someone i was talking to once described the reason for their use of pot and acid, along with why they didn't drink alcohol, as follows. "When you drink alcohol, everything is dulled, all your senses..it's just black and white. But taking weed or acid is like an out of body experience. Your whole perception is changed and you get to see things from a whole different viewpoint. It can be real mind opening." Now i dont take pot or acid or any other illicit drugs, but it did make me believe that this person isn't just doing it to be cool or anything. The fact that they dont drink because they dont like the sideffects of it, proves that. I still say the kind of people who skip classes at school to smoke are fucked up. Many people i know are stoned 24-7 and they just lose their personality. But i do believe there's times when the use of such drugs can be justified or atleast shouldn't be looked down on. i just don't believe you need drugs/alcohol to feel better about yourself, or to get a different view point on life. simply listening to music or watching a movie, or even just being with a friend, or wandering around by myself can make me feel totally happy and realise how much beauty there is in the world, even when it's so full of hatred, greed and damn damn damn dirty apes, otherwise known as the fucking american government and their terrorist friends. |

I just consider people like us lucky that we dont feel the need for a certain outlet to feel that way. But to get back on topic, I must say i quite like the songs. At times the vocals do sound a bit not quite upto standard, but i also feel that they suit the music fairly well. I couldn't make a full decision on wether i liked the vocals or not until i heard a better quality recording or saw the band live or something. i like "so you wanna save the world" best, but that may be because it's freshest in my mind. |
