KIDS! DON'T DRINK, DRINK AND RAISE HELL ROUND THESE PARTS!

I was going through some 25-30 year old records, lost in memories when this big 4 wheel drive truck skids through the gravel coming into my parking lot then peels out throwing gravel all over my sign near the road then stop stops facing the store window with its lights on bright. Another truck pulls in behind it.

Pulling 'ol Trusty out from behind the counter. I fling open the store door and yell "What the fuck is your damn problem?"

They just sit there, so I march out to open their door for them. There's like four people in the cab. Guy sitting next to the passenger door says "What's your fucking problem? Put that damn gun away."

"No I don't think so hoss. You and your buddies come roaring into my parking lot throwing gravel and raising hell. I think it's you with the problem."

So this guy steps out of the truck and says "Sir I will ask you one more time, and it will be the last time. To put that gun away and go back into the building."

I said: "And I'm telling you, one last time, to get your ass back in that truck and get the fuck off my property!"

Kid sez "Sir, I am not playing with you, I'm an off duty Bartow County Sheriff, you need to turn around, go back inside and put away your weapon."

I almost broke out laughing. "Sheriff huh? Where's your badge Mr. Sheriff?"

"I don't have to show you anything sir. I'm an off duty police officer and I am telling you to put away your weapon."

I did start laughing. "I'm telling you Mr. off duty. You don't come flying through my parking lot throwing gravel and raising hell. Not here. Sheriff, off duty or not. So I need to see some identification, and quick, because you're on private property showing your ass, and if you don't leave, or produce some id and give a purpose for being here since you're essentially destroying my property, I'm gonna fill that ass up with buckshot!

By this time the driver of his truck had gotten out and he spoke up.

"Hey man don't pay attention to him man, he's just drunk."

"Does he work for the sheriff's department? 'Cause drunk or not he's claiming he works for the police and I don' think he does and if he really doesn't then he doesn't need to go around telling people that, because he can get his ass is a helluva lotta trouble running his mouth like that."

The kid spole up "Sir, I am losing my patience with you. You must return to the building and put away your firearm."

Laughing at him, I yelled "Kid I've told you one too many times to get your ass back in that truck and get the fuck outta here, now you're really pushing your damn luck."

The driver told him to get back in the truck and so did the driver of the other truck. Some girl that was sitting in the middle now emerged from the truck screaming.

"Get your drunk ass back in the truck! He's got a gun and he's fixin' to shoot your dumb ass! Get back in the truck!"

The driver added "Don't mind him sir, he's just really drunk. We're just out having a good time. I apologize for throwing gravel."

Finally the kid gets back in the truck. I notice my store door is wide open and the music is blaring at high decibels.

"We're rockin' havin' a good time here too son, as you can hear. I don't mind anyone having a good time, heaven's no, but being an ass doesn't fit in the profile."

"I understand sir."

With that the trucks left and I went back inside to get ready to go to a Halloween party, cause you see it was All Hallow's Eve. Good thing the gobblin didn't push it, cause he'd been one more of the dead out on this Samhain.

The Spiritual Bat - Cruel Machine

This is the second release I've gotten from the band. I thought the first a couple of years ago was cool, but Cruel Machine is much improved. From song structures to production, vocals and drive, Cruel Machine comes in a nicer package than it's predecessor. While the darker corners are still there, center stage are the great songs, cool grooves and the unique vocalizations of Rosetta Garrì; displayed in it's many forms on the title cut, which is but one of the many singles quality songs contained on this album. Another is Thunderstorm, which displays the aforementioned conglomeration of vocal feats, from gulped air pseudo punk to soaring gothic angel. The underpinning of all this wonderful throat are the sound paintings of Dario Passamonti; using the right mix of color, dissonance, flow, pattern and volume, his music creates image and visual when partaken. This is a rare feat artistically, done by the better ones, and when coupled with live performance, if the Spiritual Bat can bring across, there will be times not to be forgotten. As we enter into late 2011, this is one of the top five releases I've gotten all year. It's stayin' in rotation indefinitely.

Review: Slow Burning Car - Vol. 2, The Scattering

Big powerchords driven by straight ahead rock with time changes and groove injection woven throughout the sound. Slow Burning Car reminds me of the quality new heavy alternative rock that used to come across fairly often on college radio during the good years; an engaging blend of hard rocks, giving props to metal, original, and to some degree challenging. Non-committal blues are an under-pinning, and there is a tense outer rim of minor chords supplying creative stabs n jabs. This works to keep the storyline somewhat fresh, and helps the band by-pass the same 'ol whadda-ya-say game that many will attribute to retro; which really means back when songs mattered. Songs matter to Slow Burning Car, each number on this 12 song cd has an arrangement, once gain not just verse-chorus-verse cookie cutter songwriting. You can put on this CD and do a complete listen all the way through, the variety and paid homage to rock's classic rock godfathers keeps the listener tuning in to reference the inspirations. A time or two the three chord shout outs might seem a little thin, but working bands who either still pay for their studio time or just value their time, know when enough is there and leave off another 12 or 15 overdub tracks. One thing, this disc is not overkill, no peaked out leveling that causes ear fatigue after 2 songs, it almost sounds analog, which says something about the state of the great digital wall. It also helps there are some really great songs on this album! I find Vol. 2 -The Scattering from Slow Burning Car to be a pleasure to listen through, just enough to probably make me want to hear more on down the road, which bodes good for any band's career.

THE MIGHTY GORE EXITS THE SCENE

I hadn't seen Richard since my infamous Birthday Bash in August of 2010. He'd had a rough time for a long time, lots of health problems. Almost everyone expected the worst, sooner or later. You just wish sometimes it'd been later, much later. I called him not even 2 days ago, having not heard from him for over a week or so, which was unusual. Damn glad I called. I've known Richard (The Gore) since the late 70's and we became the best of friends in the early 1980's. By the mid-80's we played in the bands Theoria & Equinox together and by the late 80's we'd worked on an additional 3-4 albums of my own solo stuff. Later we played together in the band Bootlegger, and had been planning a reunion for that band for the last year or so. Between times we racked up many miles and many good times. Richard Kilgore passed away on January 22nd, 2011. YOU WILL BE MISSED MY BROTHER!

Actually, truth be known, the unemployment rate in the US is well above 20% already, it is the methodology used that makes it look artificially low. Ask around your community, it would be 1 out of 10 unemployed if the given (9-10%) rate is true. Probably, if your community is like mine, it's more like 3 or 4 out of 10 without jobs, making the rate more like 30% . This does not take into account people who need full time jobs who are working part time, and/or relying on government subsidies because they have a job that pays so low they are in poverty. Take those realities into account, you're probably looking at an unemployment or under employed rate of between 40-50%. Of course, if that were acknowledged by the gov't, we'd have revolution, and of course, the end to their raging party. So reality will not be discussed outside of private talks.

Better wake up people, and start demanding some accountability. A little tea-party and mouthing off will not save the USA. Some real long range plans, agendas and action MUST be forthcoming before some man-made or natural disaster sends it all down the crapper. Join us, we are the future.

Myspace VS. Facebook

First, Myspace needs to remove all the fancy ads BEFORE you even get into their system. It draws your attention away before you're even logged in, and YOU CANNOT interact with the ads on the landing page UNTIL you're logged in, then when you do log in those ads are immediately lost. Might look nice but it's a nonstarter.

Facebook has problems with you adding people and allows you only 5000 friends, this is a serious problem and their "you cannot add this person unless you really know this person" is a bunch of crap. This is the internet, a "system" doesn't know if you are really you and IF you really know that person to begin with (just what networks and systems/computers you may be using, which all can be spoofed to a large degree).

Myspace should have added video and real time streaming chat rooms (chat rooms maybe they had way back), long ago. The popularity of things like IRC (ancient and still relative), Stickam and Tinychat make you want to take part. Walls and streams are rather bland. Plus, having a file library for each user would go along way to adding content and things of interest to make you want to explore and hang around.

Myspace has many more useful features than FB, just their wall/blog feed isn't as inductive, plus you can't search within your friends easily. For bands still being able to add friends and communicate on MS easily tops FB (FB's "like" feature is useless).....Myspace never fixed their IM, and are now doing some crazy vanilla profile layout enforcement which will only hurt them. On Myspace you've always been able to do much personalization, which FB has none of. Should MS add real time chat w/ open group chat plus reopen their customization, they can hold on to the bands at least. Facebook is a much better name, Myspace is a really bad name, hark ens back to My Computer, My Documents, etc, like the crappy windoze systems. Facebook stays as it is (and it will probably), something new will blow it away- think real time chat rooms w/ video, live streaming daily concerts, personalization & better messaging boards (we're working on it, it's called The Underground).

What is really a trip, the old Compuserve and AOL forums had better chat and file library features and to a large degree for things like bands and groups, were much more useful than either the FB or MS systems, yet were never leveraged and of course those systems are dead now basically.

Believe me, add interactive video, live shows (which can be subscribed to, hey think $$$) and a real bbs style messaging board feature, you'd be amazed. Oh yeah Myspace, remove most of the bandwidth hoggin' ads, they slow your system down, crash browsers and doubtful enough people click them to make them worthwhile. Leave the big bad fancy ads to sections (like live concerts, file libraries, chats) where people might pay attention to them.

Religion is not the answer, nor is tagging oneself as an Atheist, which makes you a believer, a believer that there is no God, which would make your ideology a type of religion in that your entity is denial. If you want "proof" of God, the formulas are in science. Those wonderful formulas and equations didn't appear out of no where, nor were created by man, though he may have found or discovered a few slithers of it here and there. No, a much more intelligence entity developed that and put it to play in your larger set of systems. While you may deny there exists such an entity, the proof you can see, and live in. It literally takes no religion, the proof is in front of you and you live in it. To realize that, takes a positive intelligence, not giving oneself to a "god" or a "lord", nor to a limiting "ideaology"
which is what true atheism would be, which in effect, as with all ideologues, it doesn't necessarily free you, in some ways it "limits" you. To just deny it, that God can exist, is just a tad ignorance, or rather, I should say, belligerent posturing. Everyone is welcome to their own Ideas, or lack thereof. Still, you would not exist if it were not for God's creations, which did not come out of "no-where" or just happen. The SCIENCE that makes you real, did not come from thin air, or a just the Big Bang. No, bigger things are in effect here. A religion will not resolve it, nor will not believing because it does not live up to YOUR expectations, nor perhaps answer your rudimentary questions. Honestly, God does not care if you believe it as an entity or deity. If you believe you are more than little animals on a little planet in God's Universe, please by all means, take the reigns and drive. I do not believe those systems humankind has created can do the job. You might need a little God in there.

