Divine creations....

Now destroyed to uncover the haunted atmosphere
Strange visions of the ancient spirits, travesty of man appears
Coldness and the storming winds lurking for prey
The forces of the Winter reign in dreadful way, there's no escape......

So, on Friday (last Friday, Dec. 4, 2009), I practiced for the first time as the bassist/vocalist of Atomic Violence - soon to be something else most likely (I'm partial to Wolfen Gray) - and WOW.
It was electrifying. Sarah (our new keyboardist) managed to fit right into our old songs - except for Thrashold, which she'll be doing lead vox on from now on, because she owns at that song.
Sarah adds a new dimension to our music and makes it more complex, melodic and basically more interesting. And it's not like she has to do all the work and we just play lame, simple stuff. There's just something in the air when she starts playing that gives us great ideas.
I can't wait. If we used the lyrics I wrote in the woods for our newest song then I'm sure we could use others that I've written. It would be awesome to turn The Flower, Vigilante, or Kingdom of the Stars into a full song. All the lyrics I've written.... Out of the Mirror, Sanity Forsaken, Angel in the Gutter....
If I'm lucky, I'll be able to turn all those lyrics into songs (which would be awesome) and not have to write any more for a while (which would also be awesome).
This is hopefully the start of something wonderful. Shit, we've put our record deal procedure on hold, stopped playing shows for a while, and modified our lineup. But I wouldn't have it any other way. I finally feel free in this band. I'm dying to practice again.

Til next time.
