DRGTS

more sure of what i want to do more than ever now, me and Bryan were suppose to do something together doubt it's a good idea but we might still try. I'm not completely opposed to the idea but it's the fact i don't think he completely gets it. i want to be in a post-hardcore band. like the true definition of a post-hardcore band. there's a lot of bands i got into over the past year and they're taking a big influence on me. i want to try to save a dying genre and introduce kids to a sound i'm sure many have never been properly shown. i'm a guy that appreciates legitimate hardcore and assorted indie-rock and alternative bands and that just goes to show you why post-hardcore is something that's exactly right up my alley and feel strong for. there's a lot i'd like to accomplish with this band i plan on eventually doing. my writing has be gradually becoming more and more sophisticated as well as somewhat ridiculous. i really love where i'm going and i feel that this honestly won't work unless i have people on board and around that gets as well as fully understand this project's sound. the shows won't work out if everyone isn't 100% into it because it will show so easily. the music has so much room to breathe and there's room for emotion and emphasis to be thrown on top of what's actually going on. if things are done right a huge impact could be imprinted on a lot of people that encounters the band. i'm not trying to be cocky, or too optimistic but i feel that what i'm doing hasn't exactly be done in the manor i'd like to go about and a lot of kids are waiting for something like this to emerge. i'm still sold on the EP and it's odd cause i just remembered the other day how i wrote and wrote for years straight. those songs are dead to me and i've out grown them but i've been working on the same 10-20 songs/ideas for the past 8 months and i haven't been this satisfied ever. hopefully either in or before december i will demo two songs with intentions of finding people to help me complete this project. i'm going to be very upfront and firm about this. i don't want to be a control freak but i def need this to work and certain way. things need to sound and feel a certain way, not like how with lights and sirens needed things to go along a certain formula things just need to be real. like you can't set rules to something like that, but there needs to be some sort of law when it comes to presentation as well as writing it's self. i want to be apart of thing that's secretive and keeps people wondering what's going on. i understand people lose interest but at the same time you can't whore the band out, tour on the same 10 songs or so for a year straight and expect people to still be stoked/pumped. i want to have songs and dispense them wisely and almost sporadically. i'm not going to lie, i don't think i have the complete capabilities or capacity to write a whole LP right now but most likely in a few years esp after i'm active for a little. i have a lot of ideas but i'm going to let that come together on it's own like the first droughts EP did. i'm really proud of what i'm going to produce sometime next year and hopefully it will be received like i've been fantasizing it to be. i need to stop being lazy and get a job, once that occurs a lot will change.
