I got my pre-order in the mail today and then a few hours later saw Doomriders in Allston packing up some equipment (guessing they practice there) and all of this right after seeing them at UNH.
Ah, definitely a Doomriders week.
Now Playing: Jealous God

No, no, the thanks goes to you and Deathwish, Inc. for continuing to put out music with heart behind it.
For eight years now, you guys have pushed what it means to be a label, giving fans unique opportunities to experience some of the best extreme, and otherwise, aural statements around, helping to keep the communities alive and positive.
I don't need to make another thread about how fantastic this endeavor has been and continues to be, but believe me it wouldn't be overkill as you collectively deserve nothing but praise.
The musical world gets stale quite easily and it is up to purist of artists to forge new directions, complete exciting hybrids, and unite people in their unending strive for purpose and togetherness...but how those experiments reach people is up to the keen ears of true art lovers who wish to share the passion of said artists. At this, Deathwish is rather remarkable.
Hell, the recent signing of the incredible Starkweather shows not only your taste as a label (aforementioned "keen ears"), but the respect you gather from the artists around you.
Each and every year, at least one album put out on this here hits home quite hard, reminds me why I adore music as much as I do and, again, for that the thanks goes to you all.
We all need to start somewhere as you, Jake, said so well, and for those of us who weren't around for the beginnings of this punk and hardcore movement, it is labels like this one who continuously make the community worth its while.
A bukkake of gratitude and appreciation all over your wonderful faces, Deathwish; and the best of luck in all future endeavors.
With love,
another loyal and grateful fan

Saw Converge for what I believe was my fourteenth time tonight in New Hampshire. Great show and boy is the new album going to slay.
Anyways, dropped Chris off at 'bucks at 1:00 am, got to Brighton around quarter of and then searched for parking until five minutes ago (3:43 am).
Best part? Needing to go to the bathroom so bad that after a half hour of going up and down streets I parked in front of a fire hydrant, put on my hazard lights, ran inside only to come out to a $100 ticket. Six minutes.
I'm not contesting the problems with parking in front of fire hydrant...but I wasn't leaving my car there, my hazard lights were on and if I didn't pee soon I would have driven into something or someone...and then peed myself.
Damnit, Boston, turn down the suck once in awhile.
Oh, and to all of the drivers who parked over two feet from the car in front of them, ensuring that at least two spaces were rendered unavailable - [ long list of expletives deleted ].
Still love Converge, though.
Over the past few days I've been acquainted with a lovely variety of aural obnoxious maximus displeasures.
- On Tuesday, a car alarm went off every fifteen minutes from the hours of 9 pm until 7 am.
- A neighbor played an acoustic cover of "Take On Me," which reverberated between three building buildings, for two hours (I believe he was trying to record it)
- A scooter that drenches itself in a mechanical crunchy and quite clunky hum buzzing through the streets at any given time of day
- Myself incessantly tapping out of exhaustion
In other news, Arms & Sleepers comes out with a new record next month and I am so damn excited.
