'In The End' by Oceans of Sadness, in really crap quality. My favorite Symphony X album by a long shot.

Hm, I'm listening to Oceans of Sadness now and structurally it's interesting, although I think it could use a bit of technical improvement. That said, I suspect Yobo would like this since it bears a similarity to Grown Below but with more progressive tendencies.

Hee. Looks like something my brother would have made during his early graphic manipulation days.

The only mod we have on here who ever does anything is BAN, and I doubt he leveled a penalty at this guy since it was evident that he was willing to participate. I just wish the poor fellow had chosen a better name.

Inasmuch as warmth is sensed by touch and pictures don't communicate that sensation...

How? All I can see is that the sun is shining.

Is your friend Scandinavian by any chance? They're the only people on this planet with a dark enough sense of humor to come up with a joke like that...

To be clear, I meant 'party' in the collegiate definition, i.e. a bunch of my esteemed colleagues getting together to get high, get drunk and get laid, all to some really awful music. Not one aspect of partying sounds any fun at all. Every time I hear such people talking about 'partying' I instantly hate them, and most of the time the more they talk the more they merit my unrelenting disgust.

And when you're tanked, I'll be there to mock the hell out of you. As I do.

'Anti Product' by Strapping Young Lad. My dad kind of likes this song, if only for the brass bit.

'AAA' by Strapping Young Lad.

So, I finished up a first draft of the Satan's Delivery Service lyrics or whatever the hell they are: 18 Wheels As day dawns I wake up prepared Knowing ye auspiciousness ov another day I leave my castle Wife and hounds behind For today is ye day I earn my keep I traverse ye empty plains And frosted heights Neither rain nor sleet nor snow nor hail Can stop ye goods I bring Barreling breakneck across ye asphalt plains The miles whip by easily I shalt bear ye travails of distance As ye appointed courier (Chorus) Ye flames of perdition fire my heart! Sally forth, cursing that which wouldst allay me! Astride this iron mastodon 18 wheels ov determination In ye depths ov night Caught in ye automotive morass Slothful progress numbs my mind But ye thought ov medium-rare steaks Drives me on Sizzling beef awaits me ‘pon my return! I take a draught from ye barrel Warmth of spirits fills me The scent ov hops ‘pon my breath A sign of my courage to strive on! 2 hours and miles left to go It is but naught to me Smokestacks belching Black clouds skywards Rubber claws at ye tar This chrome-plated steed roars eagerly Onwards! Unto ye client!

'Rosemary' by Deftones. Seriously, whenever the Katatonia pops out it's great! Still, this 'wrenching ballad' tempo really gets on my nerves sometimes.

But you didn't. Which is why everything went to crap in the first place.

'Gauze' by Deftones.

I hope not. The 429 Boss Mustang had a NASCAR engine in it and while it destroyed its competition in that sport it made a poor street car. Since it made most of its power at really high revs the acceleration wasn't great shakes, so it couldn't hold a candle to Cobra Jets in short circuits and stoplight drag races.

'Romantic Dreams' by Deftones. Another one of these albums that people are raving about so I decided to give it a go. Sounds a little like Trapt and Katatonia mixed with some shoegaze elements. It definitely isn't doing much of anything for me, but it's not bad. The key is that they've successfully convinced me that they're not just phoning in their emotion. The technical elements are also interesting.

Definitely not. I hate parties and generally speaking hate people who go to parties. I will be relaxing, though, if that answers your question.

Some people like hockey skates, some people like figure skates. I prefer lounging around the rest area drinking hot chocolate.
