Thankyou gents, thankyou.

In retrospect, that interview editor saved my arse. I read what I'd sent him just today and was like WOOOOAAAAH. I ripped on everyone.

Where the hell is Rhino? I promised him sludge dammit.

now i'm curious to know who else got it besides the record labels

it's too bad so many other bands rely on them as their primary source of income and don't have the luxury of speaking honestly like that.

[quote name="beandorkio"]In what has to be the most narcissistic thing I've done as an adult, the new CD will be released on my birthday: february 18th.

No labels - it's going via CdBaby electronic distro so you can pick it up at I-Tunes, Amazon, etc etc etc etc. They cover everything and everyone electronic.[/quote]

Haha, I might chuck the unedited version up on a blog when the new senseless website is up.

A through-the-rabbit-hole moment was when I realised that I didn't get any money - or anything, anymore especially emails - from labels, so in effect I had carte blanche to talk freely.

Did I mention the first solo on 'Far From Over' is done by MABB's own Ol Drake? He has a shred-off against Matt Berzerker in that track.

Ta! I tried to give it that drunken redneck new-orleans sludge quaint thing you so love

rhino · Post by **rhino** » 15 Feb 2012, 04:24

highly impressed beaner, from what i've heard this kicks in the realm in the ass. i thought this was only going to itunes but now i will buy the actual cd

beandorkio · Post by **beandorkio** » 15 Feb 2012, 04:51

Cool man. Yeah, I reckon it's a good leap from "In the Realm", especially with Leon's ridiculous drum-battery

Have to warn you though - there is no release date for physical CDs as yet.

Could be spring. Y'know, like that Morbid Angel album

[quote name="rhino"]np: death to metal

[/quote]

Ha. I've got to throw down the lyrics to that. That song is the sound of modern metal getting bashed for its lunch money:

Lets kill this party we started

Shrieking as real as a chick in cheap porn

Sweden and Florida should have your fucking royalties

Give 'em death

Death to Metal

Two hundred riffs do not a song make

Watching these stoners live the cliche

I'm hoping you bitches ignore my band

We still blow you pricks away

Death to Metal

Scum

There's nothing you can do

There's nothing you can say

I refuse

These stupid games

Broken children

Stupid names

Don't tell me about your pain

Entertain me, or f-ck 0ff

I'd kill and eat our heroes

But I like my meat fresh

Tin roof rusty!

<interlude: "You guys are the craaaaaaaziest mother-FUCKERS...(since last nights show)">

You made the best songs ever

Pulled giants from thin air

The underground hurdled by

Zeitgeist with mascara and a haircut

These accolades should be yours

These fakes have passed off as their own

The great revolution that never was

Now obscurity calls, stigma and shame

Victim

edit - ha got caught by the "i love you and i humbly regret any ill feeling between us"

I think I say it during that song more or less, just before quoting B52's "Love Shack"

beandorkio · Post by **beandorkio** » 15 Feb 2012, 13:54

The best metaphor would be Michael Bay movies. The CG/production is fantastic, the actors/musicianship are A-List, but the stories/songwriting are crap, and no volume of ideas/riffs can cover that.

Yeah. Had to stretch a bit to make that metaphor work

Great work, Sam. Seems like youve had a stressful time. It sounds like some mega-cathartic music though.

beandorkio · Post by **beandorkio** » 18 Feb 2012, 12:56

Here's the full blab I've been pumping out on facialbook:

happy birthday to me, now BUY MY ALBUM! And if death metal ain't your thing but you're gagging to give me a gift, then simply spread around the following blurb to where you think it'll do the most good:

The Senseless 'the floating world' out today. The amazon page is up and selling at:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00785 ... B00785RGJ8

This will be followed by (deep breath): CDbaby, Itunes, Napster, Emusic, Nokia, Tradebit, GreatIndieMusic, Zune, Last.fm, Deezer, Myspace Music, 24-7, Simfy, and MediaNet. Spotify maybe. Who knows, I was lost by Itunes...although I am old enough to remember Myspace. They selling music now?

beandorkio · Post by **beandorkio** » 18 Feb 2012, 17:56

Hahaha, phew! Was a bit concerned I'd have to offer customer support there!

Found out as well, the amazon link i've posted is for the US.

For other territories, head to your local amazon site and search up the band/album for the mp3s.

I'm sorry it's been an extremely exacting week because our Finance group project is due on Monday. We had to forecast future financials for a company. And I have to go in tomorrow to the university to put on the final touches. This MBA is killing me.

Devy, where did you purchase this album? All Amazon servers give me the same answer; Can't purchase this product outside blaa blaa.

Devy · Post by **Devy** » 20 Feb 2012, 02:17

I got it direct from CDBaby. Go to https://www.facebook.com/thes3ns3l3ss and click on the MusicStore link on the left. Then click "Artist's Albums", click the link to buy it and then follow the instructions from there. I don't know what the conversion rate from Dollars to Euros is, but I ended up paying £6.20

[quote name="Undercover Pheasant"]Are you parodying Floods but using a shower head for rain?

[/quote]

Ha, nah it's a real rain sample I took from an online library. I wanted one of the main sound references that you use when trying to fall asleep, like rain...already used the sea on the previous album!

Having said that...the main riff of White Flag is inspired by a progression from Floods. Completely unrecognisable, though.

I give you a warm shoulder rub and back massage. You like this.

[quote name="weekend park supervisor"]mabb: helping feed beano since 2012[/quote]

Actually, the sole efforts of MABB have subsumed the release costs - TOTALLY. You guys have powered me to almost 10% of my download target; once reached, then I start making physical CDs. I'm pretty stoked!

Someone actually purchased just the track 'Death To Metal' by itself. Probably one of the NYDM chapters, and the mp3 is circulating with a picture of my face right now
