Will you ever...

Cease to amaze me?
No.
You will not.
As a collective group.
Two groups.
Three groups.
My biggest inspirations.
Starting with my current listen.
The stream of Circa Survive's newest album(up now on their Myspace).

|BLUE SKY NOISE|

Good lord.

Such raw, unbridled emotion in such a smooth, put together package.
It's a lot more reigned in than their last albums, but it's no less emotive.
It's a concentrated mass of feeling, power and... I can't stop saying it, emotion.

Anthony Green has such a control over his voice.
It's a feeling of... Recklessness, but it's completely owned and controlled.
Like if you were to take a seat with a race car driver, that speed and power would appear uncontrolled to you, but to the driver, he's in complete control and knows just what he's doing.
Just raw emotion. It's all there, just listen.
Not to mention that artwork... Wow.
I'm enthralled by all forms of art, so I really get into every aspect of an album, get lost in that artist's universe.
They all create their own worlds and it's so amazing to wrapped in their myth.
That said...
No one, in my eyes(and ears), creates that world, the vision, the sound, the feeling better than my two biggest inspirations for all that I do.

30 Seconds To Mars and Angels & Airwaves.

Those bands, my heroes, have truly, complete universes.
I don't know if that's how they have envisioned them.
But that's clearly how I see them.
I don't think I can even begin to touch on the vastness and creativeness that they have created.

It's just a feeling and emotional state they place you in.
You just have to get lost in it.
Find the Universe for yourself.

Because, it can't be shown. I've tried on many occasions to describe the feeling and what I see, what I want to be done... But, it can only be said to extent, then it's for they to see. To feel.
I've gone through many a band member, searching. Looking for that musical, visionary, soul connection.
It's a really high place that I have envisioned.
Such major movements, such stunning pieces, bright lights, big stages, big sounds, Universal feelings, atmospheric touchings.
The best explanation is simply, a Universe.

That's what I have envisioned for SKS.
And I will not stop for anything short of everything I see.
A lifetime it will take and my lifetime I will give.

That's all I know, that's all I want.
To give myself to something so wholly and fully.
Pure dedication of this creation.

And it's not to say, please don't let it be assumed that I'm so wrapped up and in love with myself to allow for anything or anyone else, 'cause that definitely not it.
I won't be so conceited and narcissistic.
Though, I have been compared as such.
I won't claim to be a visionary, but I have a vision.
To share.
I want the world to know what goes on inside my head.
I want to showcase it, for whoever wishes to listen, to see, to dive into.
It won't be force fed, but it will be there.
An outlet. A Universe to be lost in. To enjoy yourself in.
Even trying to describe it now, it's difficult, I can't find the words to show what I mean and say what I feel and see.

More than music. More than sound.
An explosion of color, light, sound, energy, sweat and love.
An orgasm.
Ha.
But, how any Universe, in my belief, is created.
In one, epic, BIG BANG.
And then built from there.
Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither will a Universe be.
My Universe be.
Ours.
Grown from the core out.
That's the track I'm working on now.
The opener.
I'm doing this in order.

As a movement, the movement I see.
From the beginning to the ending.

Make The Universe.
Which was once "Take The Universe".
But before something can be had, it must first be created.
And as I see it now, what I want is not yet there, or here, and the only way to show, is to do.
So, I'm scrapping nearly everything SUNDAYkillSUNDAY thus far and starting anew.

Rebirth.
One of three ideals that I believe in, one of three that this SKS Universe will grow from.

Love.
Hope.
Rebirth.

Starting with the first track to Make The Universe.
"Big Bang Theory".
Tentatively titled.
A movement of sound and feeling into the growth, of a molecule, the birth of a star and the explosion of a Universe.

I sound so into myself...
But I'm not.
I just know what I want and I'm taking it.
I'm not being stopped.
And if conviction is wrong... If love, dedication and a vision are to be mocked...
Condemn me.
Mock me.

I know who I am as human.
I know what I will do.
I know I won't stop.
Do you?

Do you have a hold, a grip, an idea?

If we as humans lose vision, lose faith, lose dedication to ourselves and the world around us.

What are we doing?
Why are we here?
Make a move.
Make your move.
Let the world move at a thousand miles around you, but move with it.
Flow.

Sway.

Stay safe.

Stay dedicated.
Stay in love.

Stay yourself.
Stay human.
