As a writer, I never paid much attention to the length of titles. I've just wanted them to communicate the emotional overtones of the content of a record or song that they are describing

If anything, I feel that the current generation of listeners of heavy music are progressing a bit passed their gateway bands and are digging deeper than they used to and understanding more abrasive and complex music and art. It's like being around an unfamiliar language long enough that it eventually begins to make sense.

I feel that people spend as much time skipping songs as they do listening to them in their library.

I've never been a fan of bands that go out and celebrate their age, I'd rather be celebrated for being relevant.

I feel that people who are new to punk/hardcore don't truly understand the music and the role it plays in people's lives until they experience the environment for themselves.

I am far from an "old" person in human terms, however I've spent over half my life immersed in the punk rock and hardcore community. I am not wholly defined by that as a person, but it is something that has been part of me for a long time.

Though a song may race by in a minute and a half, every aspect of it is calculated and intentional.
