"Swallowed Hole" will actually contain the phrase, "swallowed whole in negatives."
But the album itself will be drowned partially in positives.

Bumping my own post. I'm just not sure if this had been confirmed in this thread and I missed it.

One way would be to move any drummer conversation to a drummer thread.

I think we're going to get Sirens as a single this week. That reliable poster on AlternativeNation said we're getting a second single 'very soon' so this is just a stab in the dark.

Wow, this is news to me. Because on the very first day of my 5-year-old's drum lessons, he learned whole notes, half notes, quarter notes, and eighth notes. And his teacher, who drummed for Buddy Guy for 20 years, knows a thing or two about drumming.
if his teacher was any good wouldn't he STILL be drumming for Buddy Guy?

I'm guessing Monday, which is annoying because there's something I don't want to be doing this Saturday.

Not if he's a session musician. Most drummers are.

as long as they pepper it with the words "you're wrong, hipster" it'll barely matter who.

"I'm running out of places I can hide from this." A classic morose catchy NIN line. I don't like the King of Limbs guitar stabs but it's a really good song this one.

Wrong thread. Meant to be in the NIN one. I have too many threads to manage here.