US FREEDOM PARTY RALLIES IN 2011

As everyone knows, politics in the United States is a high dollar event. Most will say there is no way around that to compete in that arena. I say, those who say that are wrong.

To become and present a new way in politics per se of course over time will take a tremendous amount of money, that is a given. Here at the beginning, we have no money and will not be concentrating on obtaining it for political purposes probably for a long time. We are developing a new identity, a new entity, and new theology through networking. As you can see, we are very, very small now, just now is the US Freedom Party developing to a point where there is enough support and activity to get individuals interested in meeting to communicate our ideas and begin to construct and write our doctrine. Soon, I hope to have enough interested persons to begin to register with the required entities to go the next step of presenting our agenda through candidates.

However, this DOES take a good bit of money. So we are a long way from playing in that ball field. Yet, we can present our agenda through information and networking, regardless of if we're "registered" or run in elections. Do so right, and by the time we DO get to elections, we shall literally run over our opponents. More than money, this will take the planning, building and implementation of the Freedom Agenda. In politics, in the US, has become a closed door racket. The power of the people lies not there with the established "power", it comes with the people who will free the nation of such a beast.

In 2011 I will start to build the US Freedom Party through meetings and networking, online and in the face-to-face public arena. Join us, for we are the future.

KARYBDIS - WAR FOR LAND

I've had this great EP for a couple of months now and it stays in rotation almost all the time. True the opening sound bites are beyond lame, but it kicks nicely into a driving "War For Land", the self title of the disc. The group show their chops with follower "Worth It" displayed with all it's stops and accents. Karybdis bring home the motherlode with closer "Strain", it IS what pure metal should be; driving, melodic, powerful and mean. It starts with a classic dark dirge, building into a surge of molten riff. Like a warlord laying waste to the city, the song is awesome, dark, and listen to the lyrics, a masterpiece of apocalyptic truths. Karybdis stand out amongst much of the heavier metal fodder in musical precision and for the most part the vocals clear, it is still good to see them include lyrics on their tray insert. All bands should do this. The 17 plus minutes of this disc are like a supersonic shattering of the windscreen. As the last feedback barrage fades, the metal machine from the UK have made their presence well known. The war has begun. Contact: www.myspace.com/karybdisband

SUCH VENGEANCE - THE TIME IS NOW

SV mixes old school metal riffings with hints of progression and death metal thrashing coloring bleeding throat vocals which you can actually understand lyrically. Amazingly, the band is from Utah yet could be from the UK easy if you happened to hear their music in just a listening setting. The American thrash heritage shows through (The Core) early in the album, and makes an appearance quite often through the album's 10 songs. 10 songs too is reminding of how albums used to be made, none of this 15-20 songs that way before you've got to 10, you've heard well enough! Sonically, like much metal, today and always, it is midranged out and sounds like it might have a dose of limiting. With some eq'ing it sounds pretty good and will save your ears from fatigue over extended listening periods. I play this album, using close to the entire thing, on my weekly show all the time. It contains plenty of good, driving heavy metal, with just the right mix of genres and time periods, plus a better than average dose of originality, to keep you coming back for more.

West's Infection Fighter Tea

(3 liter recipe)

"Helps the body to cleanse the organs and tissues of toxins and infective agents. Helpful against

stronger resistant infections, boils, and lesions of the skin and intestines."

2 parts Lemongrass, cut, sorted and dried
1 part Elderberry dried leaves and roasted berries
1/2 part Yarrow, dried leaf and flower tops (incl. seed), no stems
1/2 part Green Tea
Pure Honey

Combine all ingredients except green tea together in large stainless steel or unleaded glass cookware.
Bring to a medium boil w/ 2 liters of water. Medium boil for 20 minutes, stirring often. After 20
minutes remove from heat and cover. Add green tea and let brew for 15 minutes. While liquid
is still hot, add in enough honey to sweeten to taste (if at all possible don't use sugar).
Mix in one liter of filtered water to cut the tea because it tends to be strong. Best over ice.

For really stubborn infections, I add in some calendula in the brewing process, but just a touch.
This tea already will already have heavy overtones of lemon-chocolate and be slightly bitter. It should be a rich brown if prepared properly. Use the entire 3 liter supply in one week, can be taken for up
to three weeks straight.

Closure

1st week of August, 2010

Sometimes the devil doesn't even know when his number has been called. It was one of those times, and I had to be patient, and learn, and wait, which was the hardest thing, until just the right time. That time came, I went to seek. She was easy enough to find.

Over 100 degrees in the parking lot of the liquor store on Hwy 41 in Acworth this day. Blazing, intense, wilting hot. Like hell. It was hell which I'd come to call out. She was already striding across the lot arm in arm with a soddy lush carrying bags of liquor with a shit eating grin on his face like he'd hit the jackpot. Her latest soul to steal. I was upon her before she knew I was there.

"Well, well. Look who we have here." I growled at the succubus and her "date".

She smiled, while her prey tried to bow his drunk ass up. "Who the fuck are you?!" he sneared at me.

"The God of Rock N Roll motherfucker, who are you!" I shot back at him. He stepped back with his bags in front of him. Tryin to front, but I could tell my remark had caught him off guard, he didn't know what to do, or say.

The demon laughed "He is the God of nothing my love. Certainly not the God of Fuck, or maybe the God he is of fucking nothing!" she laughed like the demon she was.

"You are an evil bitch" I told her. "Who conjured you demon? That is who I have issue with at this point."

"No one conjures me Todd. I was sent!"

"Then it shall be I demon who sends you back to hell. Where you belong."

Dude with the groceries stepped back a few more steps.

She laughed hysterically "You're not sending shit anywhere 'o great angel. Poor poor pitiful angel. Weak and worthless you are. What is it you said so long ago, the reason we all got cast down. Some stupid bullshit like "NO SEX WITH HUMANS! HAHAHA! Now you are a pitiful man! A fucking joke! HAHAHA!"

"I AM human you evil demon. And they are my people. We shall become master over your kind. We shall see who is the weak and pitiful."

I unbuttoned the second button down and pulled back my shirt. She saw the star hanging from my neck and she quit laughing. She looked me straight in the eye. Fear like that I have only seen very few times. When one knows for them it is over.

"Go tell your dark lords succubus that I wear the new star. I will take back these things too demon you tried to take from me. As if you thought it was that so easy and simple."

She didn't have the goth glow of sin after sin about her anymore. She looked 70 or 80 years old, tired, frail. Her tattoos all melted into one glob of blue. Her pentagram on her arm no longer even having any shape. She looked at the soul she had been about to steal, in a sad glance.

He dropped the bags, bottles crashing, pavement soaked with fluids.

"What the fuck!" he yelled. "Fuck this crazy devil worshippin' shit! You can have that hag man! Jesus fuckin' Christ!" he yelled as he turned and ran away.

I growled "Yes she is mine. And yes you drunk bastard, Jesus will help you." I said staring into the demon's eyes, which grew cold and black as coal tar.

In angel speak I told it.

"Yes, tell your masters too I have taken this back also." I pulled the other pendant from my pocket and held the dual-ringed pentagram up in front of her, and the last bits of recognizable life went from her face and she moaned as one does as they take their last breath.

"I take the energy from you that you tried to take from me demon. Now you shall be cast into hell for eternity and it is you who shall be nothing. Tell your dark lords I am coming for more very soon, these things they have taken from us, and our planet, and our youth, and our soul. Tell them angel as you die now they are fucked. And I shall fuck them all. Hard."

It was my turn to smile. Walking out of that parking lot on that hotter than hell August day.

Obama: Whose ass to kick? How about starting with your own.....your criminal government has sold and "leased" lands and the mineral rights under those lands to for-profit companies, who are your friends and cronies, and you and them together profit from such; while we who actually own these lands and those things of the earth are allowed to "buy" products the companies who steal our lands come up with to sell us. It's all good, since it's "your" thing. What is happening now is more than a wakeup call. US Freedom Party - http://www.myspace.com/usfreedomparty

Sometimes you just gotta lay down the law to the wicked

So I'm sittin at work feelin' like complete dogshit. Thinkin' I'm gonna quit answering my phone after 1am and unplug the damn thing. Between the hang-over, the grouchy customers, and a general bad attitude, I felt meaner 'n hell. Plus, for a while I had been fed up with all the sexcraft (particular type of witchcraft) some folks were tryin' to throw on me. It wasn't just the couple of local ho's gettin' themselves off and tryin' to channel some juice out of it. Nada. Though their shit was sick enough, what I'm talkin' about wasn't some country folk messin' with the devil; whom I was really pissed at was whomever was doin' it at a higher degree, perhaps even a high priest or priestess. And I'd about heard enough of their bullshit.

A day or two earlier I'd sensed their sick thoughts again. That night, staff in hand, I'd transversed the mount and asked the Good Lord to make these people show themselves. I had something to say before I got hardcore. I got the feeling it would be done.

So I'm sittin' there wishin I'd drank more water than wine last night, and the sun reached that area in the late afternoon sky where it came in the windows at work and blinded your ass. It wasn't good for my already aching head so I moved outta range. I saw a shadow cross the light and she came in the door.

She had straight hair to her waist, and it was jet black. No makeup, flawless complexion, with rich ruby lips. She wore a victorian lace top with plunging neckline, black long skirt in shimmering silk covering athletic legs that sat on a six inch heeled pair of leather platform boots. Her skin was so pale it was almost translucent. Her eyes were like they had no iris, just glowing black marbles.

It hadn't took the Lord long. She was incredibly beautiful and exceedingly wicked. She propped up on the counter with her lip curled into a tight lip smile, staring into my eyes.

"So who is doing the black magic?" I asked her.

She said nothing but her smile got huge, showing perfect white choppers.

"You?" I asked her.

Again, no answer.

