Shameless Self Promotion
I’ve just uploaded my new song ‘Drowning’ to my profile over at myspace, for those that might want to know what a blogger is SUPPOSED to sound like.
Well, not really, but it is made to be blared in your car with your windows down.
Go. Enjoy. Leave your feedback.

Review: tTabs.com - guitar, bass, and drum tabs
As a guitar player, I am always trolling the depths of the internet searching for tabs. For those that may not know, tabs (or tablature) are a type of written music, specifically designed for guitar.
I’ve stumbled upon this site: tTabs.com. They have a huge (and I do mean HUGE, as in over 140,000) collection of guitar, bass, and drum tabs. They even have stuff you can’t play, like Jibboom by Steve Vai. Ok, I admit Vai tabs are the first thing I look for in a tab site.
I confess, I wasn’t sure what drum tabs were, but upon inspection, it’s basically the same as the sheet music for drums typed with a keyboard. Easy.
I’m going to be bookmarking tTabs.com for my own personal use…it’s the best tab site I have seen to date!
This is a sp_ns_red post. But I’d have blogged about it anyway!

Review: Colors by Between the Buried and Me
Oct 28, 2007 Music
Album: Colors by Between the Buried and Me
I was handed this cd this morning by my program director. I couldn’t resist dropping it in and giving it a spin. Not on the air…I work at a country station.
The first track, Foam Born (a) The Backtrack, was interesting…at first I thought it was some emo-esque album (even though I was told it was metal). I have to say, I did dig the piano key change…to me, that’s a good hook. I figured I’d give it a chance, and skipped to the second track.
And that’s where the metal comes in.
By far, my favorite track on the album would be the sixth one, Prequel to the Sequel. Melodic, good guitar hooks, very groovy lead guitar work. Wow…melodic metal is good.
With it’s prog-melodic-death metal vibe, I’d have to give this album 8 out of 10. Why only 8? Well…I should probably listen to the thing more, but I have to deduct two points for the knit hat the singer is wearing in the pictures. I love knit hats myself, but it’s not metal. The pics make them look like, I dunno, Modest Mouse or something.
More bands should keep progressive, melodic metal from being a thing of the past. Between the Buried and Me are doing a good job waging sonic war on the mundane. Rock on.
