As I Lay Dying - Awakened

My friend introduced me to this band. Although I have heard of this band before, I had never given them a try. This new 2012 album is killer! He was borrowing it from his cousin, so I am borrowing it third-hand. I am on track 6 as I write. I really love this album. Just switched to track 7, my friend's favorite track. I will be checking into buying my own hard copy.

EDIT: This album is insane!

Laptop Fan Fixed!

All that was wrong with my laptop was a dust-bunny in the way of the fan! I used this tutorial to help me disassemble my laptop.



You have to take off almost everything to get to that fan! There were two smaller motherboard screws that were on so tight, I thought I would never get them off. I am so glad and thankful I fixed the problem. Glory to God!

Broken Laptop Fan

For some unknown reason, my laptop fan went out. So I can only use the computer for a short time. I am not able to record any songs. Anything that requires high processing heats the computer and it shuts off by itself with no warning. It does this to protect itself from permanent damage. I will be looking into the problem. If it just needs a new fan then I can get it taken care of with a $10 order. I was successfully writing a song the other day before this all happened. It will have to wait now.

Fail

I have been trying to write a new song for hours this morning. I have failed miserably.

Metal Mash Mummy

I hope everyone had a safe Halloween! Here is my new music video launched yesterday.



I am playing my Jackson SLSMG in Drop Bb, with DR DDT 13-65 gauge strings. My tone was derived from POD Farm. The main rhythm guitars were only dual-tracked, as well as the occasional lead guitars. You are hearing EZdrummer DFH, a church organ vst, and a eerie synth vst. The bass was recorded with my guitar, as in POD Farm. The scary sounds came from a pack included with my Sony Vegas Movie Studio 10 software - I only added effects.

I've been working hard on this the past week for you guys. It's finally here in record time. I almost hate this song now that I have heard it sooooo many times. I have been trying to post it to Facebook, which I have, but the thumbnail is not showing. Maybe that's why people skip over it. Perhaps if they saw a mummy, they would stop and click. I will check later today, after work, and see if YouTube/Facebook fixed it. I want to post it again on my fan page with the thumbnail showing. A quick Google search tells me this issue has happened before at least once. Not sure which company is at fault. It's annoying! Just when I want to promote my video! It's probably Facebook, if I were to take a guess. It posts here as you see; although, it's embedded.
