Aw, the picture of my cat didn't post. Oh well.

Next, I saw The Dark Knight. Not the best movie as eveyone seems to claim. Its good, and the best Batman film, prouble #1 or #2 for best superhero movie, but its still not the greatest. I really like Heth Ledgers preformence, as does everyone else. The plot (dont worry I wont spoil it, thats Wikipedia's job) is great and even though the movies longer than normal movies that made it a good thing. I liked it better than Batman Begins (I actually hated that)

PSYCHOSOCIAL! That means, well Im not sure. But its a Slipknot song and it rocks. Already mentioned this, but I ahve to mention it again because of its video. I watched the premire of the video on MTV last Friday and it was good, espically for a Slipknot video. The best part though wasn;t the video, it was after the video where it showed some Jonas Brother (d*mn them!) fans in the audience and they all seemed scared of Slipknot. Three members (Clown who's a percusanist, Jim Root who's one guitarist, and Corey Tayler who is the singer) introduced the video and talked about it. Well, Clown didn't. He just walked around with his big bat scaring people. Pretty cool, video is here:

Sorry if there's been spelling mistakes this blog, Im wearing a Halloween mask, trying to see what its like for Slipknot since they wear them 24/7. They actually dont, but if you know Slipknot you know what I mean.

Ok masks off, I lasted exactually 39 minutes.

We're gonna skip When Darkness Falls cause its going to come up later. Next, since Supernatural has already been renewed for 5 seasons and season 7 of King of the Hill's not going to be released on DVD, I need something else to try and save for summer. Im picking Metal. OBVIOUSALLY, its been seen less and less for awhile. (I think its because of Metallica, but dont tell my friend Bryan, thats his favorite band.) And I'm lying, its not Metallicas fault. Its rap. Now I know people on here that visit my blog prouble listen to rap, at least some of them, so I'll only express this once. And since Im about to complain about rap, your allowed to complain about Metal.

To me, it seems rap is something which takes no talent. The music is basically the same for every song, just a few beats and annoyingness, and all you have to do is be able to sing a little big, have some really *** name, and be able to rhym. Hmm. True metal may not be the hardest music to make, not sure what is, but at least for metal you need to make music sounds with guitars and drums. Some metal, that is just screaming does suck, but most rules. Im not getting off subject so from what I see anyone with or without talent could be a rapper, even white people. All it has seemed to do is enrage people with its stupid lyrics, cause even more gang wars, more drive by shootings (yeah you know the people Im talking about), and p*ss off even more people. I really wont complain to much cause I know there's controversy over bands like Slayer, but still. Come on! How in the hell does a untalanted **** like Lil' Wayne get a album 2x Platium in a month? Not that this is going to matter or anything my bus driver has a 8 year old son who rode our bus sometimes. He listened to rap. Dont be suprised or shocked all was fairly clean, I guess. I let him listen to some metal and as far as I know, he doesnt like rap anymore. Prouble because he heard real music. And it wasnt even real hard metal, it was Iron Maiden and Metallica. My bus driver thanked me because he hates rap. So anyone reading this, go listen to some real talent (I mean everyone, no matter what music you like). Or dont I dont really care and I dont want to push anyone.

Already have Psychosocial above, here's a few more:

If you have iTunes simply look the songs up on there and previw them. If not, here's some YouTube videos, some of these may be live:

Disturbed - Inside the Fire: http://youtube.com/watch?v=6gXhZXtMxu4

Killswitch Engage - The End of Heartache (video sucks and the song is cut but this was all I could find in 30 seconds): http://youtube.com/watch?v=HKUrCLUWt48

Lamb of God - Walk With Me in Hell: http://youtube.com/watch?v=A106iVvMzlI&feature=user

Godsmack - I Stand Alone: http://youtube.com/watch?v=hyc2MuyUC5k

All for that whatever the hell you'd call it.

Next, as part of my "Listen to More Metal ****nuts" and yes Im calling it that, mainly because it cant be called "Eat battery acid ****NUTS" from Stephen King's IT and because I can, Im going to start profiling bands with each blog. Prouble only one or two each blog, including a little history, their albums, my favorite songs by them, their website, etc. Of course Im going to start with Disturbed.