"Ok. Listen" I told her "If I feel, see, or hear you doing that again you will deal with me on another level. I give people a lot of leeway but my patience has reached an end with all this witchery. Do you understand me?"

Again, no answer. She just folded her hands together and rested her chin on top. Smiling and looking into my eyes, while all I could see was sparkling blackness.

"You will leave now" I said. "I am more than serious about what I said."

She backed away, still smiling and left through the doors. As she walked by the windows she kept right on staring and smilin'.

Damn conjurer, I thought. Later on that night she did it again, sucking energy from unknowing others along with using her own. Wicked, sick motherfuckers. I thought. If it'd been a few decades ago I'd sparred with the bitch; now, I let the Big Man handle it.

But I kept my promise. Her life quickly became a living hell, in ways I cannot even describe.

It's a few weeks later now, I'm again at work, it's just Tuesday and the head is killin, again. I'm lookin' forward to midnight, and some sleep. The moon is almost full, but I'm lookin' outside thinking, man it sure is black out there. Someone comes through the door.

It looks like she's wearing the same clothes except now they are torn rags. No longer are her eyes like coal tar, but now they are a beautiful brilliant blue-green. Tears are rolling down her face and she's cried long enough that her tears have matted her hair to her neck and face. She is barefoot, dirty, with trembling hands clutching a pack of cigarettes.

"I'm sorry" she gasps "I'm so, so sorry. Forgive me I meant no harm, only to....." she starts breaking down.

It was my turn to be silent, but no smile was on my face. Her eyes were like a frightened child and she gasped for air as the tears increased.

"Pleeeease" she pleaded. "Help me. Make it stop. Pleeeease!"

'It is not I but God who torments you now." I told her "I tried to warn you. You did not listen."

"Noooo" she moaned, her face a mask of exasperation. "Pleeeease!"

At that moment my heart broke for her. I felt a wave of warmth and compassion sweep over me. I knew what I had to do. I extended my arm towards her, my palm up on the counter. I found her eyes and looked deep inside, touching her soul.

"Be done with your evil ways. Come to me and truly offer me love and I will return the same to you. Accept my love and I shall cast you from the darkness and you will be with me, us together, forever in eternity."

Her face had a look as if someone had shot her. She slowly shook her head. Then is was if she could not get out the door quick enough, like a blastwave threw her out. She skidded off the store's porch and hit the concrete hard. She got up fast and ran, never looking back at me.

Damn, I thought. Ain't no rest for the wicked.

I broke a big smile. My headache was gone.

THE RETURN OF THE SUCCUBUS

Work had already been a bitch. Like an idiot I'd tried to help someone who "claimed" they couldn't get the pumps to work, so I turned them on for them and told them to come in and pay. Of course, while i was busy inside with a customer they drove off, $53 worth. Probably that's it for that I job I kept thinking. I filed a police report and they said the tag number I gave them came back to a Bonneville, not a chevy truck. It kinda set the tone for the evening, I was pissed.

So I'm sittin there thinking that soon my studio was gonna be torn down, and since I'd actually then be homeless, again, and with no one really here for me in a personal way for me to want to hang around this area any more after then, I was dreaming of the beach in California again. I'd made connections on a rehearsal space in Santa Monica for 800 a month w/ internet connection and private bathroom. I was wondering if I should call them back and ask them if dogs were OK. If not I guess I'd just have to slip Spike in after a day or two and hope for the best. I heard the beep-beep of the door to the store signaling someone coming in. I looked up.....

She had a pink and black mohawk, piercings in lips, nose, eyes and fully pierced ears. I could see by her really, really tight white t-shirt the nips on her ample breasts had big rings in 'em too. Not your usual gothic black makeup, but glittering silver and gold eye shadings. She had full sleeves in tats with a huge full forearm inverted pentagram on her left. She had an inverted five pointed star hanging from a thick silver rope chain round her neck. Sometimes that don't mean anything. Sometimes it means they are a first degree black magic practitioner. Sometimes too, it meant they were a desending angel; not one of the more powerful choirs, whom all wear the double circled star, a real pentagram.. I looked at her eyes, my questions were answered. She was a demon, a succubus - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Succubus, much less than an angel; evil though just the same. The smell of myrrh, musk and sex filled the air.

She honed in my eyes too, smiled and bought a pack of Marlboro lights.

"So why don't you have a full pentagram on your chest honey?" I asked her.

"I have a full pentangle on my arm, see....." she touched her tat and all her pictures seemed to shimmer. "Besides" she said "if I wear too many pentagrams people will think I worship the devil."

"NNaaaahhh" I scowled.

"You're Todd West aren't you?" She smiled. " You live out on this road don't you?"

I was just thinking how much I hated it when someone called it a pentangle, and her remark kinda caught me off guard.

"Yeah. And who are you?" I've never seen this bitch before in my life. I think.

She titled her head towards the door and we stepped outside, away from the store's microphones and cameras.

"So where is your pentagram Todd West?" she sneered, the smell of sex enough to knock a bull to his knees. I looked at her car. It had an Ohio tag on it. I looked back at her. She looked to be, maybe 23, 24, and suddenly hot as a motherfucker.

"Witch stole it. I don't wear it anymore anyway. Who cares and who are you?

"Maybe I give it back to you? It said bring bad magic."

"I hope whatever magic she tried with it fucked her up. I know she still has it. I can feel her trying to use it every so often. Or somebody does. Maybe you know this witch? Cause you ain't her. I don't need it back, I will melt it down."

"For your new "star" - distone on star

The succubus nodded and lit a smoke. "Let's see, you work at a place called Big Mama's, and, wow, you used to call her Big Mama......."

"Drunken whore, that's usually how I remember her now." I said.

"Like your drunk whore now....."

"Whatever demon" I said cutting her off. "I don't have a whore now, drunk or otherwise."

That voice, like something you'd hear in the movies came out, part child, part old man, wholly demonic.

"I not demon" she croaked "I angel.

"Wench you are no angel. We call you demons, or imps, or as you are, incubus, or succubus. For none of the greater of you walk here now."

"So that makes you demon too, right my love. For you are here too, cast out with us........"

"Demon I am here for it is the time for me to be here. The great angelic wars are over. I come to collect. I am not trapped here, nor in any realm."

"Yet you are flesh and blood. Weak and powerless. You die like all human pigs."

"Ahh but demon" I smiled. "Rid me of this weak little body and I can then raze this place to ruin. For you know demon I am not afraid of death, for I am, in the end, it's very master.

They hated that shit. For some would think the dark would always rule over death. Sorry, party over. Just a matter of time......

"So where is your star now, William Todd (she spit my name out like it was poison). There is nothing on your puny little chest, fat man."

"When it is time demon, I wear it well, and I will come to get your ass."

"You want me now, Todd West. You want me because you know only ones like ourselves, you and I, can please one another." If there was ever an evil smirk, she wore it now as she placed her and on her tiny waist and thrust out her boobs and hips, ran her tongue 'round her lips.

She laughed at me.

"Yes angel. What a waste, what a shame." Her eyes blazed and she was maybe three inches from me, tempting me. I could smell her sex dripping, but her breath was like horseshit.

I kept on smilin'.

The demoness turned up the heat many notches. While she may have looked like the punk rock bitch from hell a few mnutes ago, now it was almost like she shone and radiated passion. I'd seen that light before, many times. Angels of light, yeah, right bitch. I started laughing, and that set her off.

"Old man you could not handle this shit...." she growled

"Wench", I said. "I will wear that mother fucker to the ground."

"Yeah, in your dreams."

" I will be home after one. You can deal the deal then."

"This deal is?"

I just laughed.

"Soul of a whore?" she snorted.

"Yes demon" I said "you are definitely a whore."

'Why not, oh great angel, can you not save the soul of your whores. For you not get this one!"

"I'm not in the soul saving business demon. I wouldn't even bother to spit on yours."

"Better to have them trade the good shit for a line of the good shit. Or perhaps whore themselves
to something nasty for the love of money. Saying sin after sin is just for fun, maybe pay some bills...."

"Fuck you demon...."

"Some great angel, when you don't even have some whore to a married man....."

"That's enough, you are the whore. Fuck you."

"You don't have it in you old man."

I smiled. "I told you, and I'm not the one just talking."

"Haha. We shall see tonight. I bring friend. You win you save soul."

"I will feed on yours demon......"

"We shall see, we shall see." she walked off, glancing back.

I wanted to say something really nasty, but enough had been said. I just shook my head.

It's 6:45am as I write this. No one has knocked on my door all night. See. Cowards. Again evil is all lies and deception. Poor pitiful demon could not even tame this "old man" Shoulda took the chance when she had it.

See you in hell bitch.

Innocent Prey - Nemesis / Secrecy

Micqel Servetus preaches real world observations on his indie label releases. While the sound quality borders on nominal at times, the lyrics and their delivery make up a good bit and more for that. The artist sings frankly about our big brother government and collapsing social infrastructures; he does not shy away one bit from mixing every conspiracy, threat, and abuse done in our names into a new type of monster. Servetus goes one further with the commentary throughout the Secrecy album, exploring the worker-as-state-slave concept to a full conclusion; they, you, and I, are fucked. On both albums, you need to work a bit with an eq to get the best, most enjoyable performances; Innocent Prey cleans up real nasty with Servetus drenching his vocals in feed-back storms as he riffs and jams above triggered drum patterns. Nothing really new music wise, but he pulls it off like a precise doomsday machine, making the apocalyptic feeling that much more perverse. While both albums carry nary a "bad" song, I prefer the balls-out feel of Nemesis a bit over the heavier psychedelia styled concepts of Secrecy. Nemesis is actually a bit rawer too, reminding me of some of the early industrial work at the beginning of that era. Whichever of these albums you prefer, there is great writing and content on both. Servetus hits the pinnacle of his stride on Nemesis's "RFID" - "Big brother sees all, Big Brother controls all, Big Brother is the law, Big Brother is God!" Amen brother.

"Some people get confused about justice as opposed to law. Laws may not have to do so much with justice as with administration of authority, which is almost always at some level self-serving or serving those or that which grant it authority to administer punishment. Justice on the other hand at the core serves the weak, oppressed and those done wrong. It cares not so much for authority as it does righteousness; for justice nurtures as opposed to punishes.

