It looks like I'm back in song writing saddly... has it really been 18 months? Then again I did have glandular fever for the a 12 of those months which kept me off the guitar.

Had a lovely family Chinese meal on Sunday which put me in a good mood, got back home did some practise and just hit a good riff. Bingo! Usually when I write a song the guts of it are completed within an hour, this was a rare exception. The chorus took a little work but was completed in the first hour as we snippets of verses but overall the entire thing wasn't. Normally that's a death sentence for me, but for once I worked through it.

The following night I polished things off, but I'm still wary. There's an abundance of lyrics and chords, but I'm not satisfied! May come back to it but at least there is something presentable; we have a tune!

What's it like? Very riff heavy, a LOUD and a personal song. Exactly what I haven't written in ages. It had crossed my mind that album #2 will open with a bang (Ethereal Engagement, Anguish, both are loud and catchy) but then peter out as I have an abundance of slow or depressing songs.

 Something in your face and rocky was required... that's exactly what this new song is. Perfect. :-D