"Disturbed"

Active since 1996 as "Brawl", 1999 as "Disturbed"

Current Members:

David Draiman (vocals)

Dan Donegan (guitar)

Mike Wengren (drums)

John Moyer (bass)

Genre: Techinally Nu' Metal, Alternative Metal, Hard Rock but I just say Metal cause I dont care.

History: First started under the name "Brawl." But when Dan, Mike, and former bassist Steve Kmak got David as the singer they changed to Disturbed. The band currently has four studio albums, the last three have placed #1 on the Billboard 200, and they are only one of seven bands (and one of six consecutivly) to do that. Right now they are headlining a tour with Slipknot.

Wikipedia Page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disturbed

Albums: The Sickness (2000), Believe (2002), Ten Thousand Fists (2005), indestructible (200

Album Quick Review:

The Sickness, their first album is obviousally much heavier than their other three. The tracks are harder and more upbeat. Not completelly sure if it makes sense but its a good album overall, but my least favorite by them. Favorite songs from it "Down With the Sickness" "Stupify" and "Want." Its still worth the money. Overall: 7/10

Believe, their second album, better than Sickness and is great overall. Also had their first video banned on MTV (Prayer). The album, like the other two after it, includes more melodies and less "vulgarities" and works great together. Favorite songs "Prayer", "Liberate", "Awaken" Still, with this album they didnt hit their best. My 2nd least favorite OR 3rd favorite by them. Overall 8/10

Ten Thousand Fists, is where they became awesome. Almost every song is pure gold. The album may be political themed (such as Deify and Avarice) but it still kicks majoy ***. This has even more melodies and is their first "clean" album, but it proves their best. Favorite songs "Deify" "Stricken" and "Just Stop" My favorite album by them. If you haven't heard Disturbed, listen to one from this album first. 10/10

Indestructible, a little bit down from TTF. When I first listened i wasn't to impressed, but after a few times it proved its great. Their second best album. Kind of a mixture of The Sickness with its darker tone but still includes stuff from Believe and TTF. The songs all seem to be centered around dark stuff and Draiman (such as suicide or a girl cheating on Draiman) It was released on June 3, and is now certified Gold, which is good for a Metal album these days. Im expecting Platium soon. Best songs "The Night", "Enough" and "Facade." Nearly a perfect score, but not quite. 9/10.

Top 10 Songs Total:

10. Deumanized (Techinally from Believe, but is on Music as a Weapon II, a live CD/DVD)

9. Darkness (Believe)

8. Voices (The Sickness)

7. Just Stop (TTF)

6. Mistress (Believe)

5. Deify (TTF)

4. Stricken (TTF)

3. The Night (Indestructible)

2. Down With the Sickness (The Sickness)

1. Enough (Indestructible)

Haven't heard Disturbed you should. Great band, my favorite, can't wait to see them again August 1.

Oh ****, that was longer than I thought it'd be, no way in hell Im doing Metallica unless I split it up into two or three parts.

Next review is on Killswitch Engage (thats where When Darkness Falls should have been) but Im tired of typing now.

Well after a **** load of work my band has 6 full songs ready to preform in a day. Or is it two days? I forgot what today is. Anyways, we had a goal of 10 and prouble could have gotten around 8, but lowering it is better because now we've had time to practice the 6. No need mentioning what they are cause their all below in my past three blogs or so. But to sum things up, I'll actually be on more starting around Sunday or Monday.

Kerrang! released a CD yesterday which came free with their magazine. I didnt get it, but I got the whole CD off Limewire. The CD is "Maiden Heaven: A Tribute to Iron Maiden" and is basically what it sounds like it is. 15 bands covered 15 Iron Maiden songs. There were 7 bands that I really wanted to get, just because I like them and the remaining 8 I got just to complete the album. I was actually impressed with it, compared to the Metallica tribute album. The songs covered and by who are below and the ones with a * after them are the 7 I really wanted. And all the blue is Wikipedia hyperlinks to the songs/ bands.

