Any Means Necessary!

Lately I've been spending so much time trying to form up my band, thinking of ways to make it big, doing mainstream and crowd-pleasing stuff to ensure survivability, that I think I kind of lost touch with myself in the process. I didn't realise this until one fine day, a good friend, whom I also jammed with quite a bit, whom I even taught guitar to, sent me a message about the latest album from Hammerfall.

It had been some time since I listened to metal, and I decided to just give it a listen, and as miraculously as the flowers popping out of the desert after a storm, I suddenly felt alive again! I usually would take some time to get the hang of the mainstream crap that we had been doing, but it was different for this little return to metal. I feel alive when I play the music I love, and it is the very reason I even play.

I think I've found the way, and while it may not be pleasing to most ears, at least I'm playing what I truly want to play! Make no mistake, I'll still do that mainstream shit, but nothing makes me get into the music more than metal!

And so, I bring you:

Any Means Necessary by Hammerfall!!
