you CAN listen to it without getting high. we have lots of straight-edge fans!!

in fact one of our biggest fans wears a respirator or gas mask to our shows. no lie.

I know... I just don't listen to metal. I usually listen to 'New Age Classical' such as The Piano Guys on YouTube.. See here! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_603527&feature=iv&src_vid=tDsm_O9i88Q&v=gpx4YqMkrfc)

Not my cup of tea, but the drumming was impressive. I've been working on beatboxing lately, but that's as close as I get.

There used to be a decent hardcore scene in my town years ago, which has since vanished. I remember the straight edge kids would mosh wearing gas masks at shows where pot was being smoked.. this track brings back memories...

That's actually pretty good... I could imagine better mastering, though.

Funny you mention that... Our guitar player was diagnosed with colon cancer so we did a cover of You've Got Cancer. Only time I have ever enjoyed AxCx. Never though they'd get mentioned on GH :p

And thanks everyone, glad you like it!
