I agree with you there, except I'm actually not a hot chocolate person.

Autumn and winter are definitely my favorite seasons. I like when it gets really cold and dark because the night is so neat---I'll maybe turn my lava lamp on and just relax to a Tangerine Dream or Jean-Michel Jarre album.

So relaxing.

The second one shouldn't take near as long to finish up since I already have a substantial amount done. I spent nearly 2 hours last night though reading up on copyrighting and trademarks. I'll have to figure all of that out soon before I even think about putting the downloads on our website for free download. Ooh, excitement...!  Until the part about copyright and trademark law... a shame there has to be so much red tape with these things!  Let us know when we can give it a listen, won't you??

I'll be advertising it like hell, so you'll know.

Hopefully our albums will get added to PA too. Because one song was giving me so much trouble with the first album, I actually have about 34 minutes of material for the second album already... so that should be out next year (about half of those 34 is unfinished, half is finished).

I believe in miracles, where you from? You sexy thing, you sexy thing you...

That's why Western Culture should work for you better, 'cause it's not sock-related.

Plus it's their best album.

Edit: my dissertation for University was supposed to be 10,000 words... I managed about 6,000 but what I said covered everything I needed to, so I passed.

A 13,000 word novel though is a piece of yellowy-brown liquid.

I shall.   I think it's a case of 'aimless listening' on my part - there's plenty of stuff I like that took a while to get into or appreciate, but usually I sort of know what I'm listening for, or I have a sense of what's in there waiting for me if I give it enough time.  I don't really feel like that though with these here Sock Fetishists*...  hmm, more listening tomorrow...!

Freaking awesome.

I listened to that album just a few hours ago, actually. I'm on another favorite of mine now, "The End Is Beautiful" by Echolyn.

Indeed, I agree. It may be a reflection of a current mindset though and Magma and HC may fight for 2nd (Ozrics might too); we'll just have to wait and find out how they develop.

Considering I've had these charts for almost 3 years now, I'm pretty satisfied in the way it looks.

I will too.

It will only be a matter of time before they're 2nd on that list.

It's like saying the sky is blue.

Worked on my tax thesis a bit earlier, but I need to clear my mind of it for another day or two before I work on it again. I've been relaxing for a while now and thought I'd see if anyone's on here. Then I may go exercise bike, play a video game or two, and then drum. Not entirely sure yet.

Can't wait to hear the album.  Not much here, working, same old crap.  It's depressing to leave work in the dark, but whatever.

I was afraid to listen to it the other night because I thought I'd end up being really critical of it... but I actually am satisfied with it and wouldn't change anything. I'm even more excited about the next one though and I can tell my songwriting has heavily improved already. I also don't intend on remaining stagnant with my sound at all; there could be decent changes in sound from album to album because I treat each one separately. The first one is/will be our most ambient, I know that much.

I like how it gets dark early near the winter time, actually.

But I'm weird.