1. "Prowler" (Black Tide) *

2. "Remember Tomorrow" (Metallica) *

3. "Flash of the Blade" (Avenged Sevenfold) *

4. "2 Minutes to Midnight" (Glamour Of The Kill)

5. "The Trooper" (Coheed and Cambria)

6. "Wasted Years" (Devildriver) *

7. "Run to the Hills" (Sign)

8. "To Tame a Land" (Dream Theater) *

9. "Caught Somewhere in Time" (Madina Lake)

10. "Wrathchild" (Gallows)

11. "Fear of the Dark" (Fightstar)

12. "Hallowed Be Thy Name" (Machine Head) *

13. "Iron Maiden" (Trivium) *

14. "Running Free" (Year Long Disaster)

15. "Brave New World" (Ghostlines)

The two Im most impressed with are the two by Black Tide and A7X. Black Tide simply because Im impressed with the whole band for sounding how they are and being so you (their all between 15-22) and A7X (my bad, thats Avenged Sevenfold) because their sound is so different than Maiden's, but they still made a good song. Plus I really love Flash of the Blade.

Overall its a good album and if you like any of the bands, all the songs are good. It's gonna be hard to find thow unless you have Limewire or got the Kerrang! issue.

December 12, 2012. According to The X-Files, thats the alien invasion. Im bringing this up simply because The X Files: I Want to Believe comes out in theaters next Friday. Sadly I dont have great hopes. Mostly because the last two seasons of the show were just horrible. But the movie includes the NORMAL cast and doesnt deal with the alien **** so it will hopefully be good. Not to mention I'm deffiently seeing it anyways. Plus if it does well, they may make a third movie which would deal with the alien invasion on 12/12/12.

Guess thats all for right now, be back sometime soon.

Monk and Psych season premires tomorrow and the premire of Slipknot's new music video "Psychosocial" appears on FNMTV Premires. All this starts at 8:00 PM

My Psychosocial song on YouTube is over 100,000 views! Actually I think its more like 110,000, but oh well.

Oh almost forgot, Metallica released the Death Magnetic cover. Its ok, but all that really matters is the album.

One last thing, not sure when it will come out by Disturbed's making a music video for Indestructible!

Well, after a very very long night I finished the guitar part for five of the ten songs we need. For some reason I also wrote lyrics to to more songs (Revenge and Unholy) We still have 8 more days and have 5 more songs to write, but as I said we may only do 6 or so. As of right now here's (I believe) is where we all stand with our parts.

1. Damnation: Lyrics, Guitar, Bass, Backup Guitar, Drums All Done

2. Hellbound: Lyrics, Guitar, Bass, Backup Guitar, Drums All Done

3. Glass Cow: Lyrics, Guitar, Bass, Drums Done (no Backup Guitar in the song)

4. My Darkness: Lyrics, Guitar, Drums Done

5. Demons: Lyrics, Guitar

Not completelly sure how far everyone else is on songs 4-10. Oh well, 8 days left. If we only fit in 6 songs the 6th will be My Time of Need.

*The following review on Slipknot's album "Vol. 3: The Subliminal Versus" is more about Metal than the album itself*

Apparently, by reading the comments for the Psychosocial song on YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bo31WosxeTs

Im the only person who liked Slipknot's last album "Vol. 3: The Subliminal Versus" Not sure who here has heard it, but I think it was a step up from their other two albums "Slipknot" and "Iowa." The first two seemed like %90 were the unoriginal screaming annoyingness people claim all Metal is. Vol 3, takes a different approach and included something called "melodies" The album also includes less screaming lyrics, which is ok. Their screaming is great, but if you compare a song like (sic) from their first album "Slipknot" and then Duality from Vol. 3, I'd pick Duality. Choosing between two bands, lets say Hatebreed, which is good, but is only screaming and growling or Killswitch Engage which is a mixture of singing growling and screaming, I'd pick Killswitch. Thats one of the main reasons I like Disturbed more than any other band. They have melodicness in their songs. Not just someone banging on drums, someone screaming stupid stuff, and then a guitar doing a simple up and down rhythm. I guess thats one reason Metal's less popular than it should be is everyone assumes its all the same stuff. Well its not! Oh ****, completely off topic.

