Deviating from normal format means it’s one of those BEST OF types of columns, things I’m sure you have already seen all over Inside Pulse and will continue to see until, well, February, if many of the staff members keep with their punctuality records. Unfortunately for the website, I rather dislike lists and compilations. I [...]

Summertime Blues, News, and Views: The Danger of Simplicity
Category: Archive, Dissection, Inside Pulse, News | Leave a Comment
I have actually heard precious little holiday music this year. In fact, I believe I have heard Adam Sandler’s “Hannukah Song” more than any Christmas songs. I can’t figure it out for the life of me; I live in a very Catholic town, and we’re mere days from the biggest holiday of the year. When [...]

I was up ungodly late last night. Those who know my taste in music probably know why. I’m not going to tell some big story about how much I loved Pantera or any of that. Yeah, I loved them when I was younger. I wrote a piece for IP a couple of months ago about [...]

Category: Archive, Dissection, Inside Pulse, News | Leave a Comment
The holiday season is jumping up in full force, and so has the horrid holiday music. I have never made any secret of the fact that I can’t stand Christmas music. Even in my New Kids On the Block fandom days, I wasn’t too keen on whipping out their Christmas album. It doesn’t help that [...]

Cool acquisition of the day: Martika’s album. The holiday season sucks, as most big releases come out around Thanksgiving and then we’re faced with doldrums until the end of January. Until then, it’s the joys of filling in a back catalog of sorts. Speaking of which: Buckethead. Most of you may only know him as [...]

Gloomchen: The LiveJournal Interview.

Is it true you just missed the cut for American Idol 2003? I don’t think they would take well to drunken karaoke auditions. And I’m too old :( Aside from music, what is a true passion of yours? I’ll exempt writing from this too, to keep the question from being too easy to answer. I [...]
