have been able to write a lot of synth pop. This is easily written if you pretend to be a troubled writer constantly tormented by the notes he writes. I'm not that bad yet, so I have to pretend.

And until I have 2 or 3 more songs to present, blogging is slow.
