The Gateway To Hell; Sickness

I just found out about this. It's really cool. Apparently in Turkmenistan, they were drilling for oil when a huge hole collapsed beneath the rig, releasing natural gas. They decided to burn it instead of capturing it, but instead of going out in 2-3 days like they hoped, it's been burning ever since. They even call it "The Gateway/Door To Hell". In my next blog I'll tell about my other obsession, Centralia, PA.

Now, as the title shows, I am feeling very under the weather. Hopefully this will go away soon. I'd prefer not to miss school, and more importantly, miss seeing my girlfriend. On a different note, Ov Hell's new album, The Underworld Regime, came out, and I'm truly digging it. It's everything good about black metal (the atmosphere, evil lyrics, diabolical sounding chords and riffing) without all the bad stuff (trash production, same lyrical themes over and over).

On another different note, I have not had any halfway-decent caffeine in three days, and it REALLY sucks. I'm a bit of an addict (caffeine is one of my vices) and going without isn't very fun at all, at all.

By the way, those who read this, check this out: www.myspace.com/decayingmyyouth
It's my new one man project, focused on atmospheric, doomy death metal. I think you'll like it.

Later,
