WAR IS OVER, SO ARE YOU, OLIVER

YES, I AM USING CAPS AND THE BEAUTIFUL DVORAK LAYOUT

That reminds me - I have rediscovered Tool - their first album is (the) shit.

I was told that there is more than one of me inside me.

I have recently turned 16.

I thought I was 16 before.

I understood that I'm turning 16 two days ago.

I understood that each sentance that starts with "I" is egotistical.

Everything that is moral is not always ethical.

Hysterical chimpanzees don't see any sense, only ucae.

I might perform sometime soon!

I might perform sometime soon AGAIN!

Gerda's acquaintance, Kaspars, is a good guitarist.

If I were to stab Roland, he'd leave an actual bloodbath.

I sort of envy him.

I have more enemies than I am anenemy to others.

D major, F major, C major, D major.

Kipurnaxibof™.

1000mods - Liquid Sleep.

If I were to become a scientist, I would entertain the public; they love atheist jokes. Especially, Mr. B.

Oh, my gawwwd....

Not everything that is moral is aesthetical.

Die in a pit of fire.

Dogs are flaming real estate agents.

Crocodiles deserve the chance to read Dante's Inferno, so do power tools.

If you read this this far, might as well read the remaining 238 characters.

This blog is Untitled Slimy Ale.

Check the abbrevation.

The end.

You are not moral, therefore you are ethical and aesthetical.

Someone help me
Oh please, God help me

I don`t want to die

I'm not sure whether school is a blessing or a cancerous curse. It should help me evolve intellectually (on some measures), it should give me a higher chance of having a successful life. But... Do I really want it? Really, I can't bear (tadadsss) holding myself (mentally and physically), others, bands togther. And to top it all off - I have no time to hurt myself.

Obviously, this "normal" bullshit hs what keeps me healthy, yet drains my sanity. And the real deal hasn't even begun yet. TARDRAGE

Yes, I've decided to use a completely different keyboard setting. Instead of QWERTY, I've taken up Dvorak (annoyingly inconvinient atm - writing this 5 mins and counting.

I'd write a wall of text, but it would take hours. Hence I will just post the video that I agree with.

Anyway. I am surprisingly happy, despite my lack of sleep, food and everything else. Could I be attached to a certain girl or am I really just (re)discovering a... Problem, if you may. I keep running, I feel "ok" even when woken up early - I should be dead by now. And I can actually keep up with studying (so far). Even moar inspiration, want to do shit. Hm. Interedast. Well, a pleasant change from my rather bad mood days.

Rather good, yet I feel like there's something going to go wrong again. I just know it. But it's a matter of waiting. Hum, hum hum.

Yes, they have been defeated. I finally posted (a lousy) music review/ad. Now I am winrar and can post shit again.

I'm not going to write lengthy review because I'm too lazy. Tl;dr - nice album. Likable bass lines, the drums sounds good, but the guitar sometimes doesn't seem to contribute as much, so it might, at times, remind you a little bit of Tool.

ceturtdiena, 2011. gada 18. augusts

Old blog - found it!

Yep. I found my old blog and, really, my last post in it saddened me. Hm. Have I really been like what I am now ever since November? Or did I just exaggerate back then?

Whatever the situation, I'm getting more and more dreams during nights as well. And I'm still having trouble telling whether they're dreams or not when I wake up (unless I am woken up from reality world). The idea of trying to learn to use reality checks actually sounds reasonable. And very, I assume it would at least help me here because I'm really struggling with that stuff. I assume I should start writing down my dreams again, maybe there is a detail that I should pay attention to - one that doesn't exist or doesn't happen in real life that much.

When I reread my posts here, I also remembered about school. What the fuck am I going to do there, because I just seem mentally challenged to myself. Now I'll have to keep myself content with a huge lack of sleep, food and entertainment for hours.

And I'm sure that I'll reread my posts after a year, then I'll regret writing this stuff. It's always like that.

And now it's time for me to write down a review about an album or smtn. I s'pose.

