I'm saving that to listen to later. Gotta admit, that's a fucking awesome name for a track.

[Aaron]

On my first play through of it. And I like it. The nosiey ness of it is good stuff. And the beats are good to.

[individualzero]

The awesomeness of the track title matches the audio contents. That was really, really cool. It makes me think of NIN's electronics meets Skinny Puppy samples and beats, with a little Pigface thrown in ... and that's a very, very good thing!

[TPD]

thanks, guys!
and thanks for the comparisons!

this was going to be released ages ago with charlie sheen samples (like the day after that whole broo-haha happened), but i was busy with stuff, and someone else made a killer filthy dubstep track with sheen (which was my total initial goal, dammit)... so i put it on the back burner.

the sheen thing got old within a week, so i never got around to putting those samples in, but i still liked the basic track so i tinkered with it every other day and then i didn't, and it totally morphed into a different beast (kinda like the one you just heard.)

i felt inspired yesterday and ended up working on it all night/morning fixing it up, adding stuffs, panning the wobble, and adding those awesome samples.

really happy with how it turned out.
especially since i've been in a music rut for the past few months and haven't been working on much of anything.
whooo.

more soon...

Keep us updated, unless I can just somehow subscribe. It's good shit. It sounds like a professional-level track without the pretentiousness, if that makes sense ("LOOK AT ME I'M TOM MORELLO I CAN MAKE ANGELS ORGASM WITH MY GUITAR LICKS")

[TPD]

aw shucks. <3
if you sign up to soundcloud, you can subscribe. or just keep a heads up on my twitter or fb...
either way i'll whore 'em here.

and if you like that stuff, check out the other tracks... they all sound different because i'm schizophrenic like that.

for some reason, this news of Ryan Dunn passing away struck a chord.

R.I.P You silly grizzly man. 

[sin]

I know what you mean; I haven't particularly cared that Ryan Dunn died, but I remember when Peter Steele died, I didn't even really listen to a lot of Type O Negative at the time, but for some reason it really affected me (and now I listen to it all the time).

Just one of those weird things.

[doom]

see, I posted ALOT about Peter Steele, I LOVE me some Type O Negative.

I think it was everything surrounding it. To get sort of graphic, they had to i.d. him by his tattoos,
and there's a photo of the aftermath of his car, and its really just terrible. i just think of them all as
a bunch of dumb, silly kids that never grew up, and this feels so tragic, though (still unconfirmed) probably
caused by his own hands through foolishness. it's strange how some deaths can affect the way you think,
even if its not someone close or that personal to you.

[sin]

I mean, I owned October Rust and I was aware of them and all, but Type O Negative went from "One of the bands I sometimes listen to" and became "A band I listen to all the time and will cut a motherfucker if they talk shit about them," which is weird for me.  I'm usually of the "nothing is sacred about anything" school of thought, so it's not like I was just showing respect for the dead.  I almost NEVER show respect for the dead.  I could GIVE A FUCK about the dead.  Just went and 'did a thing' when Peter Steele died.

funny thing, the other day a friend of mine who works at a local record shop, and for some reason they were playing the new Lady Gaga album. As I'm walking in, I see him raise an eyebrow and wait for the employee who put in said disc to walk away, and he walks over to the stereo, ejects the disc, the employee goes "hey!" to which he replies, "sorry, this is garbage." flings the disc, and puts in type o negative's "October Rust" and skips to track 3 like a pro. 

I had an inner  moment.

so i shopped around to the album playing, bought what i came to get, and the employee comes back around and says "I can't believe you like this band."

and I had to blurt: "NO ONE TALKS SHIT ABOUT TYPE O NEGATIVE!"
and my friend goes, "THATS FUCKIN RIGHT!"

then we both had a simultaneous inner  moment.

i really don't get why people are all omg lady gaga!!!! ok i'll admit i've only knowingly heard one of her songs but based on that i feel qualified to make the judgement that it's just the same old pop/dance shit as everything else

[doom]

i mean...i can SEE it. she's like the marilyn manson of pop music i guess, with attempts at "shock" and "strange fashion." with artists like kei$ha, katy perry, and the likes of, at least shes DOING something. she also embraces everything homosexual or outcast-ed as fandom family, and that has to mean a lot to a lot of people. i don't mind her in the least, i just don't chose to listen to her music.

[sin]

Musically, she sounds like a combination of Madonna and Ace of Base, and stylistically she's not doing anything more "shocking" than rock and metal musicians have been doing for decades (I've brought up the Marilyn Manson comparisons myself on occasion).  She really has never done anything original.  On the other hand... it's pop music.  It's always going to be there, so there's really no point in disliking it.

But kudos to your friend for overriding the Gaga to put in Type O Negative.  I also had an inner AND outer  moment.
