Update

Well I wrote my first song. It was for my girlfriend but she dumped me before I could show it to her. I honestly don't think its all that great considering I didn't really put forth the effort in it. I more or less rushed through to get the song done. Anyways, I'm still working hard on songs that I'm writing for myself for my own enjoyment. I honestly don't when or if they will ever get done. Writers block sucks.

Peral Jam

Not going to lie, but I never really listened to Pearl Jam before. After seeing the documentary I have to say that Pearl Jam is actually a pretty good band. I never really listened to grunge music but after hearing some of Nirvana and Pearl Jam I've come to like the genera. Grunge has that heavy sound and distorted guitars, and melodic sound that I like in all my music. I have to say the documentary really opened up grunge to me.

Punk

I like some punk music. mostly the heavier stuff like the Missfits and so on. I'm not a huge fan of punk, as I like a little more technicality in my music instead of just hitting the same 3 chords over and over. However I do respect the idea behind punk.

Update

I have been listening to a lot of Wolves in the Throne Room. They are a pretty good American black metal band. I really want to see them live but they always play at like random farms and never come to Austin. I've also been playing a lot of guitar, I found a bunch of old recordings of some song ideas i had back in my sophomore year, and now I'm working on finishing them.

Burzum

Burzum is one of my all time favorite black metal bands. I really like how Burzum is a one man band, with Varg Vikernes playing all of the instruments. Varg inspired me to get an eight track and record my own one man project(I do not find him Inspiron because of his bro nazis in and murders. Look it up). I seem to notice that all the great black metal musicians have to be psychopaths of one sort or another.

Movie

I enjoyed the movie we watched I'm class. All of the guitarists that were in the film were pretty talented. Although Jack White seemed a little to hipster, even for a musician. I related to when they said how much it sucks when you reach a blank when writing a song. It happens to me all the time.

Gorgoroth

I am currently listening to one of my favorite black metal bands Gorgoroth. Gorgoroth is one of the bigger Norwegian black metal bands. Their former lead singer And personally my favorite lead singer Gaahl was a homosexual psychopath who tortured a man, forcing him to daring a cup of his own blood, claiming he did it in self defence(by the way I do not like him because of his crazy ways). My favorite album would have to Ad Majorem Sathanas Gloriam, I'd reccomend giving it a listen.
