More Impressions

So I really liked the season premiere of N/T. Not shocking in anyway, but it was a “getting back to the story” kind of premiere. 2 new characters joined the show, we get some basics on the Slasher situation and the condition of the love triangle (julia, sean, chrisitan). It looks like Matt gets into some really deep shit in a few episodes…the whole season just has tremendous potential. Rest assured I will be in front of the tv every Tuesday at 10pm.

Now on to my other love: Korn. The new album is coming out at the end of November so that means the first single is out. After finding out it hit the radio (Twizted Transistor) a few days ago I tracked it down. I don’t know what to think. I was afraid that after Head left, they’d take shit in a totally different direction or just fuck things up in general. I mean without Head, their fundamental sound had to change with no intentions of replacing him. It’s definatly different. Without Jon’s distinctive voice, you can’t really tell it’s a Korn song. It has that catchy hook, but Fieldy’s trademark bass sound isn’t there. That Korn sound isn’t as pronounced. It doesn’t grab you by the ears and shake your shit like it should. It’s more…I don’t want to say clubish but it kind of is. It sure as shit isn’t metal and I think it walks the line of rock. I have it on repeat now, so I’ve listened to it like 15 times in a row and while it’s grown on me, I definitely don’t want the whole album to sound like this. The world needs more ass kicking rock. I’ll be pissed if Matrix produced this right into the direction I never wanted Korn to go in. Jon has said he’s really happy with the album, so I still have hope. I’ll probably buy the album regardless though. THIS JUST IN: The name of the album is “See You On The Other Side” and is coming out on December 2nd.

Awhile back I mentioned I was going to write a short film script. Said I’d do it in 2 days. Yeah, I’m a liar. I’m not even half way done with it and I wrote about it like a month ago. My new goal is to push myself more. I procrastinate way too fucking much and I got to get shit going. If anyone has any TV/movie ideas bouncing around your head, let me know. I could use all the good ideas in the world right now. That and winning the lottery. I could use a lot of money too.