Tool - Lateralus

Quote: "I am s/h(im)e[r] as you am s/h(im)e[r] as you ..."

"Let's suppose that you were able every night to dream any dream you wanted to dream, and that you could for example have the power within one night to dream 75 years of time or any length of time you wanted to have, and you would naturaly as you began on this adventure of dreams you would fufill all your wishes. You would have every kind of pleasure you could conceive and after serveral nights of 75 years of total pleasure each you would say "wow that was pretty great, but now lets umm lets have a surprise, lets have a dream which isn't under control where something is going to happen to me that I don't know what it's going to be" and uhh you would do that and come out of that and say "wow that was a close shave wasn't it" and then you would get more and more adventureous and you would make further and further gambles as to what your dream, and finally you would dream where you are now. You would dream the dream of living the life that you are actually living today."

Excellent lyrics from an excellent song and band, and album.

Giraffes? Giraffes! - I am s/h(im)e[r] as you am s/h(im)e[r] as you ...

Redemption: Old computer alive again!

This just proves that my PC is a run-on-the-mill piece of metal and wierd electronic artwork which I do not even fucking comprehend. But, all-in-all, it's alive again and my music (the whopping 50 GB!) is alive again! Therefore I am capable of posting music from time to time again, not only my boring and derpressing walls of text.

Although, one or two new ones might appear every once a week if I contribute to this often enough. Feel free to skip, though. And forward the music, if you want to.

Metallica - Suicide & Redemption

trešdiena, 2011. gada 10. augusts

Ah, shit! I've got no way to label this one!

Yes. My computer is still dead, so no music until I get it back. Feels wierd when I haven't found out about a new band & stuff for over 2 weeks. I'm not sure if that's correct anyway. I remember dates like most people remember their dreams.

I came to the conclusion that I should stop drinking. For the 5th time at least (yeslol!). But this one almost ended quite badly - instead of just trying to punch walls to get rid of excess energy and/or anger, I actually tried to strangle myself (I had forgotten that people can't do that with their own hands, fuck) and somehow managed to save someone else from cutting herself a few minutes or hours later, I'm not quite sure. One of the few times I had to look after everybody, not the other way around. Huh. Funny, despite the fact that I seemed to be the most emotionally unstable that night.

I also feel that my life is going in a giga roller coaster. Something IS wrong with me, but I don't know what. I fear the psychiatrist just because they write down stuff in their permanent records and they can screw up... Something? I dunno, I probably need to research that. And the other chance is a psychotherapist, but they cost a shitload of cash (hence they're called psycho-the-rapist). Although, I've been mad with the idea that I have this & that disorder, I'm slowly starting to disbelieve it. For now, since the attempt my mood's been pretty ok, no reckless behaviour or sulking over nothing.

So, I don't think I'm going to the doctor for a while. I might ask my physician or something, but right now - I feel fine and whatever idea I had about fixing myself with mood stabilizers or talking for hours on end, they're sorta... Well, considered absolete. Maybe it'll swim back up. But as far as I've thought, maybe it's not depression at all. Not manic or major, at least. It's more likely that they're addictions. The computer and alcohol. I'd say they make the biggest impact on my train of thought and everything else. Yeah, I most likely won't get rid of either. But just like Tourettes guy always says: "I don't give a shit!" and "You can suck my dick! Or cock!"

Also, it's getting cold - for the first time in a few months, I actually had a cough from the temperature at night. Fuuuuuucking autumn. Oh, well.

Dream: Countryside sleep is bad.

A couple of days ago I stayed over night in my countryside. It was overall ok except for the sleeping part - I slept horribly. I woke up tired and I talked with full sentances, moved a lot and woke up a lot as well. I also had several dreams (for hours in my dreamish sense of time). Sadly, I remember only fragments of them (didn't write down and was woken up... with tickling assault)

The one I wanted to share was the last one I had, it was in a sort of a Salad Finger - ish kind of atmosphere and look. It was a bit above depressing. Me, Gustavs, Alice and some other people lived in an apartment (a horrible one, I might add.) We had a sink in the bedroom with beds that looked like they were dragged from Fallout 3 or something.

