Shiva in Exile - “Anubis”

Gwar - Theme from Zombie

Gwar doing a cover of Fabio Frizzi’s title theme from “Zombie” aka “Zombi 2”. From the super rare “Lucio Fulci: A Symphony of Fear” compilation album. 

“Loyalty” by Acoustic Brony & Mando Pony.

An excellent fan made song. One of those rare songs that makes me feel so good I think I can fly. 

Senmuth - Persepolis 

Another song from the Russian one man band Senmuth

No its not about me.

I often find solace in music. FM radio needs more respect as provider of it. To night I was driving home and one of the stations played three song that just made me feel at peace with the world. One by Pink Floyd and two by Bob Seger. Bob Seger songs as tragic as they are lyrically always put me in a good mood. It reminds me of when I was kid riding on the back of my parents’ cars as drove at night. It was just a warm feeling that put you at ease on a cold winter’s night. 

Its an odd feeling. But it is a nice one.

I called my friend Hunter’s old land lord and inquired if he had any openings. He said that he would have apartments opening up starting in January and all through to the spring. I asked him if her building had any openings in particular and he said yes.

THANK GOD. 

My roommate finds new and interesting ways to suck. Tonight I have a headache from a combination of the stink of weed smoke and his loud bassy music that falls into the category of “retard with a mixing board” genre. When he first moved in and started playing that shit he kept saying “Its ok! Its not dub step!” like that some how makes this shit bearable. There really is no difference between dub step or glitch or house or electro or any of that club shit. It probably all sounds like Mozart when you are strung out on ecstasy. I’m going to buy the son of a bitch some headphones and hope he uses them. I hate his music and I can’t smoke pot anymore because of my job.

Also his friends are all sketch balls. Four of them came shuffling in. They were in his room for about 20 minutes and then they were gone. He tells me that he just smokes and does not deal, but sometimes I wonder. They weren’t here long enough to just smoke. They made me uncomfortable, so calmly got up, put on my coat, went to my room, put my pistol in one of my coat pockets and kept my hand on it in case something went wrong. If any of these bastards break in on us because of him, there is going to be hell to pay.

I don’t know if I am in some kind of a rut or maybe I am getting old and cynical, but I find it harder and harder to enjoy new things. 

Mostly I mean in terms of music. I like industrial music. Two of my favorite bands in that genre are Ministry and KMFDM. I try listening to newer industrial bands but it doesn’t hold a candle to them. I want to find something new and exciting, but nothing really stands out. I found one band that combined industrial with black metal. Normally that would be a winning combination but they sucked. I have found some really good heavy metal bands, some of them from friends, like Legion of the Damned and Naildown. But I always seem to find myself going back to the same old sensations. 

Maybe I am getting old. I would believe it. 

I try to find new stuff that is also familiar, if that makes any sense. 

To any one reading this, if there is something heavy that you think I would like, drop me a line, huh? As long as there is a tuned down guitar in there somewhere I will be happy.