I come to administer justice, and seek it from each nation, regardless of its laws. Should it's law forcefully supersede justice, then that nation which allows such, and in fact revels in injustice, it doomed to utter failure and destruction......."

From the book - The Great Angelic Wars (c) 2010 WTW

The Technians were not just smart, they were basically a race of geniuses. They used the virtual self to travel great distances via light data encoding and were able to transfer information into star plasmas to create presence in the galaxies they traveled to. However, the Technians did not believe in God, for they believed themselves greater than such silly stories. They began creating life in the far fringes of their space. That's when the Angels got called in.

The life they created were made to be militaristic, to be soldiers, to work for the Technians to control other worlds. They were brutal biological machines, much like the human version of cyborgs, except meaner than hell. A war was waging between these life forms and a prehistoric species of intelligent reptile on a planet in the Rixos galaxy called Cyverlia. The Technians were massacring the people with their army. The Cyverlians prayed to God to have mercy on them. He did.

Michael and I peered into the solar system. "The Technicans are very intelligent and advanced." I remarked.

"They do the work of evil though, look at the slaughter." the Great Angel replied.

I could see too, that the Great Angel Hameri was using the Technians, and they were not ignorant to this fact. They may not have believed in God, but they were friendly with the Dark Angels, believing them to be another great intelligent race like themselves. We were not so much concerned about the Technians, but the death Hameri's demons brought upon God fearing simple, good people. They used death to feed of the energy of those souls.

I raised my staff.........

The Devil Is My Brother
Text insert that accompanies the single "The Devil Is My Brother" from the album Massive by Todd West (c) 2009 / 2010

Everyone believes the story of Adam and Eve, the garden of eden and the the snake is a nice fairy tale, or at best a type of moralistic analogy. True, it's kinda both. Now, we all know dinosaurs were here, basically how the earth was made. True, we kinda do, in a realistic way. We don't quite grasp how time works and there is the difference. We imagine if the garden of eden story is true, then it was at a certain "period" in history. Like when humans first actually became humans (such as they were still evolving), or, if you're religious, God put them here and the time line went quick to basically Humans having civilization (nada, but believe what you want to believe). The truth is actually an analogy. God took a long time to develop the earth, it was done naturally by what science says, and it took a long time. Humans evolved over an incredibly long time. Yet, at some "time" in history the "story" of the garden of eden was real, to some degree.

Before the garden of eden and humans had evolved, My entity had been created for specific purposes; in fact there are a large number of us, created for all kinds of purposes. We're called Angels. Angels had been created by God for many, many things. People seem a bit confused about angels. There are all kinds of myths, legends, and ideas. Of course in today's world, an increasing number of people don't believe in God nor angels, they kinda can figure out how things were made and how the "universe" became. What is usually the problem, is that intelligent people have a tendency to over simplify things when they kinda understand the big picture. Time is the biggest problem. Not the length, yet how it is measured. Lifespan, humans are just now beginning to understand. One day they will be the master. If not for what went down in the garden of eden, they would have complete control over life now, there would not be death. Would Adam and Eve still be alive. Not as people, no, but your great grand parents probably would. Huh? You say. Keep that thought, let's move on.

God created angels first to live with people of the earth. In this realm, which is just the little universe you can see (yes I know you see a long ways) there are not so much "laws of physics" yet certain ways certain things work, tied in to alot of other things. Creation in this realm God made to be structured, yet wide open. Literally, there is free will amongst creation. The more intelligence involved, the more free will (don't get lost into politics, I'm not over there). Now, back to the garden of eden;

Angels were to administer Life unto humans here on earth. Be teachers, doctors so to speak. Yet angels have free will, like you do. We kinda do what we want to do in a way. Then, not now, though many of us will dispute that, but more on that in a bit. When I say "then" I meant that period when the garden of eden "story" took place. Everyone should have their religious texts opened to where it's talked about Adam and Eve. Adam and Eve could do what they wanted to, they were not however ready to be angels, they have a spirit, so yes they are angelic there, yet they still had much to learn. Like school, they were in, probably about 1st grade, with a ph'd being able to sustain themselves over vast regions of time and space, and to literally truly visualize, that is see, and be with, God. Now Adam and Eve weren't exactly evolved from Apes, at this "time" during the life of the earth, they would not really "die". Angels would take care of them, and God's creation, forever.

Like a family, angels have broods, kin folk. We are divided into families called Choirs. Each family has different traits, and gifts. Not "powers", so to speak, that is a whole 'nother science. Yet we have brothers and sisters (not all angels are both, nor either/or - it's complicated) whom like families have "traits" To help with taking care of God's Creations we also have duties. Some of us take care of things like the earth, some of us work on science such as music, and physics; some are soldiers, some are administrators of different systems (planetary systems, dimensional systems). We all have "some" of that, if it is related to our choir. Some of us, were created specifically as judges. None were created evil.

So back to eden. When living with early Humans our responsibility were to teach things slowly, like a fine master to their pupils. Sure if we wanted to show them how suns were made, cool, they're not going to understand though. Some things though, were classified, still are. Only when you're a senior do you get to study those things. Now, your species is about 9th grade (no pun intended), so you've still got a lot to learn. Not even approaching college yet. Yet we could give you the tests for your doctorate when Adam and Eve were here (free will), but that was forbidden because that would be stupid, they would not pass, plus, it would be negative because of the stress on them to try and know these things. Free will allowed us to break the rules, and some did. Another thing that was forbidden was sex with humans. Some did that too.

In those "fairy tales" somewhere it says something about apples and snakes. Literature by good writers is fascinating, isn't it? Remember the old image of the apple for the teacher? Remember that 'ol college boy past-time about feedin' his snake? Analogy, study the science well. Not just as a literary style; God uses it in the life sciences, and in physics too. Amazing. For real!

I'm not sure which religion you're using to follow this, if any at all. If you're using the Bible, Torah or the Koran somewhere in there, usually at a time "after" the beginning it will say something about angels living amongst the humans. I don't study religion or theology much so I can's tell you where you'll find this, I just know it's there. The end of the garden did not signify the end of this (angels and humans living together), for some time. Yet in the garden my brother and some of our kin folk had sex with humans, so in time we (the ones who didn't do this) were banished from the earth (because it was defiled and made "dirty"), being able to live side by side with humankind in numbers was destroyed. I wasn't "here" when it all went down (the defiling of humans), but had been here before, and this being God's first painting we could see and touch, I thought it was/is fantastically beautiful. It lived like nothing the Big Man had done before, and the potential! He says the humans were more like him than we were, so we were allowed to glimpse and partake of those gifts he gave the humans, and share ours with them. We were not human though, and my department was not the earth, then. It was however, my brother's.

At some point, I was told. Your brother is defiling the humans, teaching them things they need not know now and having sex with them all. God said he was putting an end to it and banishing us from the earth. Some of us came in with a posse and a fight got started, we had to call in the artillery (I think it talks about this in religious text books). Time here is key, this was ancient, yet the war is only now reaching a crescendo. This may be hard to understand, but at some point the angels of my choir who were causing so much trouble could no longer do what we wanted to do to an extent, this affected the good and the bad. Because my brother started some serious shit, my whole family had to be disciplined. We lost our place on earth, and since some had defiled the humans, the beauty of God's creation was sullied, not just in a small way, and he was pissed.

I stayed on with the Armies Of Heaven and studied tactics, and fought angels in other places who were causing darkness to rule, or trying to make it master. The Great Angelic Wars. I was of the light, as was my brother at one time (it was even literally, his name), yet I could not enjoy, see, or enter this realm, it was not my place, and my kind had lost it. God thought to destroy it, yet free will allowed things such as destruction, death, evil. God has his reasons, I cannot second guess that Spirit, yet he said let it go, see how it comes out. Not long ago, as the war winds down in other places. I got a call.

Go and check my original creation God told me. "Here you will find these things. Here you will find death, evil, and all that comes with it, and those angels that rule it. Here you will also find traces of My Love. It, this Realm Of Creation is ready for me to allow or deny. It was a cage for those of you who fought against Me. Yet it has retained it's beauty. There is much darkness there, and will be, for I sent it there. You see, do I give it to death or everlasting life. "

I knew He already knew what he was gonna do. He had His own reasons for sending me. I think about things but don't try and second guess His plans and motives. I didn't think it was my place to make decisions, and come to find out, that's not how it works. Probably a good thing for us all.

So it was time to go back and finish the job. It wouldn't be as cool as before because things, over time, were different. I was gonna sneak in and call the calvary if it was needed. There are many, many ways to make war though. So we might could do it like a quiet type of revolution. My brother is usually not quiet about his warring ways, unless he too is sneakin' in on you. God showed me the atomic explosions over the island of Japan. I had not been able to see history before. No I cried out, No! We had used something like that to create stars, to give Life. Now it was used to threaten and to cause death? I saw how the threat of death had been used to empower all kinds of crazy humans; twisted in so that what held that power of death would be "good"? I saw the whole damn world going crazy, with all types of madness. I did not understand.

I saw Christ on the Cross, I remember at times there being a tension in the Kingdom, now I understood. I had never felt shame. I broke down, and something new happened. Tears came to my eyes. What does it mean? What is this hot liquid in my eyes. I didn't feel like a proud warrior. I felt, weak, like I was dying, which was new to me. What is this? I pleaded with God.

You will find out. He told me. These are what your people have become. It scared me, and I didn't know what being scared meant, or felt like. No, I told him, we're not that. I got angry at the things that were being done in My Name.

"Remember the day you told your own you'd be back? When you shut this seal. Remember this?" God opened it and I looked in. I smiled. Yeah, there she was! That sun, those stars, that beautiful little blue marble. But....I couldn't believe it. There wasn't any Life on the other planets or on nearby stars, and the Life way out there didn't live with the humans.

Memories that had been locked away came flooding back. God showed me the prisons, the Word in court rooms used to fill those places. Things done by mad men in the name of god against innocent people. My brother smiling, on his throne, some kind of awful place. I saw strange religions that had Christ as an idol and people twisting the Word to make money and try to rule over people with. I saw that dark energy actually was greater than light; it was holding the fabric of space together. WTF I thought.

