Your ignorance has been observed.

Yep, that's me. And yep, behind me is The Grand Canyon. And yup, that's me falling down into it. A proven example of my luck. It's bad because I fell in, but it's also pretty damn good luck because I'm still in your face screaming and typing words for you to read. I'm one of the very few people to have survived this, I even got a free bookmark that says so.


Hello once again or for the first time! I'm glad to see you came back to our blog or I'm glad you chose to come check out our blog! (I like to cover both sides, you know. Tactical, precision wording. Nevermind.) So I hope everybody's been bad little Villains since last we spoke. Or should I say, if you weren't good, I hope that you were good at it! Let's start off this memoir by getting DOWN TO BUSINESS!!! YEAH!!!!!

We're officially at the point where we're awaiting a call concerning an official date of production for our music video for "Sock Puppet Vendetta"!!!! I can say with a certain amount of confidence that it will be in October (next month!) We're all very, very excited about this because let's face it, nobody ever expects to get to do a video or anything like that -it's usually just a hope or a "best-case scenario" type thing. Maybe the rest of the guys don't feel that way but I do. And knowing the details of it, just you wait until you see this thing in completion. I can't wait to make it, nonetheless see it! A few spoilers for the obsessed fans who can't wait to see it(Yes, we do receive your flowers and restraining order appeals.): Dennis, Jason, Alex, and Mike will all die their own deaths amongst crazy live shots only to rise and forever be damned to playing some of the fiercest technical, death metal you have ever heard! And yes, it is tied in to a sock puppet, but you have to read the lyrics and figure that one out for yourself. ;-) We will Blog the Official Start Production Date as soon as we find out! YAY!

We have a show in Lakeland, FL this Saturday (Sept. 26, 2009) at the Old School Compound Skatepark in downtown Lakeland! It's a benefit show to help keep Psycho Realms WMNF 88.5FM Tampa Metal on the radio and commercial free! It should be pretty fun screaming at kids on skateboards and such. I hope someone kisses concrete right in front of us and then they get completely swarmed in the mosh pit, disappearing forever! Want to make it even sweeter for me??? I hope the previous happens as we hit the peak of energy in one of our songs! Or maybe all that go can be at least as active as these pussies!!!! Yeah, I'll settle for that!

We have replenished our sticker stock, so please just come talk to us and visit the merch station and we'll make sure you get hooked up with those! We'll even give you 2 if you reference this blog, that way you can have one and then you can stick the other one somewhere you're not supposed to.

I officially think that Koala's should be outlawed and taken out of the wild completely. They look way to nice and gentle to be such vicious beasts. Approx. 58 people a year are attacked(globally) and most have suffered deep gashes at the minimum. And then comes the disease...everybody know koala's carry disease and are related to the rodent family. Cousin's to opossums and brother to the rat, I aim to eradicate the most dangerous threat to mankind. Goddamn koala's.

We did not win the Bingo game the other night at Alex's Cougar's house. Unfortunately. I'm still claiming that old bitch scammed me.

I served a table today at work and the lady I was serving said her son was Autistic. So I said that I like to draw and that I'd like to see some of the paintings he's done. She was not happy with me. I almost got fired, but then I caught up with her before she reached management and gave her a tour of my trunk. That was a nerve-racking drive home! And that's what I get for not wearing earplugs at practice.



From Dennis with love,

So, a priest and a butcher walk into a bar...

Hello there Villainous Villains! Dennis and Mike here doing QTV's first ever DUO BLOG! The picture above is a little glimpse into last year's Halloween costumes. It was drunken madness! Anyways, we wanted to clear the air for anybody wondering where Zack's name disappeared to. Well friends, sadly, Zack had to resign from the band due to personal issues. We are sad, but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do and we support him in his endeavors. This does not slow our progress down at all, as of this very minute we have 1 min. of a new song written. Sock Puppet Vendetta was brutal, Frontier Justice was intense, and the new song...'Choking a Sloth'...is........ not finished yet! HA HA! But we can say that it is technical and keeps that brutal aspect right in your face! We'll see, but we think you'll like it! Once this song is written, we'll be more than half way done writing the new EP! We're getting things done!

Mike says, "Butter your pasta so it doesn't stick to the pan, BAM!- and it will give it more flavor!" Trust me folks, this guy knows his butter. Now, gather around and we're going to tell you a story...

The Legend of Cougar Bait. Some of you may be aware that Mike, Jason, and myself have been known to call Alex "Cougar Bait." There is a reason. Our dear friend Alex cannot go into a bar where a cougar is located and come out without being pawed at or licked, sometimes even scratched. One instance, we had a show in Jensen Beach and it was definitely one for the books! Other than there being a brawl, Cougar Bait was being himself just like any other night, and lo and behold, the cougar shows herself. This one, was around him the whole night at the bar, at the merch table, it was incredible. We could have had a place to stay, but Alex didn't want to give the cougar the chance to sink her teeth into him while he was sleeping. He needs to suck it up so for one night so that the rest can sleep comfortably while he takes one for the team. Next tour, it's gonna happen, rest assured. We don't know how he does it, but he is quite the guy I will say. It's inspiring to sit back and watch as these cougars pounce on him. Another night, we played a show with the legendary Malevolent Creation, and again, Alex is at the bar, and there she is... he's hanging out and she bought not one or two drinks, but ALL his drinks. I'm pretty sure she cupped his balls in public, though he denies it. Next time you see him at our shows, just ask him about the cougar whose house he ran away from early one January morning.

We're hungry, so we're going to go get some food. Come to our shows and buy our merch so that we can buy food that doesn't come on a dollar(value) menu. Please. We will post again soon, so stay tuned!!!

Keeping it brutal,
Mike
Dennis

Unexplained Phenomenon

Hello. Jason here. That's me on the left about half a second before we teleported. Our experiment succeeded, but we only moved four inches to the right.

Somehow, it seems the wrathful (and as yet unrecognized by any widely accepted religion) gods of metal have smiled upon us. QTV has been selected to appear on Mecha Organa Vol.2. It's a compilation put out by The Apparatus featuring 16 of the finest unsigned tech bands on the planet. If you click the flyer over there ---> it will take you to a free download. We promise, it's worth the three minutes it will take to download. 16 bands that represent the future of metal for free. We're literally going to explode from how awesome it is.

In other news, we're taking it easy on shows for September and October. We're trying to stick to a schedule of one per month. There are two primary reasons for this. One: we have a new bass player that has to be brought up to speed on the rest of the set. The next time we play live with Zack, it will be a full set. Two: we're trying to get a five song EP written, recorded, artistically rendered, and pressed by the end of the year. Two songs are written, one is recorded. We still have a lot of work to do. In September, we're playing in Lakeland with the mighty Unkempt. It's a benefit show to help finance an independant, metal only radio show. A worthy cause, no? In October we have something extra special lined up. On the 23rd we're playing a no cover show in the Orlando area. While we are playing, young ladies will be dancing on poles in various states of undress. Seriously. We're trying to put together the most tech lineup Orlando has seen in a while so we can see the looks on their faces when they attempt to dance to it.
