Friday Nite Fun

Gas to Ft Worth: $20
Room at the Hampton Inn: $100
Spending an evening with the Goatwhore boys: PRICELESS

I'd bore you all to death if I listed every awesome thing that went down, so here are the highlights:

HIGHLIGHT #1: Erika learns a new word: Bangover
Defined as: The disagreeable physical aftereffects of having just played a show after a month off, such as a headache or stiff neck, usually felt the next morning after the cessation of headbanging. Thank you, Benjamin, you brilliant linguist.

HIGHLIGHT #2: Nathan terrifying me with a passionate and angry soliloquy about why I should respect the life and work of Arnold Schwarzengger.

HIGHLIGHT #3: Sammy. Why? Because he's SAMMY.

HIGHLIGHT #4: NEW SONG! Carving Out The Eyes of God


HIGHLIGHT #5: The rest of the set... They played Serpent That Enslaves What is Worshipped and Baptized in a Storm of Swords, my two favorite songs. I was in metallic bliss. EdgeKrusher didn't film those, so I'll leave you with In The Narrow Confines of Defilement.


TMA, Texas Metal Alliance, also slayed. You should check them out. They are all very cool guys with a great crew of folks. Old school, like it should be.


Gotta say, Fort Worth put Austin to shame on 11/21. I'll be back again, that's for sure. Thanks to everyone who hung out, especially Goatwhore, who put up with my ass until 3:40am. You guys rule. Mwuah!

Bulls**t!

News article: Stressful and Disturbing Heavy Metal Music Is Bad For The Heart

Bullcrappy! You know what's bad for your heart?
Unhappiness in life
Lack of exercise
Poor diet
Smoking
Drugs

For fuck's sake, let's apply study funding to some of the subjects above, so we can further assist people in making and keeping lifestyle choices that actually might MAKE A DIFFERENCE. The music you listen to is not hurting you. The double cheeseburger in your hand is.

All I know is metal makes me happy and happy people have better health and energy levels than unhappy people. Bring on the Hail of Bullets!

First Fury Song Streaming Online

I'm psyched. See below!

Fury are proud to release their first demo track featuring former Ignitor vocalist Erika. Unrequited", a previously unreleased track from the "Betrayed' sessions, is now fully realized with dynamic, emotional vocals of Erika complimenting some of Matt's best songwriting to date. It's just a taste of whats to come from the Fury camp in 2008/2009.

Please give it a listen on the Fury Myspace and let us know what you think. Enjoy!