"Go Angel, reclaim this". I was told. "When it is done your service will be done with, and you shall have all Creation with Me; even though you shall never leave this place where I exist again, you shall be allowed again to flow throughout, like I do, and see and partake in all. You will reclaim your seal." I looked at the seal again. It was closed, and it looked like our original seal with the star surrounded by two circles, as it always had. God pointed at my chest.

That seal was a star too. It was different though. Then the stars became one, again, like in the beginning. I tried to remember what tears felt like, but all I could feel or remember was something else, like......Love. I felt that power. There is nothing else in all Creation, that feels like that. God's Love.

I could see the Lord there, with us, as a part of God. He handed me my Battle Staff, and it was like wood, yet like iron; He pointed. I bowed before the Holy One. Then that place was gone. I was going back to retake the homeland.

Hammer Down Motherfuckers.

The Walk

A friend I have known for a long time came by today; sad, depressed, the world had beaten him down. Come, let's take a walk I told him. I grabbed my staff and went out the door. His face sagged with defiance of will, his walk demurred, halting. The wind began to rise and as we entered the forest paths we could hear my neighbor's kid practicing guitar, echoing and soaring off the hills. "What is that," friend asked, "it's like the wind is bringing in voices of angels." I just smiled. We came to a clearing below a junction in the trails, his burden flowing through his voice, I offered counsel, to console my friend, in this place I don't look for the words, they are given to me. After 40 minutes or so we started back. The dark colors had left his face, the lines had eased up. "Hey man", he said, "I feel different, like a million bricks are off my back. It's like the colors are clearer, more vibrant now. What did you say you called this place?"

"Welcome my friend," I told him, "to New Jerusalem."

From the book: American Empire 2010

Didn't get to go to the employment office today, got a tire that won't hold air and without disassembling the entire wheel, is hell to get any air in. According to the dot number, it was manufactured in 1995!

I didn't want to chance the old Grand-Am with the bad engine mounts the 20+ miles to the employment center. Still, I had scavenged a little over a dollar in pennies and I needed to get Spike and I something to eat. So I drove it to the dollar store and found a cheap can of chili on clearance sale. I hoped it was fitting to eat!

I also found some old stale crackers I mixed in w/ Spike's food and some spoiled potato soup my sister had given me. Spike had more and ate better than I did that night!

After dinner I packed up my dishes in three medium sized bins and loaded them in the car. The hot water heater had quit again a couple of days after Dad and I fixed it in the old store building. So the only hot water on the property was up at my Mom and Dad's decrepit old trailer where they stayed whenever they were in town. It wasn't any fun toting all the dishes in the cold misting rain up to the trailer to wash, but to clean them it was the only choice........

At least it's not cold; the gas bill is too high!
From the book: American Empire 2010

Wanted to go to the grocery store today, but my take at the store was $3.75, and since I was out of gas, that would be gas, at least a gallon, but not much else for food. So I sloughed up to the trailer again, found a can of corned beef hash in the back of the cabinet behind the pinto beans and chicken broth. No date on the can but I know it had been in the back of the cabinet since before my sister had moved up, and that was over 5 years ago. So I guessed it was at least 6, maybe 7 years old. I warmed it up, mixing it with the last two eggs, and enough lettuce left to make a small salad, and even found some croûtons which were still firm, so that's what Spike and I had for dinner. The corned beef hash didn't taste too good, but I didn't get sick from eating it and Spike seemed to like it alright.

I had loaded my dishes up in a pan and brought them along with me, about three loads in all. I had been washing them in the store, since I hadn't had hot water in my studio for over 4 years now. I had managed to get the electricity in the studio fixed so I could run a hot water heater, but hadn't ever got up enough money to buy one. The store building next door has hot water, but I had to turn the water off because an outside faucet had broke during all our arctic below freezing temperatures we'd had the last two weeks. I didn't know about the faucet until I took the cover off to water my seedings in the lean-to I had converted into a sort of greenhouse and got soaked when the faucet came off with the cover.

At least it was warm today, otherwise the cold water hitting and soaking me would have made things that much worse. I didn't have much and the bills were piling up, and it was hard to see that I'd come up with enough to pay any of them, but Spike and I had a little dinner, and he licked his chops and put his little paw on my leg, so he was happy. In the end, at least today, that's all that mattered.....

Hopefully somehow I can find or borrow the parts to fix the pipe over the next day or two, because by then clothes would need to be washed.

It was almost like spring today....

I enjoyed walking the paths of the forest on a beautiful mid-winter day after clearing rocks and mulching in the new garden while singing the old spirituals. I felt very alive as I striped the cedar and cut the pine.....

2010-01-16T19:43:00.000-08:00

From the book: American Empire 2010

Wasn't much to eat, just some old canned goods. I didn't need much but poor Spike was whining from hunger and looking at me with those big sad eyes. So I threw on my old worn out chinese made jacket and braved the winter rain to go up to my parent's trailer, a brief distance away. They hadn't been there in a couple of weeks, but I hoped to maybe find something food wise still there.

I had hoped earlier today to pick up a job with a cover band that actually practiced less than 30 minutes away. After about an hour of sloshing through songs every 17 year old should know, my wrist was freezing up nothing but solid pain. So when they wanted to start playing their set of mostly down-tuned numbers, I said I never played like that and didn't want to mess up the locked in tuning on my floyd rose. That got some looks and was good enough to call the audition short. I cursed my injury and those and their system that deemed it to happen; I could sure use the money, even from a copy band, and be able to once again fool good about and be able to use skills I spent most of my life honing.

Up in the trailer I found a half pack of those cheap red hot dogs Muzz had bought to mix in with Spike's food. He'd love that, and to be honest I didn't mind them either for my supper under the circumstances. Lucked up and found some sweet and sour sauce in the fridge that was still good. I also found a bag of potato chips still crisp and some no-name hot sauce in the fridge. Wasn't much, but it beat nothing. A can of sweet corn also was to be had in the cabinet. The hot sauce and corn would be lunch tomorrow, or perhaps breakfast.

BOOK OF DIVINITY: QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS REPOSTED

I've put the questions and answers page back up for the Book Of Divinity. I'd taken it down a few years ago because people got carried away with the rudeness, hatefulness and hostility towards it. People have started asking genuine questions again, and showing up on location asking questions (that's both good and bad, for many reasons), so I felt it was time to put them back up, incl. most of the old ones and all the new ones over the past few years and months. Info is on the page too if you want to submit a questions.

Madhouse - Thanks For Nothing

Madhouse roar through like a liquored up biker on the last crusade, keeping the massive machine rolling with the grace and power of the apocalypse. Everyone in this band is a frontman (no shit, check the credits), blasting out classic Detroit Rock City hard rock like indeed there is no tomorrow. Vocalist Jamie Devoll has a growl that shows time in the trenches, he cuts through the thick wall of metallic bombast like the devil coming to preach the final sermon. What makes Madhouse stand out from the huge pack of riffsters making the scene is their reliance on keeping it simple, good melodies kept raw and mean, there's no pretty ballads or down tempo numbers. When they hit it big, like on set closer "Goin To Hell", or mid-album's "Everything Kills", you remember what it was about big beat driving rock n roll that made you love it in the first place, and you crank it a little louder.

Review - Wicked Influence

Usually the fantasy metal genre and it's symbolism stay lost on me from overexposure during those years of days lore which have passed mostly into memory. It was a pleasant surprise after seeing that symbolism invoked again, Lady Of Fire, King Arthur's Knights, Spell Of The Witch, to put the disc on and hear solid rock n roll, no screeching demons or prog noodling. Wicked Influence play what is now called old school melodic metal with those shifting riffs, lead guitars and charging rhythm that are it's hallmarks. I am sure this album will become one of those underground collectibles down the road; of 8 songs 6 are great, the other 2 aren't bad. Of course, this COULD be a band from the mid-80's, they sometimes sound like Tesla or Dokken did back in those days, which a dose of reinvigorates those memory cells from those great days! Through different members, the band is 20 years old for real, and their smooth execution is surely a result. If you're into classic hard rock and metal, this is your band. www.myspace.com/wickedinfluencemusic

YOU MUST PAY!

There is a disturbing clause in this health-care bill that is going to cause problems. You can say yeah, there are many of those in there, but think about this...

If you don't have insurance and don't "buy" the government's, you will be fined $750 (or whatever they want to say you owe based on your income).

Excuse me? I do not have to buy into your "system", or buy your insurance, even if I don't have my own. You already require it of me in the form of medicare taxes, which I cannot even use. This new "thing" is different than a tax, it is a fine and a form of prosecution, which you will TAKE from me, if I don't pay you first. So I can have something you say I MUST have.

Sorry, I do not OWE you. You take from me every time I buy anything; now you will MAKE me buy something? No.

I am poor, perhaps I cannot afford your "HEALTH-CARE". So you fine me? Use the force of LAW to prosecute me for not paying this and then require it, plus "fines"?

You can go to hell too.

No high powered over priced brew to be sold in Georgia, lawmakers say....

http://www.wsbtv.com/news/21758162/detail.html

The righteous say that's the devil's brew (kin to the devil's weed), that 20% and above beer is just drug abuse disguised (some of 'em's highway robbery they say too, at over $100 a bottle) and that "moderate" states like jawger, er, Georgia (it's on that there seal) have a moral obligation to stop this evil at the state line. Many lawmakers expressed these and other "blue law" concerns when approached by the Underground to comment on the lack of updating the law to allow for the new high-alcohol brewskis to be sold in the state.

Kinda reminds me of the time lawmakers in Georgia were approached and asked why they didn't support Sunday packaged sales of alcohol. One in particular (who is still lawmakin' and bringin home the bucks) stood out when he got angry when somebody said having no sales on Sunday based on Christian beliefs is discrimination because this person was Jewish and the State allowed sales on their Sabbath, which is a different day from the Christian Sabbath, and that actually having laws based on religion was against the US Constitution. After much ranting and raving about morals, this lawmaker actually said Jesus would support the Georgia law, including the Sabbath references, and By God Jesus would never be against the US Constitution.

In the same incident the same lawmaker got really riled when another individual said if they were so righteous about alcohol, why didn't the State fix it's laws that prohibit hemp growing and usage, which is a plant created by God. The lawmaker actually said (real quote) - "Marijuana is dope, and God, the father of Jesus, would never create dope."

