Yeah, that’s right, bottled water is lame.  It’s not bottled water itself, actually.  It’s what it represents.  The fucking government allows so many chemicals to be put into tap water that I generally won’t drink it. In my home, I have an extremely high grade filter to filter the tap water.  It’s ridiculous to the…

I HATE those frigging LED lightbulbs.  I know they’re trying to phase out standard bulbs, because I guess they’re made of pure satanic evil, but at least leave me the OPTION.  I do not want to be stuck with those terrible LED bulbs as my sole option. The light they emit is just cold and…

Dont save your web inputs. I get that this is supposed to be a “feature” and that you can turn it off, but the fact that it happens by default bugs the living hell out of me.  It’s the epitome of anti-security. It doesn’t save passwords, sure.  But if I want to go to someone’s…

Let me tell you something that bugs the hell out of me – people who don’t follow through on the promises they make. Look, if you cant rely on someone to do something when they say they will, that’s just bad form. As a counter example, lets take this very website. Many, many moons ago,…

Me and my friends were lucky enough to have stumbled upon Adult Swim way way back when it first started. Ah, the glorious old “seniors in the pool” commercial bumps, Space Ghost, Home Movies, and of course, starting in December of 2000, the now-legendary Aqua Teen Hunger Force. ATHF is definitely one of the most…

Well, I hope everyone enjoyed Metal March. Time for a brief retrospective. We got to listen to some of my favorite, like Fear Factory and Sikth, we met some interesting new friends like Twelve Foot Ninja, and we listened to some stuff that isn’t my favorite (like Cattle Decapitation) but that is worth listening to…

I’m not the biggest fan of the vocalist, but again, all types of metal must be respected in Metal March. This is an interesting and particular brand of math metal. Lots of synth sounds using virtual choirs which underscore the guitar works, and alternating between clean soaring vocals, growls, and screeching. The chord changes honestly…

Well, we can’t get through Metal March without talking about the modern face of progressive math metal, Polyphia. An instrumental 4 piece of extremely talented musicians, they make some really fun tunes to listen to. Complex riffs somehow manage to be catchy instead of putting off more casual listeners. Their drummer does a great job…

Dillinger have been around for friggin ever. They’re one of what seems to be earliest in the breed of “math metal” rock, but their music can actually go all over the place, which is why they’re worth checking out. The first things I remember hearing were extremely heavy and “mathy.” I think a lot of…

I mean, come on. With a name like this, how much more metal can you get? This is a weird band. I don’t particularly like their vocalist. I’m not sure if I’m the biggest fan of their riffs. They often feel generic to me. Not particularly inspired. That said, everyone should check out all different…
