Drunk Student: Excuse me…
Me: (taking out my earphones) Yes?
Drunk Student: Can I ask you a question?
Me: Yes.
Drunk Student: What do you do if someone smashed a bottle over your head?
Me: Has someone smashed a bottle over your head?
Drunk Student: Yeah, I'm not bleeding or anything, I don't need to go to the hospital. I just … when I'm at uni tomorrow I don't think I'll be able to stop myself from punching him or something. I mean who smashes a bottle over their mate's head, eh? Who does that?
Me: Well I'm afraid I don't get involved in people's personal affairs, so I couldn't possibly comment. I think you should just go home.

Lab meat →
I’d heard about this a while back - sounds like a pretty interesting and potentially awesome idea. I am, however, concerned by this quote: “The global demand for meat is expected to rise by 60 percent by 2050, said American scientist Nicholas Genovese”

It came to my attention that there was some nasty clipping noises on this record (particularly in the song “Phobic”). My apologies for a total rookie mistake; it’s my worst nightmare to release something that is below standards in audio quality. I have remastered the entire thing in order to fix this, and believe it is now as it should be. Sadly I cannot fix the problem for...

This album is awesome. Get it down your bones before I grind them and make some soup for my flatmate.

This post summarises my existence way too well.
When I’ve got work to be done, you can be damned sure this will happen. http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/2010/06/this-is-why-ill-never-be-adult.html I can only admit this now, after I’ve handed in my final assignment for the year. Somehow I thought I’d feel pretty good, but instead I just feel a bland sense of “you could have done better”.

New album
I’m hopefully going to have a new album ready to release through my Bandcamp page. It’s a bit of a weird one, compiling recording I’ve made dating back to I don’t quite know when (pretty sure one I found on a dictophone is Finchap rehearsing circa 2004) as well some letter dictations made by my grandpa about 11 years before I was born. That’s all the details I can...
