Lets make a huge group called Heroin

http://www.last.fm/group/Heroin

its already made but everyone can join!!!!

I realize that it's sad that I have been here to listen to roughly 97% of the 100k...I think once I get to 100k I will add tags to some of the songs...

Lostprophets dominate my Top Artists by about 6200 plays over The Offspring. Give it Up has dominated my Top Track forever...

I also am trying to figure out why Ohio Is for Lovers is still #50 on my tracks.. It hopefully will soon be removed.

I have listened to 431 tracks more than 100 times. Also, I have more than 100 plays for 88 artists.

I would like to thank www.YTMND.com for 200+ of my songs.

There are tons of artists I blame my sister for importing them to my iTunes. Trace Atkins, Hillary Duff*Cringe* and George Strait.

I hope to be a part of Last.fm (Formerly Audioscrobbler) for long time to come.

If you read this, please comment on anything. If you hate me, say why. If you have a question for me, ask away. If you love me... Call me.

There's finally a new song at myspace.com/scottsalsman available for streaming and downloading. I just finished it. I hope you enjoy it; it's designed to make you dance.

I'm going to put some of my better post-Swivel Theorist recordings on a CD for a friend of mine. Let me know if you'd like a copy. Or heck, I could just put them here, and you can make your own darn CD:

So I'm deciding to do this as a result of the most impressive guitar display that I have seen live. On Sunday, April 2nd, I had the chance to see Thomas Erak perform guitar and vocals with The Fall of Troy. Now, I had not given this band much of a chance before, but after seeing all of the crazy fratwork and tempo changes their
guitarist does with such great energy, all that has changed. So here's a short list of my absolute favorite guitarists. I will add on to this as I think of more. Also, I'd appreciate some suggestions.

1) Paul Waggoner, Between the Buried and Me


*This picture taken by yours truly.

He is known for a unique and highly technical playing style, which is featured in many of the band's elongated guitar solos. He, along with Tommy Giles Rogers Jr., are the only members of the band that have been members since the beginning.


2) Thomas Erak, The Fall of Troy


Thomas Erak is the guitar player and lead singer for the Mukilteo, Washington based prog-rock/post-hardcore band. He is better known for the complex guitar riffs that he plays and individual vocal style.


3) Sathonys, Agathodaimon


AGATHODAIMONs dark metal avantgarde is displaying a huge variety of styles combined to a new musical cavalcade. Poetic lyrics, misantrophic, yet darkly romantic and conterintuitive melancholic, sourrounded by devastating riffs, rooting in black- and deathmetal, decorated with modern keyboard elements, carrying earwick melodies and atmosphere.


4) Markus Jämsen, Swallow the Sun


The atmospheres presented by Swallow The Sun are thick and heavy. There's an ominous sound that echoes throughout each song and the swirling of the music beckons an unseen oncoming storm. Slow weaving and soothing passages take you deeper and deeper into the cataclysms of doom and dread.


5) Kit Wray, Into the Moat


Into the Moat is representative of the Mathcore genre, although band members prefer the term tech metal. As a sub-category of the tech hardcore or "chaos-core" classifications, at first impression their music is merely chaotic noise. Upon further listening, their technical musicianship comes to the fore. Some of their compositions recall Stravinsky in that they appear almost primitive with atonal notation and rapid rythmic changes.

If your using FF all my pics are cut off, because AS decided you dont need any space for pics aparently.

So.. on the way downtown my friend noticed this cool building so I had to take a picture. Kinda a bad pic but the lights say ROCK.

So we got to Peabody's and had to wait in line for a half hour and once we got in it was just in time to see Between the Burried and Me finishing up. Fucking Peabody's the one time they don't have half a million local acts, it causes me to miss BTBAM. And how is thier going to be a long as line after the first two bands are already finished, Haste the Day was before BTAM, and I missed them as well.

Every Time I Die
Ok so when did it become the thing for little hardcore fags to hardcore dance while crowd serfing?
If you wanna hardcore dance be a man and do it with everyone else, don't be too pussy to take a punch yourself. I noticed someone took one of these fags shoes, so that became my objective, but I only got one shoe off, and it slipped away from me so I couldn't throw it.
Whenever someone tried to use my sholder to jump up I just bushed them off and let them fall to thier faces. Normaly at a show im real helpful to make sure crowd surfers dont fall or stay on the ground long, but this one I just had to shove them straight to the ground.
Anyway between songs it got real silent at one point and I yelled for them to play 'Logic of Crocodiles' and I know they heard me but they just ignored me.. fags.
So yea I had my camera on the wrong mode so I kinda got a lot of bad pics.





Bleeding Through
So Bleeding Through came out to Johnny Cash, and rocked the place with that great intro "I don't give a Fuck!"
They actually played two songs from thier best album "Portrait of the Goddess" and as when ETID played thier old shit none of the Harcore fags knew any of it, and that is when the pit was the best. Rock out to real breakdowns not that pussy dancecrap.
Just so happens the one good picture I got was of the hot keyboardest chick.

As I promised last weekend, I took down my first album so I could put up the second one, and here it is. Time Flies is different from RADIANT; it's less jazzy and focuses more on pop music. By the fall of 2004 (about six months after the release of RADIANT) I was no longer using "Swivel Theorist" as my pseudonym but as my project's name, a project that included fellow vocalists/songwriters Amy Thomasson and Wendy Kraf. Amy didn't actually work on this album, but I used her vocals from the first one in a remix of "Altogether Lovely". Wendy sang for a couple of these songs and wrote one of them.

This album contains several songs that I didn't write. Besides the one Wendy wrote, there are a few covers and a couple of remixes (see the credits below). It starts out with a bit of a sermon-like song, but it goes in several different directions after that. There's also a bonus track that Paul McCartney fans may find either interesting or blasphemous. It was meant as a tribute.

So here it is. Some of you may wish to change the artist name to Scott Salsman before you 'scrobble the tracks, and that would be great.