So let's see, that means..........who created that now? Oh right, that 'ol devil.

So we have a place where they disallow alcohol sales based on a religious belief, which just happens to be unconstitutional (the law in the United States literally cannot be based on religion), but something that is allowed in their "religion", use of all God's seed bearing plants in their natural forms (it's in that there book they're always hollerin' 'bout even), is against their laws?

Honestly, that is a royal bunch of horseshit. Grow up Georgia.. You're not moderate or moral, just another layer of fiefdom trying to control people's lives.

Have a drink (but don't on Sunday, you might get in trouble with the Chief), but no stronger a drink than maybe 18% alkeehawl, or you's might lose yer morals and inhibitions, and think about it.

Dang 'ol boys might have something there.

Praise the lord and git me a nother beer hon.......

OBAMA: Troop decision still weeks away

It's being reported that President Obama is still weeks away from a decision on how many troops he is going to send to war in Afghanistan and when. Let me make a few things clear about war.

Your nation is failing in both Afghanistan and Iraq as far as making those countries stable enough for the US NOT to have to baby sit and "protect" those peoples and those governments; by a conservative estimate, it will take 12-15 years at an ELEVATED level of troop and financial/infrastructure support supplied by the US above today's levels to get anywhere near those countries being stable, and then there are so many factors even then you might be looking at another decade above that at extended, elevated levels to prop up those countries so that they can NOT have civil wars when, and if, we leave. It's a bigger mess than armies and throwing the US citizen's tax monies away can correct.

We have heard the general wants 40K more troops. Sorry, that is way too small. You will need 250,000 + to get the job done. Your troops will probably not get even the 40K asked for. And for Christ's sakes, how many months now has the troops been asking and waiting for this additional 40K? Instead of touring Asia and spending hundreds of millions of your money to play the cool breeze and seemingly "chat-up" those governments about "economics and environments", your President needs to take care of his business at home,; your economy is NOT recovering in a way to last, that health care bill is a farce (no dental, dermatology, or eye-care involved? It is half-assed at best). While the governments have paid themselves, their big-business cronies (too big to fail brother!) and other nations well, the pitiful programs for small business to TRY and get loans does not work, and there is no program or plan on the horizon to fix that. Another massive failure awaits, if it happens soon enough and within certain parameters, your systems will fail.

He did say Pakistan needs to clean up their mess. Well since that is where the remnants of those who stuck us are at, it is well past time to frankly tell them, you get them, or we do. If that means going in there to get them, you do that, and you tell Pakistan so, guarantee that will set a larger fire under their tails. You do not fight wars half-assed; give your armies enough troops and support, finish your jobs. The US does not have the means nor finances to "nation-build" nor take care of other nations as welfare states. Time to get over the rhetoric of "the last super-power". No, you don't have the abilities to run / develop other nations, you can hardly run your own.

Finally, if you're asking why i say "your" President and "your" nation, and not "My". True I am a US citizen and of the West, yet my nation IS the SUPERPOWER. It is called The Kingdom Of God. I don't think I need to tell you who MY President is. Judgment is many phases, and it is happening. Time to put the rhetoric, ideology, and pie-in-the-sky dreams away. Win your war against those who struck you. Realize there will be civil wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and YES, even though ultimately your failed political actions makes the US in a large way responsible, you're not responsible for either the Afghans nor Iraqis, and when those wars happen, NO, you'll not be able to stop them or win them for either side, at least not without the help of many, many, other nations (think WWII). You'll have to deal with those consequences.

First, give your troops the numbers they need to win this war, or get out.

World Council Discussions - National Pensions

The World Council will have open meetings throughout the remainder of 2009 to discuss the overview and specifics of implementation of National Pension Programs for the Nations that will be published in The Way during 2010. The dates for the meetings for the Americas are 11/08, 11/14 and 12/11 in the North Georgia region.

National Pension programs are designed to provide individual persons and families savings for retirement and/ or disability through open systematic payments made through tithes produced from commerce. A National Pension uses that percentage applied to an account for the individual or family which begins at birth and draws specific interest rates which is applied to the account. At certain levels the accrued monies may be used for short loans, with interest, by selected financial institutions. Short meaning less than 90-days, which at time escrow must be held in the Master Account to cover all borrowed NPF (national pension funds) to sustain the borrowed on account's liquidity. This allows financial growth, at no risk, which in turn supplies the National Pension, and adds interest to the individual or family NPF.

The interest drew from borrowing against the specific NPF, would be divided evenly to the holder of the NPF, and to the Designated Fund, which means basically the government gets that percentage for it's purposes. At Need, which means the individual retires or becomes disabled, they can withdraw, at certain levels, some of all of their money from their NPF. These funds cannot be taxed nor a fee placed on, since it has been available for Specifics (use) during the time it was held for the individual. It is the individual's, not the state's or system's pension fund.

Things such as the NPF are designed through The Way to help free the populace from an imposed system of tax and judgment on the individual, the family, and their property; and allows the continued involvement of the economic systems to support the populace and needs of governmental systems, instead of requiring the individual and the family to be forced to fund the government through homage (taxations and fees). A National Pension Fund is but one small means through The Way, that this can be achieved.

These things of The Way are beginning to be revealed now as time approaches and people can begin to see how now the systems imposed are not self-sustaining, but rather draining of the nations and on the people, meaning the price of things will always go up, you can never actually be FREE, because you will always be in many ways a slave to a type of system which people are beginning to recognize; which in time knowledge will reveal as an inanimate system, and historically will be shown to be a Beast.

Yes, I mean THE BEAST.....and it is not just one thing, person, or peoples, they are systems, which feed off of you, and while some good seemingly is offered, bottom line is they do not lend to freedom and sustainment of the world, but rather a prolonged decline and slavery of the persons of The Kingdom Of God. It's rather slick, but not so complicated, just hard for people to recognize. It must be fed by your means and efforts constantly, controls your economies, and owns you, and your lands. The Way, is part of The Word, which can free you and your nations from this beast.

The Way offers means to control this type of inanimate system, and have it under your control, and have it work for you; not, as is now, the other way around. It'll take time and patience, but most of all knowledge, to see how all this works. Most of the results of the meetings and conferences to discuss The Way will be made available online.

Two mixes from pre-mastering that used to be on the Wrong Crowd website on Angelfire. This is my band from 1987.
Introvert time - http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/7/23/1288197/Introvert%20time.mp3
Lap Dog - http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/7/23/1288197/Lap%20Dog%20Of%20The%20Devil.mp3

these are off a demo dubber and are not from the master that was released. The mixes are different, and there is a bit of distortion in the subs.

Why taxing hemp will not work

Taxing is not the answer, and further down the road this idea that the government controls the growing of hemp for revenue purposes will keep cartels in business, because more than likely your retarded leaders will make the taxes and fees too high for the poor, who will continue to buy it illegally. Have some common sense about this people. A federal license to grow your own, say at a rate of about $300 for so many plants would allow people of any income level to have themselves a garden and effectively destroy the illegal-hemp business. Not some big huge multi-thousand dollar mess which will make the rich the only ones who can get into the "growing business". Hemp is already legal through THE WORD as stated in the BOOK OF DIVINITY (http://www.angelfire.com/ca/wtw/book1.html), and it doesn't mean the government can charge some outrageous fees for a right that is already yours, given by God.

To close, I'd like to address the perpetual investigation that has existed for over a decade now, where I'm "looked" at in hopes of finding me growing hemp in the Herb Gardens of New Jerusalem, or selling it in my little country store, or doing something illegal concerning "drugs". Listen you stupid fuckers, I don't grow or sell pot, never had and don't believe in it. Just because I advocate common sense and freedom as THE WORD gives us (not just the Book Of Divinity, early in the Bible it states something about plants being for our use, look in Genesis) that does not mean, at all, that you can continuously investigate me for something to do with drugs that does not exist. Freedom Of Speech allows me to state whenever I want that your policies are wrong, and that does not either give rights for a perpetual investigation. It used to be, I just looked at it like you people are stupid, now, obviously it has gone on so long I consider it threatening, and potentially violent, because there is nothing going on, and after 10 years if you can't understand that, then yes you ARE FUCKING IDIOTS. The next time you fly helicopters or airplanes over sacred land, meaning my herb gardens, looking for pot that does not, and has not ever, existed, I will take it as acts of war against me, since this is part of your "war". I don't want anything to do with your crazy, stupid, wars? Do you understand? Same thing goes for all these people who come into my store looking for pot, or something illegal. I grow medicinal herbs to help people, I don't grow intoxicants to sell to folks to get high. Still, I have the right to state that hemp should be legal, even if I don't grow it now. Hopefully all you dumb-asses understand this, because you have dug yourself a hole in which you're playing a dangerous game, and I don't play these kinds of stupid games.

Give a license to people to grow small amounts of hemp, and that part of your "drug" problem will almost go away. Try to create an "industry" by charing outrageous fees and taxes, and you will fail, again.

LIFE PROGRAMMING SEMINARS

In 2010 New Jerusalem will host a series of seminars focused on the Virtual Self, which is the extension of Life through biomachina (biological machines). Included in the seminars will be forums on:

Life Programing, which is the maturation and extension of machine code to enable computerized machines to interact, support and nurture biological life forms

Conscious Extensions, which is data streaming via light, chemistry and subspace routines, allowing connections to form outside the body and any particular time/space continuum (visualize having realization in near real time across vast distances)

The Way, which is a system of law, both theoretical and idealogical, developed to allow positive aspects to increase and flourish

These three main topics will include numerous sublets and discussion panels. A prime focus of the seminars will be to relate how the Virtual Self comes through Divinity, and how and why it is a gift to Humankind. Preliminary and in-depth conversations will focus not on theology, but rather practical and obtainable applications using Life Programming to construct the Virtual Self.

Anyone wishing to attend these seminars must contact me in writing for exact dates and locations. I will not accept email reservations or inquiry, and do not give further information via telecommunications. Please include your real name, and contact information such as physical address and telephone number in your letter. Letters without contact information other than a return address via envelope will be discarded. If you are a member of, or representative of a particular group, governing body or agency, please use official letterhead in your letter.