Somewhere in the dream Alice became really ill, at first she just lied on the bed for a while. And over time she became worse - her nails started breaking like dry paint on planks, her skin was as if it was flaking or something, tl;dr - she slowly started turning into a zombie. It went on, for what I percepted as days, she just started crawling towards me and I didn't even give a fuck, she was just dying there, it seemed like dehydration - she choked on nothing and was completely dry. And I was just washing my hands (wasting water - nearly ironic, no?).

Made me comprehend one thing (again) - nobody gives a fucking piece of slimy, wormy shit about any illness or misfortune unless the joke's on you. If I were an animator, then I'd most likely recreate it as a cartoon, but sadly I have no talent in visual arts, just slight talent in music and gaming, that's just it. It would most likely look like a video inspired by this guy.

Rant: Oh, double shit!

Yeslol, I won't be able to put on completely unknown bands or their reviews on because my computer died. That douche. :c

So, there are two major problems - I will be harder to reach (unless ye haz me phone number) and there is a possibility that most of my music will disappear, therefore I'll be severely discouraged to put on reviews for a while. Oh, yeah. I'll also put on walls of text here even less.

tl;dr - I shall be unreachable for a while and this'll collect some dust for a short while (a week to two).

Meanwhile, offer this blog to some people that might read/follow because I'm only sure about one person that checks this out (thank you, mammal) from time to time. And, well, quite frankly - it's not that worth it, because I can freely chat with him in draugiem.lv or skype. So, if moar news and shit is wanted, then I must get moar attenshunz. So... Every new follower I get will be appreciated.

Spam: People.

'Tis pretty wierd how we mostly dislike others, yet can't live without them (mostly - try becoming a hermit, I dare you!) Somehow, I think that I'd gladly just leave all the people, except for one or two, which I'd probably kidnap or persuade to come with me, but I am unable to - I'm a well-fed child and have been that way for all my life. And I've never done shit for anything - sometimes I'm even to lazy to fix myself a sandwich.

That's probably, where the person or two come in - for the sole purpose of  creating me infinite sandwiches. But there's a problem with that as well. I'd probably need a field to grow crops to make flour, so I can make bread. Besides that, the bread would only be resupplied annually. The same goes with vegetables and meat (provided if I take a pig with me. Or 5). Only the meat would have to be fed, blah, blah.

Somehow I wish I could live like that, yet I'd have so much/too much to do. I'd end up burnt out and dead, if not insane from the loneliness and I'd probably grow to hate the two people as well, like I do with most things. Or vice versa. Fuck if I know. Therefore - humans are like pack animals - we are unable to live without a society.

Just like Winston Churchill said about democracy: “It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried.”. Humanity is the worst thing that could ever happen, except any other option/thing directly liked with people, that's what I'd say. I'll probably regret posting this stuff later and I'll want to delete this, but I don't even care.

Tl;dr - I'm in a below average mood and want to be away from everyone, but I can't due to physical precautions (such as survival) and dependence on people.

First started playing guitar at the age of 11, self taught and playing only by ear. I was obsessed with the guitar from the age of 4 and when I finally got my first guitar which my elder brother bought for me, ( thanks bro!! ) I couldn’t put it down.
My influences even from an early age where very blues rock orientated, bands like, Led Zepplin, AC/DC, Jimi Hendrix, Cream and as with most young Australian guitar players Tommy Emmanuel was a massive influence!

Later I would find such guitarists as Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Johnson, these two guitar players blew my mind ( and still do! ) like no other. I studied under the tuition of David Herzog for around 2 years and to this day I am still mentored by him.
As far as my guitar playing goes these where the most important 2 years of my life. I was practicing between 10-12 hours everyday and would spend a couple of hours a week with David fine tuning techniques and ideas.
As a musician my favorite thing is to play live and I have been doing so since I was 14, which I am very thankful for. I am based in Europe now and Im the Lead Guitarist for a Czech Progressive Rock Band called Prazsky Vyber 2 ( Prague Selection 2 )
Taken from: Glenn's myspace self-bio.

