Up Coming Releases to Meh About: Meh...

As the cynicism of instantaneous access and musical disillusionment begin to poison my every thought and alter the color of my blood to a dull, sleepy grey, I have decided to declare the year 2013 as "The Year of Meh."

I mean really, how can anyone be excited for music anymore?  Why bother?  All of it's free and sounds exactly the fucking same... I don't know guys.  How many more times can we listen to the same band repeat the same sounds from the early 90's over and over and over.  How many more Nintendocore guitar sweeps and type-writer drums can we stomach?  How many more times can I refer to the production style as "murky" and "static-choked" before those adjectives lose all meaning?(Actually they kind of already have...)

Meh... here's some upcoming releases to steal off the internet, listen to once and never listen to again...

 
I don't know man, normally I'd be so fucking excited for the new Cultes des Ghoules.  I mean yeah I pre-ordered it on two formats, but why?  I'm just wasting my money, since I already downloaded the European CD rip.  I've already listened to the album once and forgot about it.  It's just more of the same, even if the album is incredible and amazing and worth owning on two formats and an early album of the year contender... meh

 
 Hasn't this leaked yet?  I mean everything leaks.  I want the leak man.  I'm not sure why, cause this new song fucking sucks.  Remember when Deeds of Flesh were making some of the greatest Brutal Death Metal imaginable?  Remember Path of the Weakening?  That shit was really wicked, even on the 192 kbps rip I downloaded.  I actually listened to that one twice.  Now Deeds of Flesh sound like every other lame Brutal Tech Death band on the planet: over-produced, toothless and wanky.  The definition of meh...

 Shit man, this one is gonna blow up the internet when it leaks.  Wait, it leaked?  When?  Can someone hook me up with a link?  Seriously, I can't live without hearing this.  Not that I even like Portal or anything.  But what else am I supposed to listen to on my 80 GB iPod all day?  Shit I actually want to listen to?  This new song is actually pretty cool though, sounds like the best Portal album so far.  But still pretty meh I guess...

 
 Man, this new song fucking sucks.  Will probably still download.


 New Wormed huh?

....

FUCK YEAH!


Ok, so maybe 2013 has some pretty cool shit on the horizon.  Maybe there is some shit to get excited about and a lot to look forward too.  Maybe there isn't a good reason for all my apathy and instant access fatigue...

No, fuck music.
