Back To Wordpress

Fed up with lack of RSS feed. Lack of categories. Lack of TLC from the site. Lack of traffic. I'm going back to Wordpress. Click any of the text here to go back to my current blog. I hope this is the last time I move...

A (Protracted) Moan On Self-Righteousness

What I don't understand about (strict) Christians is that they aren't allowed to drink much, but they are allowed to get excessively obese. I know far more hugely fat people than alcoholics, and this is especially the case with Christians; blimey, there must be a ratio of 500 fat Christians to 1 alcoholic Christians. Seriously guys, move with the times and ban overeating as well as alcohol.

Also, a Christian could compare my lifestyle with their's and say to me, "I go to church every Sunday and you drink far too much every Saturday", and lots of people (not just Christians) would immediately believe that their life is much purer than mine. But to me, that quote is no different than someone saying to them, "I go to Scouts every Thursday and you eat too much cake every Saturday". Get out of my face if you're going to be self-righteous, please, you have as many bad habits as I do, it's just that your's aren't mentioned in the Bible. Thanks.

My Production Skills

I produced an album this weekend. It's online on Navigator's PureVolume account. Considering I couldn't get the unfamiliar desk to work for an hour (it was lying when it said it was self-powered), I thought I did an OK job. I have copies that sound better, however, as the PureVolume versions are compressed to 128kbps. Laters.

Top 20 Musics

I made a list of my top 20 most important bands in my life. Not bands that I currently think are great (if that was the case, SikTh and the Mars Volta would be there), but bands that have had a great influence on my life. I haven't ordered them 1 to 20 either, I've grouped them into top 5, top 10, top 15 and top 20. Ordering them would mean that I'd get some wrong or something; it was difficult enough to decide anyway: it took me 90 minutes just to make this list. Actually, some of the bands I've gone off of quite a bit (SOAD, Franz Ferdinand), but I really do appreciate the hole that would be in my life without them. Anyway:

Top 5
Muse, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Iron Maiden, Pink Floyd, Dream Theater

Top 10
Stereophonics, Coheed & Cambria, Converge, System of a Down, Avenged Sevenfold

Top 15
DragonForce, Dillinger Escape Plan, Incubus, Franz Ferdinand, Joe Satriani

Top 20
Limp Bizkit, Rage Against the Machine, The Futureheads, Anthrax, Queen
