Printing [15 Nov 2009|08:56am] melbournemaniac [globox] Hi melbz, I would like to get a small printing job done today, city or st kilda-ry area. The places in walking distance on st-k road are closed today, I guess some place open early tomorrow would work also but getting it done today would bring peace of mind. Good quality and native forest free paper would be neat also. 2 uninvited, back for more

It's against everything I thought was acceptable to do or say through the years. I need SOME kind of help, it's just that the professionals I've talked to always believe I'm more innocuous than I say I am. Who'd count on the mentally ill, hah. back for more

When your own world comes undone, let me be the one to say.... [13 Nov 2009|09:03am] aslongasitlasts er, I wanted to write 'I'm not Jesus, you can't run away' on my wall, I think. But I wrote 'I'm not Jesus, I will not forgive.' (Both lines from Apocalyptica - I'm not Jesus) My point is, though, I'm enough of a loser to do this shit. I'm 25, dammit.

hauntology lessons [13 Nov 2009|01:22am] oh_morpheus [ music | tether -- sarah harmer ] “living this close to the road, you question your vulnerability.” wintersun rise over sidewalk’s yellow belt. kill the sweet&sour nausea-cramped scent of mapleleaf pulp. don’t let it end before olfactory imprints. let it cling like burdock on borrowed wool. let it devour with one swift gulp, one single tongue-flick, then let it fade like a doused bonfire. the forecast is shiver-kempt, hips loose and giggling; sunlight’s law. so get outwards-bound today. burrow in boroughs. go where the softlight hides. meet me there. back for more

Stripped Down, Cranked Up: My Chemical Romance Return [12 Nov 2009|12:02pm] chemicalromance [aintgotnosoul] Early in the recording of My Chemical Romance's fourth album, the band gave mixer Rich Costey a preview. "Everything he heard was just noise and spitting," remembers singer Gerard Way. Taken aback, Costey asked, "What are these songs?" "They're protest songs," Way told him. "It's the sound of 'no.'" Only later did Way realized exactly what he was protesting: "I was protesting us." After a grueling tour behind 2006's The Black Parade, MCR were worn out and fed up. "I thought the band was going to break up," says guitarist Frank Iero. "I was expecting a call from Gerard saying, 'We can't do it anymore.'" Instead, they took a year off and changed managers. This past February, they went into the old A&M studios in L.A. with Pearl Jam producer Brendan O'Brien. "The plan was to knock it out and not to overthink it," says drummer Bob Bryar. They expected to be done by April, but the record ended up taking all year. The goal, Way says, was to drpo the theatricality of The Black Parade -- which had lots of Floyd-ian pomp an da Liza Minnelli cameo -- and "to harness everything that's great about this band into shorter songs. Almost protopunk, like the Stooges or the MC5." The song that pushed them in the right direction was "Trans Am." It begins with the lyric "I got a bulletproof heart" and then stomps through four minutes of fist-pumping rock. With that new direction -- impassioned but melodic -- MCR put aside the noisier material they had been working on and wrote a new batch of songs; the fast-and-dirty "Still Alice," the anthemic "The Only Hope for Me Is You" and the super-catchy "Death Before Disco" (featuring the chorus "Everybody pay attention to me"). "We simply embraced rock n' roll and where we're from," Way says. "We learned how to be an American rock band instead of a British rock band." On an October afternoon in L.A., MCR are polishing the album. There's only a month or two of work left to do: some mixing, some overdubs, and sequencing. Today, Way is working on that pivotal cut, "Trans Am" -- which he thinks would be enhanced by "1.2 seconds of Queen." So he warms up his vocal cords, slips on some headphones, and asks, "Can I get a little bit of reverb? Yeah, it's a crutch." then he sings, "These pigs are after me, after you" a dozen times, creating a "Bohemian Rhapsody" harmony. His performance is stylized, almost like a yodel. With a grin, he announced, "When I start sounding teenage-girlish, that's the sweet stuff." Way's in a good mood, and not just because he's almost done with the record. In 2007, he married Lyn-Z (bassist for the band Mindless Self Indulgence); this May, they had a baby girl, Bandit. Way took two weeks off and then came back to work "like a zombie, long hair and unshaven." But fatherhood gave him a new perspective on his lyrics, which focused on despair and death. "I wasn't writing a record about becoming a dad, I wasn't writing a record for my baby girl, but I was writing a record for the person that she would turn into when she was 15, if anything ever happened to me."