+:
Amazing guitar playing, the solos don't seem to be very alike and are very fast. He's also a very versatile player, this album shows it - he can play country-ish songs (Gruntas Boot Scoot), rather psychedelic stuff (Escape) and just straightforward shredding (S.R. Vicious, Solo From Hell). He can also make pretty emotional-ish solos and songs (Evangel, Father). The album's pretty interesting to listen to, the songs don't have much in common. Mostly, anyways.

-:
I'm not sure how much people who don't like guitar playing will appreciate this album. The drums or bass aren't very innovative - they only play the rhythm section, no solos whatsoever (except for an occasional drum fill and the drum solo in the end of Truffle Shuffle), which might turn people who don't like guitar playing much.

Overall: 
All in all - a guitar playing show off with a variety of songs. His style is sort of similair to the popular rock guitar virtuosos, such as Joe Satriani, Stevie Vai. If you're interested in any guitar playing in any way, then I advise you to check this album out.

Music: The Mount Fuji Doomjazz Corporation - Succubus

Total time: 1h 16min

Number Of Tracks: 13
Genre: Experimental; Instrumental; Drone; Ambient

 The Mount Fuji Doomjazz Corporation is the experimental Ambient/Noise/Drone/Jazz alter ego of The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble, the self-acclaimed “mutant jazz” band formed in 2000 by Jason Kohnen (aka Bong-Ra) and Gideon Kiers, and which later evolved into a six-member piece.


The downbeat ambient jazz of their first CD was however only one avatar of this coterie, as demonstrated by the birth of The Mount Fuji Doomjazz Corporation. The semi-improvised, dark, heavy, “sludgy” counterpart to the “ensemble”, the Corporation leaves all borders behind, focusing this time on mesmerizing, doom-ridden drones and melodies, combined with the jazzy grooves and melodies of the cello and saxophones. A snapshot of the band’s free-form sessions, in which there is no solid structure or time frame but a focus on cataclysmic improvisation and feeling, this album stands as a captivating dirge of raw guitar drones, saxophone and trombones emancipated from their classic jazz boundaries and abysmal bass throbs. An highly disorientating yet convincing journey through the deep realms of murky drone jazz / metal, heavy, suffocating and unfettered.
Text taken from: Last.fm.com

I am slightly too lazy to write a large and lengthy review, so I'll just make a Pros - Cons sort of list.

 +:
Pretty great album - the sound's really interesting and one of my favourite drone albums to date. The songs are pretty long as well and they change riffs/sounds in the middle, so it's pretty interesting to listen to.

-:
Some of the songs are sort of alike, so the album might become hard to listen to shortly before it ends. Sometimes seems to lack substance, but I guess it's ok for an ambient album.

Redemption!

Yep. Es esmu izlēmis uztaisīt jaunu blogu, jo manī mīt milzīgs daudzums slinkuma, kas liedz man atrast veco.

Tiem, kas lasīja manu iepriekšējo blogu - neuzskatiet, ka es šeit aktīvi spamošu. Visticamāk šis blogs tiks pamests un odīs pēc putekļiem pēc pāris mēnešiem - cilvēki, kas ātri iegūst interesti par kaut ko, un tikpat ātri to zaudē ir daudzi. Arī es tāds esmu.

Uztaisīšu īsu aprakstu par to, ko es šeit laiku pa laikam iesviedīšu-

•Nelielu daudzumu pārdomu un sūdzēšanās;
•Epifānijas, sarežģītus jautājumus vai vienkārši muļķības;
•Mūziku, tās vērtējumus/aprakstus, whatnot (probably ar mediafire linkiem/youtube, lai būtu preview).

So, I s'pose - iespējams, ir vērts iemest aci reizi nedēļā. Varbūt retāk.
