I'm proud of myself, and my friends, my band, my taste in music, the hard work I put into lifting and running, how much weight I've lost, my grades,how I see the world, my musical abilities, my family, how far I've come socially in just 4 years, the way I've learned to process emotions, and so much more. A lot of people have tried to convince me that some or all of these areas have been something to be ashamed of, but I'm finally deciding to embrace them. I know I have a long way to go in a lot of areas, but I'm trying hard and I'm proud of that.

The Assassination of Harambe by the Coward Chris Kyle

The notion that people who don't emotionally connect with every single popular musician/film/television show are in some way weird/pretentious/inferior is not only annoying, but incredibly damaging to the individuals that fall into that category. These individuals are consistently mocked for their preferences and taught that they need to conform in order to "fit in" with their peers, or that they need to stop being so "pretentious" and give "normal" things a try. I know there are considerably larger issues in the world (actually pretty much every issue is larger), but how about we all just learn to accept that not everyone fits into one single mold.

“Guidance” Officially Out Everywhere + 5/5 Review from The Guardian

If you were looking for a fitting soundtrack to the disaster movie of your life, one that uplifts but also shakes you to your core, Chicago instrumental trio Russian Circles can provide. On their sixth album they have ditched the mathy time-signature changes of old and instead created towering vortices of foreboding noise that sound as if the band have been mainlining Roland Emmerich films on an endless loop. The album begins with a melodic, almost baroque folk guitar and post-rockish reverb on Asa, before moving on to amp-exploding metal and sludgy yet lip-curling riffs on Vorel; and indeed, they balance light with dark throughout. Calla is monolithic and muscular, with flickerings of Tool; Afrika is a brightly lit, Mogwai-ish crescendo with blast-beat drumming and their distinctive, 3D turbo-fuzz guitar; and the final fist-raiser, Lisboa, practically levitates with its oppressive, cinematic build. Perhaps we really are nearing the bitter end – but doom has never sounded so good.

The Hotelier- An Introduction To The Album

My favorite song of all time.

I've noticed you've added a few new instruments to your arsenal besides the Gibson rippers, would you mind mentioning what they are and what they bring to the table vs. the older Gibson's? A black ripper is my dream instrument.

I’m now primarily playing an Electrical Guitar Company Series II bass. It’s aluminum, so it’s pretty much unbreakable. With the amount of flying i do these days, I wanted an instrument that I didn’t have to worry about every time I check my luggage in at the airport. Plus, it sounds and plays great. 

Grabbers and Rippers are great pieces of gear, though it is worth remembering that these were initially thought of as “cheap” instruments, and an original is likely to have experienced some wear. The epoxy casings on the pick-ups on those old Grabbers deteriorate over time, and they’re difficult to replace. One of my old Rippers started to develop a weird wax build-up on the pick guard, which I later learned was the by-product of a chemical breakdown of whatever weird plastics went into their tortoise-shell guards at the time. Apparently, the fumes it gives off during the deterioration are really corrosive and toxic. Thanks for the cancer, Gibson. 

I’ll always love my Gibsons, but I’m pretty happy with the indestructible nature of the EGC at the moment.

Thanks for the response! The new Sumac record sounds dope btw.