Well, the albums great, better than their first two. It includes stuff for everyone, And I dont mean everyone. It kinda excludes people who like Rap, Country, Hip Hop, Opera, R&B, Gothic ****, Punk, and anything besides Rock, Hard Rock, or Metal.

Oh and for Guitar Hero fans, Before I Forget, its from Vol. 3. So yeah.

Hey, just taking time out of my "busy" schedule (at 12:27 AM) to issue a quick update. I have now written the ten songs we need by the 19th and they are as follows (D*mnation, Hellbound, Glass Cow, My Darkness, Demons, My Time of Need, The War to End All Wars Pt. 1, Entombed, Aftermath Pt. 2, and Cold) In making it into a song we have completed D*mnation, Hellbound, My Darkness, and some of Glass Cow. I also have a few riffs for My Time of Need (the slow song). We still have a **** load of work to do, espically with only 9 days left. Even if we get them all written, which seems unlikely, we have to practice them all also. So we'll prouble only wind up writing around 6 and then just preforming 4 cover songs.

Also, I had to find something to do during breaks of writing so I rented (and then beat) F.E.A.R. Its a fun game overall, but it is pretty much like all shooting games with "demons" in it. Its still fun and worth a rent.

Next, yesterday I pre-ordered Slipknot's new album "All Hope Is Gone" on iTunes. It comes with the 12 normal tracks and 4 bonus tracks (including a different version of one of my favorite songs Vermillion Pt. 2 and a untitled pre-order bonus track) August 26, cant wait! Dont really like their new masks much, the old ones were alot better, and creepier. The picture below is the album cover and features their new masks.

Clicking on it should increase the size. If not and you want to look better, just look the album up on Wikipedia, look at their pictures on MySpace, or look the album up on iTunes (which shows the best one)

Not much else to say, Sept. 4 is premire of Supernatural, and Sept. 1 is Prison Break. Around the end of September is House. Oh and Monk and Psych start soon!

Im gonna try and work a little more on "Glass Cow" then Im going to sleep. Report back in a few days.

Good news, our band has a gig in two weeks.

Bad news, we need 10 songs to play, and we basically have 0

So basically I'm saying I prouble wont be on much for a two weeks or so, until we get them. We have three songs with lyrics (D*mnation which is in the blog before, Hellbound, and Glass Cow) all written by me by the way and D*mnation is partly finished in the sound. So we (mostly me *sigh*) have 7 good new songs to write and about 9 1/2 to make into music by the 19th. Wish us luck! Im working on another song called "Entombed" right now but I need to make a solo for D*mnation also. Basically I'm having lots of help writing my guitar part.

As I said, D*mnation is below and here's the lyrics to Hellbound and Glass Cow (GC may change some)

"Hellbound"

I've done my deed
And I am out
All you have is greed
And all I have is doubt
With all the stuff I've done
I know the treatments just begun
Yet somehow I'm still alive
But death will soon arrive!

(singing)
My abusiveness
My wrecklessness
My weakness
My feebleness
All I've done is right
It was all done in spite
I will never quit this

(about a one second pause then screaming)
All this horrid bull sh*t!

Wrecking my life
I'm living the lie
Damning myself
Destroying my health
I am hellbound!

Im drowning in my sorrow
I can see the light ahead
It will all be over tomorrow
It will soon all end
Im asking for a solution
With my tail between my legs
I confess the sins in me
I've tried to make a plea
But instead I'm hellbound!

All the death I've caused
Is leading me to deny
What my future holds
And why I must live!

(I will live)

The treatment has just begun!

*Solo*

I can see the blasphemy!
My darkened soul!
This empty hole!
I fall to the ground!
I am hellbound!

Your ruthlesness
Your relentlesness
Your toughness
Your wrathlesness
All I've done is wrong
You've slamed my mind against the wall
I'm able to quit this

(one second pause then screaming)
All this horrid bull sh*t!

All this pain I've caused
Is starting to make me see
I finally agree
That I must die
I look up at the sky!

(slowely)
My pain
Your wrath
My death is your reward
I've made myself deformed
All the stuff I've done
Has caused me to realize
Why I must...

