...and its all coming back to me.

Over the past several months I have been writing music for my next album.  There has been a larger than normal gap between this upcoming release and the album before it, "Allusions Within".  Ideally I would like to finish  the new album tomorrow and get it in stores and itunes by Tuesday.  However, there is a different feeling in the air with this one.  The level of precision and pride that I have taken with this album is different than any other project I have worked on.  I do not have an answer as to why this is.  

As I finished typing the last paragraph a thought came to me. I just realized that the Perfect Generation album was originally released (nearly) 10 years ago.  PG released, "Thoughts of Today's Youth" right before I turned 16.  This August I will be 26, and my new album will be released before or right after my Birthday.  

One of the things I love most about writing is that it forces me to look inward.  It forces me to think about my life and the various experiences that caused me to laugh, cry, smile or become angry.  The real magic happens when I can put an experience that I have had into a song and have it translate into the ears of my audience in an emotional / moving way.  

Thank you for giving me this opportunity.
