So, through Trent Reznor's Twitter, I found out he started a new band with his wife. 'How To Destroy Angels' sounded a little... angry from just the name alone. Found a video, watched most of it, not because I didn't want to, just was distracted. And I ended up paying a buck for their 7 minute long single-song EP. dollar well spent. It kinda hearkens back to 'The Fragile's slower instrumentals, except with haunting female vocals, and delicious bridges. And I wrote much more about it than I thought I would.
Also, I realized I only like 2 songs off of The Mars Volta's 'Octahedron.' Kinda makes me sad, because I love everything else they did.
Art-groove has been eking back slowly, I've been doodling a lot, but not finishing anything, let alone tackling my overdue commissions. I noted my commissioners, and they understand. It bugs me the most, honestly.
Undeserved stress coming from all angles, not fun. Oh well. it's getting better at least.
That's all.

still alive,