(fast)
DIE!
(as someone is screaming die someone else sings/screams the next two lines)
[I can see my fate]
[I should be dead by this rate]

Burning in the ground
Death through my eyes
Seeing the souls
Hearing their cries
With all my hate
I have sealed my fate
Crying on the ground
I will soon be hellbound!

I will be your slave
I've learned my lesson the hard way
All I can do is sleep
Which seals the darkness and makes it creep
The place will overwelm
Against me I will drown
Above me I will cry
Below me I will die

All the wrath I've unleashed
Has showed me my darkness underneath
With my anger inside
I know I must die!

I feel like I have drowned
I believe I'm hellbound
I can hear their horrid sound
I will soon be hellbound
All I can do is sleep
Its sealed the darkness and made it creep
This place has overwelmed
And now I'm hellbound

"Glass Cow"

It's late at night and you hear a growl
This pain and death I will allow
You should be scared
You've acted like you never cared
Now its coming to get you

With its eyes of blue
And glass toned body
Hold on to your dear Maudie
Its the glass cow

It's been safe and sound until now
You better now disallow
He's hungry and he's here and now
The glass cow!

(growling)
Glass cow!
Glass cow!

Why I've let this monster growl
I'm not sure why I even allow
He's sacred body's on the loose
Its to late to call a truse
You've mocked my life for far to long
What I'm doing is not wrong
Watch yourself or prepare to die
Go ahead and let yourself cry
The glass cow will kill you soon
As soon as the next full moon!

With its eyes of blue
And glass toned body
Hold on to your dear Maudie
Its the glass cow

This thing I've unleashed is on the prowl
Killing the cats and making 'em meow
Wondering around this horrid place
Its coming for you, prepare to embrace
It's about to give chase!

(growling)
All
Hail
The glass COWWWWW!

If it sees you you'll be puppy chow
The magnificant glass cow
It will kill you and disembowel
Its the glorious glass cow

The powerful glass cow!
The murderous glass cow!
All hail the glass cow!

Im glad I let this monster growl
I know know why I allow
The glass cow
The glass cow
Meow

Yes, Glass Cow is our comedy song. It was written in about four minutes and had corrections made and the lyrics were compelted in about ten.

I wont be completelly gone, but I wont be on very much!

EDITS

I thought I should say what these songs are about, just to let you guys know:

1. D*mnation - About a guy who sells his soul to the devil to get away with a murder, and his times run out. The hellhounds soon come and kill him.

2. Hellbound - A guy with mental problems believes he is talking to satan about his sins and that satans telling him to kill himself, which he does.

3. Glass Cow - Some weird guy unleashed a monster on a town that has shuned him. Yes, very stupid I know.

I also have two other songs. One is called "Entombed" and its not complete yet and i dont think I have room in this blog to post it. The other is called "My Darkness" which I just wrote about a hour ago. Its about a guy with a strange power that he's gotten rid of. Its trying to control him. Finally it does and he uses the power to take over the world. Hopefully, the song will fit in this blog.

"My Darkness"

My veins have blown
My minds been thrown
I've lost the seams of reality
I've f*cked myself
Beyond content
Ive burned myself
To that extent
I cant deny
That this monster wants me to comply
I dont want to do its work
Its feels my life has gone beserk

This darkness
Is trying to take control
This darkness
Has caused me to loose my soul

Its burns
Im hoping the darkness doesnt return
Its cold
This thing I call life, I must control
My doubt
With my pain, I will shout
(scream the next line)
Is this right?
I spread my wings and then take flight
Is this wrong?
This place called Earth, I dont belong

The countless lies
I've told myself
The shearing pain
I've caused myself
Their leading me to a darkened street
Where my demons and I will finally meet
I'd conquer my fear and understand my power
And with my body I could devour!

My darkness
Will cause a mess
My darkness
I must confess...

It burns
Im glad the darkness has returned
Its cold
This thing I feared I can no longer control
My doubt
With my power, I will shout!

Take ahold of this place I dont belong
I can do what I want whether its wrong
Destroy the strong
And enslave the weak
The future of this place is bleack!

My darkness
Has made my life a joy
My darkness
Is something you can't destroy!
