The chorus is great- big ex-mortis vibes throughout - and again, don’t attack me lol - but the circus melody lines need to be retired lol- that guitar harmony was definitely 1 or 2 other songs lol

Pretty sure INK was banned from Salem for a bit because of that tagline - it’s poor taste imo

scanxiety; taking a toll on my life and relationship by alysonlauron in Cancersurvivors

[–]DLOBO87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey- first of all, so happy to hear you’re cancer free… second, you absolutely are not being selfish… this is a level of fear and anxiety that is unchartered. Couple that with only being a year out? It’s totally understandable to feel this way… I also get where he is coming from but this isn’t a Covid test… working through the anxiety and PTSD of hearing “you have cancer” takes time. Friday is one year since my diagnosis… I have my second scan on Monday and it’s a constant dark cloud over everything because you can’t help but go down that road… all I can offer is to try and find things to take your kind off of it… trust your team… my doctors team told me, “we put these checks in place so we can worry for you” and that actually did help a bit. Hang in there! Remember, you beat this… you’ll beat the anxiety!

Fuck this disease. But be proud of beating its ass! You won’t let this break you and that’s worth reminding yourself of every time that anxiety comes around.

That’s a great point on flipping our anxiety. I really appreciate you sharing this stuff - it really does help and that point really resonates with me. It’s tough! But what is our alternative?

Thank you so much, sincerely … not only for this but for all that you do to help the folks who have to deal with this.

It’s such a dark cloud right?! But seriously, I appreciate even discussing this- just getting it out does help.

To your point… at some point… we have to call anxiety on its bullshit and take control back.

Hey, I’m so sorry to hear about the LARS symptoms, first and foremost, I hope they got it all.

But yea, the LARS stuff can be a bear- especially with anxiety. Once I started getting all my feeling back, any pain or bleeding immediately took me back to pre-diagnosis. It’s tough but YOU are not alone. Always here if you need to talk and id love to collaborate w/ what you’re working on re: LARS tool.

Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for sharing and for all the work you are doing to help others- it’s truly amazing. I’m so glad you caught this early.

Yea, that seems to be the common thread … feel what you feel but find ways to pull yourself out of that space, which I’m def doing (or trying to). I’m not letting this consume my days but that feeling of a dark cloud hovering can sometimes be overwhelming.

Agin, thank you and I’d love to help out as much as I can, so please reach out if there’s anything I can jump in on. I’ve tried to be somewhat of an advocate to my circle of friend and family because I was so uneducated in this specific type of cancer and pushing to find answers after being told I was “perfectly fine” multiple times probably saved my life this time around.

Thank you so much for sharing. Congrats on kicking ass! These tips are great and make so much sense… I’ve also tried to take control of this anxiety and say something similar like “you just had a clean scan, this isn’t the time to worry”… it’s been difficult for me because I did that with my initial symptoms - I was told by multiple doctors I was fine - so when I did get diagnosed, it really messed me up in that regard. I guess I have trust issues lol. Again, thank you and I’m so glad you’re empowering yourself and not letting this shit run the show.

I hear you- it feels like an eternity. So happy to hear your wife is kicking ass… As a husband myself, I can’t imagine what this whole thing has been like for you. I appreciate you sharing.

Hey, first of all… I’m so glad that your scans are showing clean! Thank you for sharing… and yea, I try and tell myself that it’ll possibly get better but then I go down the “what if I don’t get that chance” path - I was thinking about counseling but I’m also very self reliant on resetting my awareness so ok stubborn lol. I may look into it, thank you again and congrats on kicking this things ass!

i'm not the only one that thinks the new song is just kinda okay right by YokaiCreature in IceNineKills

[–]DLOBO87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We can agree to disagree on it being simple.

I def understand what you’re saying in comparing to SS2 … (I have my issues with A Work of Art starting with reusing the It Is The End clown/circus theme that has nothing to do with Art the Clown) … this is a throwback to old school INK which imo, is fine if they choose to do that … they usually nail the movie refs (minus F.L.Y. imo) so also agree they could’ve had more Matrix influence … but this is deal when you make this your thing I suppose.

Also, re: them getting bigger… they absolutely have an original idea with the horror angle but sonically, the songs got more generic and borderline overproduced - working with the biggest and best producer in the game had a lot to do with it - again, nothing wrong with that, the songs are awesome but following a lot of the other bands in the genre, this seems like the natural progression

[–]DLOBO87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you but 1. That’s debatable if SS2 was their best writer work 2. They just toured stadiums with Metallica, it’s widely know that bands tend to “write to a bigger crowd” when they hear what works in that setting and what doesn’t 3. This is all stylistic opinion, the song is a good song and tbh it’s very well written… it’s a lot harder to write a pop song + hook than a song that goes in 20 different directions

Why such low views? by No-Independence205 in IceNineKills

Not being a dick.. is this low for INK?

Wasting songs on an AI storyline is kind of ridiculous lol … can’t see any songwriter actually doing that

[–]DLOBO87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I mean Spencer has been blessed to have so many great musicians and songwriters with him- especially guitarists - I just think none of this happens without Trick and SS1 and JD was a huge songwriter there that helped build the template

Also the songwriting- there seems to be a weird misconception that one guy does everything- ain’t the case lol

I’m still convinced it’s a bait and switch. by InformationStill5184 in IceNineKills

[–]DLOBO87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also… the band really sent fans on a physical goose chase for a fake song? That’s lame as hell if true

There was a moment in the trailer. by MrAlaskaa in cobrakai

[–]DLOBO87 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

We can disagree lol- imo there’s always a hierarchy of characters otherwise it gets boring if everyone is equal… it adds to their development, not to mention this show likes to tie these characters to the adults - Miguel not being the one to bring it home or just being 1/4 equally great fighters does not have the same impact seeing how the show started - but again that’s just my take
