Yo yo!

There is a possibility of "Faggot Sapiens" turning into an actual band sometime in the future. This weekend I talked to a good friend of mine who happens to be probably the best drummer I know and he was excited about the new songs from "Relationshit Revisited" that I played to him, and he said that he'd like to play drums in the project if I want to form a live band. I played with him back in the days in a band called "Chaosphere" (the music was brutal, groovy thrash/death metal) as the bassist. It was my first band, I think there are a few (very low quality) live clips from our shows on youtube.

I think it would be awesome, let's see what will happen! My little brother is also moving to the same city sometime this year so he'll definately be in the band as a guitar or bass player (the bastard plays better than I do). I'll try no to get too excited though, these things don't alwys work out that easy but let's see!

Finishing the new album has taken a little longer than I thought it would but I'm working hard on it and this time honestly it'll be out in February. I'd say on the 23rd, that's my birthday :D I'll try to get the artwork done and release one more song before I release the whole album. Don't know which one yet, though. I just got the idea as I was writing this thing.

ps.
Wow, Charlie is on the top of the grunge list! Thank you, good people of NG!

I'm going to have a new one pretty soon. This might delay the album a little.

For the time being, i'll record and post a new acoustic song today/tomorrow that's not included on the album!

All the songs have been picked for the album carefully. Some of them you haven't heard before, some you have, but all of the older songs on the album will be versions that you haven't heard. Assuming I will be able to upgrade my recording program, the album will be out in January. Here's the tracklist:

"FAGGOT SAPIENS: RELATIONSHIT REVISITED"

1 Walls of Berlin
2 In Love Again
3 A to B
4 So Far, No Good
5 Mono Erectus
6 Quicksand
7 Poltergeist
8 No Longer a Whore
9 Sister
10 Heart 404
11 Into the New
12 Fuck Me
13 Pretty Side Up

i'm also probably going to make a split EP with a friend of mine, it will most likely feature 3 new songs from me...

AND! I decided that whenever I make the album able for physical purchase I will include a 5-song-EP called "Revival of Tomorrow" to it. I don't know yet if I'll release it otherwise.

Track list for REVIVAL OF TOMORROW

1 Shoot Me in the Sun
2 Time's Up
3 Revival of Tomorrow
4 Paramedics Arrive!
5 Sky or Heaven

Acoustic live of "Heart 404"

There you have it. Watch it, rate it, spread it, or something

The audio track for some reason is not in sync with the video, it was though before i uploaded it on youtube :o

We also recorded live videos of me performing 2 other songs, I'll see later what I'll do about them
Just thought I should let you know that I can play this shit live too

I will be putting out a new album pretty soon, whenever it's ready. It shall be called "Relationshit Revisited". I will not be using the name "sHANze" as the artist name. It'll be released on bandcamp.com and may become available for physical purchase sometime in future. It will contain something like 10 songs. A single from the album is already on the internet. Try to find it if you care ;D

The album will NOT be acoustic. It will kick ass.

When life sucks the most, that's when you do the best songs. It's not really worth it but if it's all I can get, I'll take it.

Another song to listen to, you can buy it too if you want to support me a little. I'm broke fellas... :D
But listening is free so listen to it anyway.

last friday we played our first gig with the new band! we only played 7 songs, that was the best we could do with the given circumstances but i guess we did ok. it was cool to perform although the stage was strange (there was no stage, we played on the floor) and only few people were there. most of them said that they couldn't hear the singing though... there's a video of the whole performance so maybe you'll see it too if you care to. but i don't know if you can hear the singing there either :D yeah it was a true first gig alright!

A new song from our band. It's a good song.

Telling me to do the right thing is like telling a blind man to take a good look into the mirror - as much as I'd like to it's simply impossible and the mirror's just looking at me.

My love is a framed painting on the wall. If it fell down and broke. It makes me think. It's easy to get a new frame and just hang the slightly damaged picture back on the wall. But most likely it will fall down again and again until the picture is more than slightly damaged. A better way to fix it is to paint it again from the scratch. This time using true colors. But to do that you also need to learn to paint, and to do that you might need some time alone to exercise. If you're not happy with the new painting, throw it away and paint something else instead but remember always to use true colors.

Whatever happens next will be scary and new.

I'm uploading a demo version of a song called "So far, No good" that is pretty relevant to me right now. It has no drums but fuck that. You'll get the idea.

The first "single" from our band, Empire Grotesque is now on bandcamp and myspace I think. Will maybe be on newgrounds as well unless we are too lazy to make an account for the band. Let's see. Anyways, go listen to it! It's weird!