JUDAS PRIEST - LIVE IN ALPHARETTA August 20th, 2009

The last couple of years I've seen a half dozen of my old favorite bands, and they all were worse for wear. All still sounded great, but that "magic" was mostly gone. Not going to get into who, but if you know me you know who......

Cruising towards the Verizon Amphitheater last night I wondered if Judas Priest would suffer the same fate. It'd been a few years since I'd seen them, last time they were about as good as ever, it not a legacy act. It was hot as hell that night, weather wise, and everyone was about to pass out. It was hot again this year, raining and humidity so thick you could cut it with a dull knife. I wondered if the heat would be a factor in the intensity of the performance.

This concert venue is built well, having a grass knoll after the covered seats and angled pavilions built open faced on the sides that make the sound deflect nicely for a warm sound. The thing is, this place is in the middle of a sprawling neighborhood; houses, town homes, apartments. There are no noise ordinances per se that befall similar Atlanta open stages like Chastain Park, though I suspect there probably was a time curfew (more on that later).

We pulled onto the street leading into the venue complex, and right in front of us was the big gray dog, carrying the band it has been rumored, right there in front of us, spewing smoke and gliding up the tree lined avenue, right between the town homes and apartment buildings.

So it was weird going to see one of the world's greatest metal bands in the middle of all these households, a nod to how suburban sprawl has created strange bed fellows. I'd copped the 12 of Killian, saving a couple of bucks off by getting two sixes instead of the one packaged 12 (oversight can be good sometime), and I didn't have to wait long, the opening act was half over by the time we got there.

Judas Priest shot straight out of the gate with "Rapid Fire" and proceeded to play all of British Steel as part of that album's 30th anniversary. The band had beautiful high intensity stage lighting and rotated huge backdrops behind the drummer throughout the set. As always, the sound was tight, loud, and heavy. After all these years, going on 40, the band has putting on a show down to a science. Judas Priest always has and I believe always will been one of the most consistent good shows for your money. August 20th, 2009 would be no different.

The complete play through of British Steel was a true fan's treat, and afterwards the band made the choice of playing rarer gems from their astounding back catalog. They also did Prophecy from their last studio album, Nostradamus, which surprisingly fit in well with the night's eclectic choice of set list. Of course you weren't getting out of the concert without hearing "Victim Of Changes", but tonight it blazed, and you had to understand why it is a metal classic, even if it's one of those songs you wish the band would change out because they do it EVERY year. When they did stuff like "Hell Patrol", which they haven't been playing the last 10 years though, it makes up for it.

The guys do show their age a bit, but considering Glenn Tipton will be 62 this year, and everyone else except Scott Travis (he's in his late 40's) is almost 60. Yeah, for pensioners they still bring it. Rob Halford retains a fantastic voice, one that kids (people under 40) of all ages would love to even have half the power of; and he did not hesitate to show his mastery of it over and over tonight. The band plays as tight, maybe even moreso, than ever. On August 20th they gathered up something specials inside themselves, and delivered it onstage, I'd say nothing was held back.

I am sure there were time restraints on the length of the show, because you could tell the band was really just warming up as the final half dozen songs ripped by after Rob brought out the bike to kick off Freewheel Burning. You've Got Another Thing Coming was maybe the most jumpy I'd ever heard it (as opposed to smooth) and thinking back now they were probably trying to hump it through to do another song or two before the govnas shut them down for the evening.

Despite a show probably having close to an hour shaved because of this, Judas Priest delivered their best in the time they had on the stage in a place somewhere near Atlanta. I was lucky to have been there. It was great to hear, and see, that the band carries the metal flag high, and carries on. True Keepers and Defenders of The Faith. The Magic remains.

Rock on!

DARKENING SKIES
from Angel Of War soundtrack

At this point in the script, Lucifer is being cast out after angels under him have been having sex and children with women of the earth (Genesis 6). This scene is the casting out and separation from the Archangelic Order, and a warning that even the devil will have to face judgment day......

So as it is:

Now in Stock at Kingdom Farms:

Sheep Sorrel
Slippery Elm Bark
Burdock Root
Turkish Rhubarb Root

Herbs: http://www.angelfire.com/ca/wtw

The above herbs are used in a mix known to the ancients as "Root Tonic". It has been used for centuries in treating the following: Advanced and intermediate types of cancer, both internal and for skin, healing of soft tissue lesions, digestive stimulation and stool softener (weight maintenance), fatigue and low energy levels, weak immunity syndrome, high blood pressure, erectile dysfunction, blood purification, kidney stones & diuretic cleansing.

Over time there have been many "doctors" and "practitioners" who have used the above herbs in a root tonic or tea mix and claimed the resulting medicines were their own creations. Bur Oil as a product is very popular in parts of Europe. Some have even tried to patent various mixtures (essiac tea, used in Canada as a legal cancer treatment). From my experience, a decoction is the best way to blend these herbs. A simple recipe follows:

Anti-Cancer Decoction (Root Tonic, also known as West's Anti Cancer #2)

1 part Sheep Sorrel (whole herb)
1/4 part Turkish Rhubarb Root
1 part Slippery Elm Bark
2 parts Burdock root

Mix all the ingredients together in either a pyrex or stainless steel boiler. DO NOT USE ALUMINUM, TEFLON COATED, IRON OR COPPER boilers because the herbal mixture leeches metals and impurities from these metals. Cover your mixture with 3 inches of water (level above the herbs when soaked) and boil hard for 15 minutes. Let cool until temperature is low enough to pour into non-leaded glass jars. Let sit at room temperature uncovered for 1-2 hours. Cover and set in refrigeration for at least 4 hours (the idea time before initial pour is 12 hours).

Mostly, this decoction is used as an additive to other drinks or unsugared coffee. It will have a very dark brown - almost black color with a sheen (silvery, like a clear coating). This viscosity is caused by the Slippery Elm Bark inclusion. I don't strain off the mix, but pour off the top and use the dregs for skin cancer applications and poultices. It will keep refrigerated up to three weeks, though drink ability decreases significantly over time after three days. Your finished decoction will have a deep, rich roasted smell, with a hint of sweet earth. It is very strong and most people cannot drink the decoction by itself, instead using it as an additive to other drinks.

After about a day, the Decoction will have a layer of oil at the top. Many herbologists say this is the strongest part, and the pharmaceutical industry uses this top layer to make injectibles used in cancer treatments.

DO NOT use more than 1 liter of decoction in a week's time. This is a strong, potent medicine, and your body must get used to it, otherwise you can get over stimulation and possible kidney pains caused by using too much in a short span of time.. Generally, small amounts are used frequently, though I have used up to a half liter a day of it during tests with little side effect other than lack of fatigue which would encourage sleep. Sleep seemed to be normal and actually very relaxing when taking this Decoction over a period of time however, and I found this recipe to be excellent at lowering my own blood pressure without the side effects such as foxglove gives.

Raw herbs can be purchased from Kingdom Farms

Note: When collecting in the wild, many people mistake Milk Thistles for Burdock. Burdock does not have thorns on its wider, smoother lower leaves when it is young.

Future Plant - Future Plant

Tripping through waves of blended emotional surmise, extending smooth jazz throughout the disc, I found the r&b fanning contemporary funkness, straight outta Hungary. The overwhelming feel is similar to the backside of the 70's. Carpenter's maybe? Na, let's be nice. There is a definite Billy Preston undertone here; as much so the finer points even make their Abba Name Of The Game cover slightly slick and listenable. Our Urban stations here in the US, and what are called "lite rock" radio shows, or "stormy night" programming, can find plenty here to play. I see where the band is playing out and getting noticed in their own country. For fans of this style of pop music, everywhere is probably taking note as time passes as well.....contact: http://www.futureplant.info

Arrival - Que Asi Sea

Singing in a foreign language can throw you off if you don't know that language. I've often thought about that all these years when foreign bands sing in Anglish. I would think, they know it well enough to sing it, I can barely follow theirs. Even today I don't know if that pointed at the time to still felt after effects of WWII, or the laziness of most of my people to learn other languages. Arrival from Argentina sing in Spanish, but most of all they perform in the universal language, music. While their highly melodic metal was perfected in Europe, the Latin American marks here are reflective and bold. Epic, tightly executed metal, tonally precise vocalings, and plenty of classic hard rock riffage does this band make. Their take on Deep Purple's Burn is like a shot out of the blue, I probably hadn't listened to that song in 10 years, and I used to wear Purple albums out. The other three songs on the EP show this is indeed a good metal band with much potential. For a full length, a bit more off the known metal path might serve them well. However they come, Arrival are gaining some name in the world. This first release after their 2006 demo, shows the band growing and getting strong.

I sent this to the editors of Newsweek in response to their article in the April 13th issue of their magazine about the end of Christian America.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Jon Meacham's piece about the state of Christian religion in America was interesting. I for one welcome the degrading of "religion" in politics and overall society. However, people get "religion" confused with "God". Let me assure you, as his messenger, God's plan is advancing, and it includes the disbanding to a large degree of religious and overbearing political powers. God, not religion, is coming more to the forefront, though at this time you'd never know, and events in the past few years are not just the failure of humans and their systems. No, it is much, much deeper and serious than that, or what your preacher, rabbi, or whatever, understands.

God is not a Christian, Muslim, Jew, Hindu, or otherwise. Those religions may claim some part of a relationship with God, but they do not in any way define what God is, or is not. Religion is the bane of humankind.

Let me assure you of this, any nation that turns it's back on God, tries to control and regulate what it does not even understand, will not last. So, even though the Christian religion may be weakening, the Creator of this System is more in control than you'd ever believe, or want to know. Keep that in mind, for it is the Truth. Believe me, it matters not so much what religion or belief you have, rather I tell you best not to spit on God, for if you, as an individual, or a nation, do it, he will crush you, and smash you to pieces.

Come sometime, and walk with me in the Sacred Herb Gardens of New Jerusalem. There, you will feel his power, irregardless of any religion, or atheist tendency. New Jerusalem is located in Northwest Georgia.

GREAT TAX BREAK!!

