Matt's been in the studio recording. He has one up for listening to. It's not mastered yet, but it still sounds awesome. It's him playing lead guitar and singing(it's the first time I've actually ever heard his voice over the music. I had no idea what he sounded like). That's a pic of him in the video. I'm not so sure why he's so mad at the world.  I blame it on Bush. That and all the swirlies I gave him as a child.
Anyways, here's the lyrics.
Lyrics:
Tell me something I haven't heard a million times before; I'm so bored
I can barely think. My brain's infected with your black and white
views of the way the world works, you vomit up solutions disregarding
the grey.

If you can't think critically, allowing all the variables to shape
your understanding of the world; then you should shut your fucking
mouth, man, 'cause you're not this nation's savior, just the cancer
that's rotting diversity.

Are you seriously telling me where I should hold my sensibilities; the
left wing's just as fucked as the right. What does it matter to you if
I believe in a God or detest the idea? Shouldn't the real priority be
my freedom to decide?

Here we go, thinking of the self and not the bigger picture, disregard
the ideals different from your own. Never mind the fact that others
need a different understanding to define their life and get them
through the day.

Paint by number politics, empower self-serve narcissists.
Superior concepts of faith, amalgamate the church and state.

It's your right to do what they tell you or you can live your life the
way that you want to... and tell them to get fucked.

And here's the vid.

Remember that time I wanted that pony for Christmas and I didn't? Well, there's your answer... now the world will feel the wrath of my angst.

Matt, that was a dog you kept pointing at, not a pony. Besides, I think @ 18, you were too old for ponies. But, since you were a "special" child, we took pitty and got you a hamster.

I quite like that you know. Sounded a little like the Bouncing Souls stuff I remember =]

[BarrieB]

Reminds me of the late 1970's.

[Jerseygirl]

Cool Matt.  Good luck with the band 

[The Abbreviators]

Thank you guys! I'm glad to hear its liked and not complete trash haha!  @Barrie It's funny that you say that 'cause the Ramones are a huge influence! @Corroded Being compared, even remotely to the Bouncing Souls is a huge compliment, so thank you! @Jersey Thank you! Right now, it's just a solo project but if I can get some sort of good response from this album, who knows, I may have to take it further.
I really wish I had the mastered version though, 'cause this version just doesn't do the song justice.

[Wooster]

Impressive stuff man. 
Can't believe I missed this thread (been a busy week).

A fucking pony?
Lassies ask for ponies ffs. 
Your old man is right, it should have been a dog...one of those nasty bastards with orange eyebrows that slevvers all the time because it thinks everything it looks at is food.

[BarrieB]

I'd rather be kicked by a dog than a horse.

It's also easier to kill a dog than a horse that bites you.

You've met my ex, right?

[Wooster]

Ahh..

You're right, best stick with the pony.

*Sorry guys, I don't know how to post the videos to where they are playable on this page, if someone could tell me how I'd be more than happy to change it.

Just thought I'd add a couple more on here:

This is Greg (lyrics below video):

Greg Lyrics:

You didn’t know Greg, but Greg was a patriot; not like those assholes flying flags all claim to be.
A patriot of more life and love than most of us could ever hope to know.
It’s with the greatest regrets I took for granted the short time we had.
I didn’t witness the shots that would take a young life but I heard them through late night phone calls.
With naiveté in youth I assumed you’d be fine so I didn’t make your recovery, but I made your funeral.
There’s a grave stone in a cemetery I have never seen.
Buried underneath it lays a soldier who did not succumb to war.
Despite all my searching, all I have are these faded memories
of a cramped Denny’s booth where we traded stories and cigarettes.
I still live by advice that you gave me that night; how I should eat, sleep, and fuck when I can.
Don’t stress the small things in life and I’ll get by just fine.
Well, I’ll drink to the better days and regrets we’re living with.


This song is My World (song starts at about 11 seconds FYI):

My World Lyrics:

My world is just a frantic breeding ground for all the manics
who buy the latest cultures at the cheapest rates.
Then they sell it right back to us advertising new improvements
and it wouldn’t be too prudent if we hesitate.
Now I get a little panicked and I think I need a Xanax
‘cause survival of the fittest stops making sense
when you cater to the dumbest,
celebrating the redundance of an ever-growing infantile populace.
My world is something I don’t understand.
My world is getting way past out of hand.
My world would sell their own fat asses if the price was right.
My world’s completely fucked!

We had to change that function since it was slowing the site down.

..me, Keasy and your old man can still do it though (using HTML), so consider it fixed.


Quality stuff btw..

Thanks Wooster!
