life of agony

• keith caputo nun ayrilmasiyla tarihe gomulen, bir donem hayatimiza anlam katan insan evlatlarinin toplamina verilen isim.
• whitfield crane kardeşimiz, çığırmış, zıplamış, böğürmüş, fakat ne yapsa eski ugly kid joe fan'lerine yaranamamıştır.
• keith caputo'nun gruba dönmesiyle dirilmiş hardcore canavarları. mayıs ayında broken valley isimli yeni albümlerini çıkaracaklar. geçen sene "river runs again" isimli konser albümleriyle zıplatmışlardı zaten.

• keith caputo geçtiğimiz hafta şöyle bir röportaj verdi,
  
  the metal show: when [the other guys in the band] came out with the guy from ugly kid joe [whitfield crane], they should not have called that life of agony. it was always your attitude, more than your voice, that made life of agony work. were you insulted that they tried to do that?
  
  keith caputo: "i was not insulted, but i was very proud that i followed my heart because it was decisions like those that infuriated me and i had no control over. there wasn't a common ground. the range of communication were closed. alan [robert, bass] and joey [z, guitar] made a lot of decisions in the past that i kind of...i didn't agree with a lot of decisions that were made in the band. i felt like i had no voice, and i felt like i was role-less. i felt like that. it was a very ego-driven thing when we were kids. i was very different than the other guys. yeah, i wear my emotions and my heart on my fuckin' sleeve. i bleed every night to sing these songs. nothing against ugly kid joe and that whole thing. i would never put anyone down creatively, but ugly kid joe is a joke rock band. it's a spoof. to have that guy, or to have those guys think that he could replace, which he couldn't, replace the blood-thirsty determination of what i'm saying and how i'm saying it; it was things like that that really infuriated me. i knew i did the right thing. when i heard, i was like, 'oh my god.' i know they had nowhere else to turn. you can't find another guy like me, and that's not sounding presumptuous. there's not a lot of singers out there like me. there's a lot of singers that plug in every night that don't know how to tap inside their own heart and soul and bleed for the music and for the people. that's what i do. i serve. i live to serve. it was decisions like that that actually made me feel good about leaving the band. i'm like, 'these guys still aren't learning.' they aren't learning about a lot of things — about themselves, about brotherhood. it was just a really weird time for all of us. i respect the fact that they wanted to carry on, but it was only a matter of time. i knew it. everyone else knew it. people know where it's coming from. i'm not fucking around. i'll die poor in a box of my music, covered in life. i know i can't take anything to my grave with me, and i sing every fucking show like it's my last. that's my attitude."
• keith caputonun solo calismalarinin ardinda gectigimiz yil gruba donup new yorkta gerceklestirdikleri iki comeback konserleriyle halen varolduklarini gosteren harika grup. her albumle birlikte degisik tarzlar deneyip daha da olgunlasan grup gectigimiz ay cikarttiklari yeni albumleriyle yine yeni soundlar pesinde kosmus.
• güzel tarzlarını bırakıpta "hadi yeni bişiiler deneyelim" tadında albüm çıkaran grup.ne de güzeldi eskiden...
• müziğin heartcore olduğu zamanlar. feci bir sıcak var, phil anselmoüzerinde crowbar ve eyehategod t-shirtleriyle dolanıyor, moskova’da pogo yapılıyor. kadıköy’de, yerde ev yapımı kasetlerin elden ele geçtiği dönemler devam ederken, bir trade sonucunda river runs reddüşüyor elimize. bir intihara yolculuğu anlatıyor, eğitimli sesiyle keith caputo ve saz arkadaşları, o yaz zıplatıyor orada burada, mtv alternatif programlardan takip ediliyor, konserlerde kendini kanatırken ve öncesinde ve sonrasında bir şişe birayla gülümserken. albümün sonundaki jilet sesi, son nota, bir daha yaşanmaz.
• dünyanın en güzel 5 grubu içerisinde kesinlikle yer alan ve müthiş zevkle dinlenen müzisyenler topluluğu
• mina caputo'lu yeni halini canlı izleme şansı yakalamış biri olarak enerjisine hasta olduğum gruptur. 12 yıl sonra bomba gibi bir şarkıyla döndüler; bu yaz bol bol dinleyeceğiz demektir.