Part of this trillion dollar stimulus we here in the US are paying for to enable our kings and queens to continue their raping of the populace in order to sustain their life of fortune and fame (full insurance, nice pension, great benes and perks, above avg. pay, power to enslave and kill - monarch kinda things), includes a "tax" cut where the individual will be able to "save" an average of $13 per month and the family of four $65 on their blood money requirement, er, taxes. WOW. OMG ARE WE FUCKIN' ROLLIN' NOW!

This on top of a massive government spending binge supposedly to "create" millions of jobs. When that money is gone and shit is still an overwhelming mess (or at the best "gliding" along to "recovery"), guess who will fund the next party for the people?

The sheen of "change" is wearing thin quick.

Wake up, time for the citizens to demand their money back. This dog and pony show isn't worth a dime.

SPIKE RUNS AWAY!

He tests me every day, that Alpha-Omega thing. Those eyes, one blue, one brown, they fire just right when he's on a roll. It is not a time to be weak, he will walk all over you, and he doesn't forget.

What you got? Flesh and bone? He's got those choppers, those paws that got claws. You got size, he's got brute force. He's 8 weeks old.

I never liked to leash a dog, let them run free I'd say. Siberian Husky and American Bulldog mix, whatever? Yeah, whatever.

He was on the edge of the woods. "Spike!" I said, "come in here". He snorted and galloped off into the deep woods. Where 3 inch saw briers climbed, combining with Blackberry vines. A place I could not go.

"Spike!"

He ran on deeper, faster. Over the mountain. Not saying a word, just getting outta sight and streamlining the getaway, he was like greased lightning on the hot rails, he was outta here!

It was about noon. Though a good 100 square yards of thick woods were the place, on almost every side there were residences and subdivisions. I cruised them all, saying since he was a puppy he'd take up with somebody. Knowing he was probably way in those woods, having adventure casserole; with coyotes, wild dogs, poisonous snakes and the lot coming out in this 70 degree temp. But I didn't worry.

About dark, after being out whistling and calling and getting all the canines in the neighborhood barking, I'd hit the 6 hour hunt check in. It wasn't good. Spike was gone!

As the sun faded, I called my sister. Her place was the last vicinity he'd been spotted at, a 2 foot rat running though the underbrush. I told her to keep an eye out, seemed like I'd heard his yelp way back in the woods, over the hill, into the brambles when I'd been out relating the situation via sound waves. She liked the little guy, I knew she'd make a holler or two before bedtime.

I collected his little supplies of toys, and knotted rags, the poor man's gel bone, his favorite blanket he liked to trash, tomorrow I'd throw them into the burn pit. I couldn't stand the smell, his own scent, different for every animal, hanging around if their benefactor wasn't connecting.

I felt like Timmy in that movie Lassie Come Home. 'cept Lassie wasn't vaulting over the ridge. I wanted to believe Spike was beginning his new life with the kids up in the neighborhood, but still I couldn't shake the mental image of him in the brush pile by the side of the path, laughing his ass off while he snoozed and alternated between pooping, peeing, and sleeping, the usual 8 week dog stuff sans USA 2009.

15 minutes later, she called and said she had him. My sister had went out to smoke a cigarette, started calling his name. The spirit did appear. As a very scared little dog who had been out there all day, in the tangled thorns of trinity. Eat Sleep Play replaced with Fear Move Access, the soldier's creed.

Or had he been watching, waiting till "he" was ready.

Never underestimate the dog.

FIRE OF CREATION - album version available:
A mastered version of FIRE OF CREATION from the Bootlegger album 200 Proof is now up on the Snocap store. I removed the live version that used to be there, which you can still find on my Podsafe free songs page link. I had wanted to do another mix of the song, and had put this version back, but when deciding on what to master in the latest day of studio work, I re listened to this version and decided I had spent enough time on it, and with albums full of work in front of me, just decided to let it fly as-is.

Bootlegger:

Myself - guitars and vocals
Ken Story - Drums
The Gore - Bass

For a limited time, you can download this MP3 album version of FIRE OF CREATION free by using the following link:

Lyrics:

Fire Of Creation

Now before me, the dreams of my youth
My creation, is the proof!

Fire Of Creation

The breathless beauty, sweet!
Satisfaction.
Fire n passion, it is
Gods gift!

Out of control, it is
My rock n roll!

Forming 30th Anniversary Band - SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY!!

I'm putting a band together to do some shows and recordings over the next year to celebrate 30 years since I first starting playing in bands and promoting rock n roll. I need the full cup - drummer, bass player and 2nd guitar player, then if I can find those I'd like to get a synth master. I'm NOT going to be the lead singer, so someone will have to be able to sing for real; screaming and hollerin' I've got covered.

First, this is not a "playing-the-past" group. We will do maybe a few of my older songs first since those are the easiest to nail down, at least for me and to get a song list to gig on. NO COVERS, DON'T ASK, until we have a set or two of our own stuff, then maybe, if we want to do that circuit to make $$. My older stuff is readily free to listen to by following links on my profiles. It will be the band stuff though, some of the experimental solo stuff might make it in, but primarily the power-trio kinda stuff I've done over the years. So you have to be ok playing that really nasty, gritty punk metal that are those songs. Moreso though, we'll do up new music for new recordings, and those sings will make up the majority of what we do and practice. Don't know what that will be, we will write this stuff, or, even if it is older stuff, it won't be stuff I've recorded before.

Second, I practice and have a studio in Northwest GA. I appreciate people from all over the world contacting me about the band, but unless you now live in or relocate to Northwest GA, this isn't your band. If you do want to relocate, I have a place to stay, free of charge.

Third, you won't have time to play in other bands or do other projects until we're playing out and after a first round of recording. Why? We'll practice 4-5 times a week, and as soon as possible play out as much as possible, and be recording the new stuff in-between. So realistically you won't have time for other projects for a while. This has caused serious problems with really good bands I've had in the past, members of the group wanting to be everything to everybody. I know some people believe they are superman, but this band will take most of your time, and dedication is a must.

Fourth, really there are no "rules". I hate that shit, but I do ask if you have to do "other things", like raise kids, be up your bf/gf's butt, work a full time job (that you'd never quit), stay fucked up on whatever, or deal with your personal demons; this probably isn't your band either. Leave the drama behind in your past life.

Fifth, finding gigs is NOT the problem, even good paying gigs, but if you to have "x" amount of dollars to perform, maybe porno is a better bet for you than a rock n roll band. I will play ANYWHERE to start with, and even though this is a 30th anniversary band, if you have a problem with playing house parties, comp gigs and benefits, I hear Led Zeppelin is hiring.

If you wanna rock, holler.

AVOLITION - IDES OF MARCH / OOPS! DELETED TEMP FILES

Los Angeles band Avolition's two demo's compiled into one here show the band constructing a solid base of garage over which to strut their neo-punk gander. Be it even though they start out smoothly gliding along the back path with "pride", the dissonant minor is only a thought away. The giddy-up goes quite magnificently at times, probably mottled in the curse. West Coast wanking it may seem, still relations are quite hyperbolic, definite sun-rise jam. Even as the moon comes up. Beautiful disaster. Contact: www.myspace.com/avolitionband

DRAGONWYCK - BORN INTO MADNESS

This band keep the proven fires of top-notch metal coming out of Ohio alive and fierce. Dragonwyck give kudos to all the past and future greats - Ozzy, Testament, Alice in Chains, Metallica - taking quess from these bands styles and giving us solid, heavy, introspective songs, screaming leads, with battle tank perfection. Classic heavy metal blasts from songs like Things Remembered, which recalls the genre's heyday era, and songs like Empty, which takes a huge riff and layers melodic vocals, masterfully, over the top. The band is made strong by the knowledge of metal's fabric by the individual players, working seamlessly like a well oiled machine. Mosts songs have three or more parts, something the best true metal always has (this usually separates it from alternametal, which leans more towards pop), which Metallica recently rediscovered on their new album. There is a chance Dragonwyck could be holding themselves back a tad with so much emulation, just a tad more progression would do them well. You can glimpse that in the band's arrangement on Neurotica, it gives a good direction. Overall it's a great ride throughout Born Into Madness, somewhere, Layne Stayley is smiling.

APOLLO - THIS IS MY TOWN

I'm immediately taken into a world back in time when Petty and Henley ruled the radio, then the next tune sounds like something off the Eagles In The Long Run. Retro doesn't necessarily make a band that lives in the past though, Apollo's 11 song cd is thoroughly enjoyable listening wise, with compact, tight song structures, great guitar work throughout and good vocal work. It is hard to get above the obvious lift from The Edge on songs like "Forget It", which could be that band from Ireland, if the singing didn't give it away. Apollo being an English band, I suppose it's in the genes somewhere. Maybe that's not a bad thing, yet when Hendrix shows up with the opening riff to "Lay Dormant", you start to wonder if more parts of the picture couldn't have been more the band's own, which would probably have served them well. That notwithstanding, their fan base seems to be in a grown spurt. Contact: Damage Productions Limited http://www.damagemanmage.com

WILL BLACK - DANCING WITH THE DEAD

Perhaps not everyone's cup of tea if they've never experienced great original music that is the sum of parts of so many things classic, so retro yet original and refreshing to deserve the credit bestowed upon it. You can hear traditional rock here - Faraway - proudly displayed, making for a fine mix of listening enjoyment. His sense of riff shows in almost all his songs - listen to the parts to Senorita Ballerina...... Will Black has no problem with taking the best parts of lyrical songwriting, in it's own special simplicity, and combining it with nice melody, chorus, and powerchord, to create great pop (for the kids, pop music is rock music intensified through the chorus, choice of phrasing, and melodic theme) . He has a definite Americana sound, which calls back to Born To Run Springsteen, or the better Jackson Brown. He does well with letting the guitar lead in most of his compositions. Honestly, this is the first I've heard of this artist, and it's very impressive. He needs the prefect rocker to set it off. Contact: WillBlack.com

BEYOND AGONY - LOADED PISTOL cd single

CD single from a new album which I am yet to hear in its completed form. This cd single though shows the band keeping it modern metal thickness, and possibly extending the full member into a contender. Their previous EP a couple of years ago, The Last of a Dying Breed, was compresso fantastico! This time around with the new stuff, Loaded Pistol pulls the trigger and One Day Closer has the rough interior of leaded glass, like the metal that leeches outta your pipes, it's undeniable. Crank it up! Contact: http://beyondagony.com
