Hate ain't enough to describe me
Thursday, December 24, 2009
As if the world doesn't have enough problems. Now you're trying to get people to say that problems aren't problems, thereby worsening the problems, and dragging other problems (AIDS) into the crossfire so you can really do some damage. Oh, sure, their's been some opposition. But the fact that something like this is even going to be considered sickens me. Honestly, people. Didn't WWII teach us a lesson?

All hope is indeed gone
First music video where you don't where your mask. And you're cross dressing.
Snuff said.

James Cameron: The Last Suckbender
Now, I don't have anything against James Cameron. He made Terminator 2, how could I hate him? But he needs to understand that if you're going to spend ten factoring years on one factoring movie, you cannot make it anything less than great. James Cameron seems to think that absolute value is an accurate way to measure suck greatness, because this movie has a lot of shortcomings.
As you've no doubt heard, the movie's plot is really zetta awful! If you can't figure out how it goes within the first half hour, then you're a factoring retard! Cliched is the most accurate way to describe the plot because that is all it is. One cliche after another. The only point of ambiguity I had was whether the movie was about U.S. foreign policy or the environment. Rocks that represent oil, military guy who says preemptive strikes are the only way to stop the terrorists, check, check. But, not only would that mean the movie encourages terrorism, since the "U.S." loses, but James began his work on this movie ten factoring years ago. It could just be a bizarre coincidence, but too much of a coincidence for me.
Then there was the special effects. People said they were awesome. I disagree. Mostly, the color palette annoyed me because you could tell it was special effects. "Special" as in how I would describe anyone that likes Avatar. And your mother. Sure, the robots were done well, but it's nothing you can't see in Transformers 2. I almost feel like saying that movie has a better plot line.
The actual directing and the action sequences were fine, which does not at all make up for the suck in the rest of the movie. Avatar needs to die so people will only remember James Cameron for Terminator 2.

countdown to infinity
album: the dethalbum
artist: dethklok
so it was enevitable that there would be a cd containg all there best songs of the first season. just like the show, the songs are over the top, violent and very well done. its obsession of all things blood and gore is so brootal you will listen to it way more than once. the whole album was recorded by Brandon small (along with some other people i have never heard of), so all the instuments sound apropriatly heavy and violent.
favorite tracks:
thunderhorse
bloodocuted
detharmonic
the lost vikings
awaken
album:black water park
artist: opeth
swedish metal is nothing new, except when it sounds this deep and disturbing. opeths' black water park (oddly enough named after another swedish metal band) sounds so pleasently dark you'll want to listen to it with the lights off. each track on this great album is about 8 to 10 minuts long, and wile there are only 8 tracks, each song needs alot of attention to unshroud the bizzare secrets each song contains. wile opeth is more well known as a prog-rock goup, this album is suprisingly heavy with moody guitar riffs, heavy bass chords, and the singers deep bellowing voice, all wrap up this dark and mysterious album.
favorite tracks:
harvest
bleak
the leper affinity

no.3
album: obzen
artist: messuggah
what can be said about meshuggah? a heavy metal band of anti-religeous eouropeans who use high octave jazz-like solos and polyrhythmic drumming? count me in! messuggah is unlike anything you have ever heard, and yet, its like everything you have ever heard. there is at least one song on this album you'r sure to at least like. messuggah can best be discribed as, a more violent and faster version of opeth.I was going to put there album destroy,erase, improve (which is argably there best). but I thought obzen earned the number 3 for its originaly brootal score and deep archaic vocals. this album is a great stocking stuffer thats heavier than michael moore on a train. thats on fire.
favorite tracks:
almost all of them
no. 2
album: iowa
artist: slipknot

no one does metal like slipknot, and no were is this more apperant than in there heaviest album, iowa. this album punches you in the stomach just to make you stand back up and beg for more. the songs are fast and ferocious, with heavy guitar chords by the late great mick thompson. every track just screams at you till you turn red and start hitting the ceiling (which hurts by the way). iowa is so well composed and full of misguided hatred you cant wait till the next brootal track. the album hits you square in the jaw with (515) and end with a bang with iowa. now, I like slipknot ok, but its the fans who wont shut up about them that completely ruins the experience.
but thats the only downside to buying this cd. its fast its heavy and its one punch in the eye you wont soon forget. this was going to be number 1. until........

(interesting fact: guitarist joey jordison had a brief cameo in the late 90s teen drama "dawsons creek" as the guitarest for a group called the murder-dolls. wile vocalist corey taylor played a small role in the american remake of "the ring")
no.1
album: depths
artist: oceano
now to be fair, oceano is no were near my top 25 favorite bands of all time. or even the top 30. but with that said, this was a very impressive first release for the myspace, chicago metal band. now you may be asking, what makes oceano different from every other wanna be "job for a cowboy" myspace band? well the awnser is.... nothing much. when I first read the booklet that came with the cd, I was really surprised to see that the lead singer was african-american. how many black corey taylor wannabes can you think of?any way, that and some odd add campains ("best online metal group of 09" and "we redifine the term "BLACK" metal." (the last one was quoted by the vocalist)) drew me to the "depths" (ha ha) of this dark abyss.
the one thing that always annoyed me about job for a cowboy was how the singer always went over-board with his signature "pig-squeals", which im sure he thought sounded cool, but just got tedious by the third album. oceano trys to mix it up by replacing the pig noises with more of a... singing werewolf eating a screaming cow......OK so i cant describe it. shut up.
so why is it at number 1 you ask? well this list was not of personal choice, but of how heavy the music was. and compared to the "depths" of oceanos first album, slipknot looks pretty tame. oceano might not be a band for everyone (given that they now hold the record for most fights broken out at each show), but it is the heaviest thing i have heard all year. taking the heavy chords from opeth and messuggah and the screaming bellows of job for a cowboy, oceano is a try before you by deal.this band is hands down, the heaviest band i have ever heard. brootal!
favorite tracks:

as always i dont really care if you agree with me, but if you have some suggestions, email them to me and if you make a good enough point, well good for you then. have a heavy holidays.

It doesn't change the fact that YOU SUCK!
I suppose I should have been prepared for such a radical shift in thinking, since I was the only factoring male in the factoring group, but the pain of betrayal still hurts me on a very deep emotional level. Now I have to sever all ties with that group and find a new, better one. Or maybe I'll start a group for XYs against Megan Fox. That'd be okay by me. But it is bothering that I have to be inconvenienced so by feminine jealousy.
