No More Armageddons

No More Armageddons

Took a bit longer than I'd thought, although most of the time was spent trying to learn new guitar techniques and practicing them. Pretty happy with it now, though. Throwing in some of my grungier roots!

Was trying to get down this awesome lightning-scale Buckethead technique used in Nottingham Lace of rapidly ascending and descending two strings, double hammer on the highest note. Practiced till my forearm fell off and fingers were screaming hellfire with every hammeron-pulloff, but I definitely think I improved.

Rock onwards!


Let’s hit the big time
load up on funds and bring your friends
everyone loses
when it pays to lose and to pretend

oh god we’re surrounded
by thieves and their undead
aim for the head now
this is the last chance we’ll get

Momma said that I was so exceptional
But the bigger you are, the harder you fall


No there’s No more Armageddons
This is the end of the line
Baby we’re all out of sequels
And it’s pay back time


Let’s hit the disco
Party like it’s 1933
The sky that is falling
Is never the sky you think.

Screw the new boss
still borrowed time and borrowed lies
Tear down the wall now
Before the wall tears down everything in spite

Momma said that I was so exceptional
But the bigger you are, the harder you fall

No there’s No more Armageddons
This is the end of the line
Baby we’re all out of sequels
And it’s pay back time

All you puppets on the left
All you puppets on the right
Come on get up and do the zombie bank tonight

No there’s No more Armageddons
This is the end of the line
Baby we’re all out of sequels
And it’s pay back time

No more
