if you don't like what's on the radio, either change the station or turn the radio off and go wash your hair or something.
this is my thread, and if i wanna put ten tons of all manner of catastrophic failure in it, i will do so.
so in short, quit trying to derail my damned thread.
either post on topic or get the fuck out and go to another thread, or go start your own damned thread and derail it any way you like,

YOU KNOW WHAT?
"555-the neighbor of the beast" is the only one of my records where i did not choose the album title.
i was gonna call it something else entirely.
however, the record label, local punks records, and more specifically, label vice-president, matthew leonard,
chose that title against my porotests of disapproval.
even i thought it was a very stupid title that made no sense whatsoever,
but then again, neither does that record!
personally, i hate my first record. i was homeless when i made it, as well as being very green when it comes to recording. this was in the fall of 2004. so needless to say, there wasn't really any pre-production at all, and recording in someopnes garage using cakewalk and a very basic set-up didn't exactly help things either.
i didn't have much practice before i went in and recorded it, and it really shows in the finished
product.
now you know why
even i think it's an utter colossal piece of shit.
i have, however chose all album titles since then.
"prime meridian mind fuck", "disasterpeace theatre" and "torturary statutes", as well as the ep from 2002, "hard, loud, and proud"
are the ones i named.
so, if you really need someone to blame for that really dumbass title, blame matthew leonard, not me.
he is the one who named it "555-the neighbor of the beast".Last edited by ace diamond; 01-27-2011, 04:19 AM.Originally posted by hideyoursheepWhen Hagar speaks, I want to cut off my ears and send them to Bristol Palin.Comment

On "The Final Journey Into The Black", the effect is just the opposite. The singing is pretty good, but the guitar work just kills it, and not in a good way. I've said this to ace before, if he'd just take a little bit more time with his preproduction, by the time he got around to recording he'd be more prepared and could then concentrate on the details of making everything sound better. Ultimately, the finished product would be much improved and would make things easier for him in the long run, both in the recording process and in getting his point across.
time is money when you are in a recording studio.
since i don't have a lot of money, and recording time is not cheap, i didn't exactly have a lot of time to do overdubs or to "sweeten"
things up at all.
secondly, as for "the final journey into the black":
that was the only song on disasterpiece theatre that i didn't play my les paul on.
i played my dean vmnt-ua dave mustaine signiture model.
also, i did however, use the line 6 spider 3 75 watt amp that would later blow up and claim my les paul along with it.
i really dig the brian may setting i used as the outro......as for the song "the final journey into the black", it just a filler track.
i needed something to end the record with so that is what i came up with about a month before i went into the recording studio to put it all down.
so there is a very valid reson why i put it at the end of the record..........
i knew i shouldn't have drank so many corona bottles when i was recording that song...........

Which is exactly my point, ace. As you prepare to record in a well thought-out preproduction phase, you can plan ahead for the time spent in the recording studio. You have the opportunity to make notes about which guitar to use, settings for effects for guitar and /or vocals, where and when to add additional guitar tracks to a song, ect. Having these details outlined ahead of time saves a great deal of time, which as you aptly pointed out, is money.

Regardless of what you think about the guy as a poster in other threads, he had the balls to post his work. If it sucks to your ears, so what? Believe me, there are plenty of opportunities available to slam the guy for his often pointless posting, highly questionable reasoning and general lack of hygiene. Yes, you are entitled to your opinions about his stuff, but throwing in a couple of AIC clips and a VH tune to a post hardly proves anything, particularly when the guy's...uh, work pretty much speaks for itself.
Look, ace's music gives me migraines that no amount of alcohol, medication, meditation, head massages or the end of the world will remove. But no one is forcing me to sit through it, let alone place value judgments as to it's merit one way or another. That in and of itself is the beauty of the internet: You are not immediately compelled to respond to everything, merely because it exists. If ace wishes to share his stuff with an otherwise unsuspecting and blissful world, he's free to do it. And there is nothing written down anywhere that says you must listen to it, accept it or even comment on it.
Let it go, and hope the next time that you yourself present something, it won't be slammed or ridiculed because someone happens to hold a particular grudge against you.

Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!Comment
