You can't sell your soul to your devil because you don't own your soul in the first place.

Hell yeah Max- you sell out! Do it. Do it now!
So all you guys can finally get out to Cali and we can play together! ;)

that would just rock, Keggy!

news from Chout on your behalf? :)

Aha! Maybe you shoujld just write a really really good song about selling your soul to the devil! Then act like you sold your soul to the devil.

max 04.14.2009 08:45 PM

I don't wanna name the devil in my songs.
It's very standard. I tend to avoid cliches.
I wrote a song called SOCIAL FAILURE tho.

Society, failing: now that's a whole lot more than just this devil thing.

dearest max,

due to recent severe economic down-turns, the hard-value of souls has decreased significantly. I am afraid that We are no longer able to offer the Exxxtreme Record Deal package.

in exchange, We would like to offer either: a year's subscription to NME magazine, a guest appearance on The Biggest Loser or a full-time position in a meat-packing plant***.

Infernally Yrs,

Yr Friends @ DiaboliCard



*** please note: "full-time positions" do not carry over into the afterlife.

Thanx for the sweet thought, but that's clearly a fake.

The prince of darkness doesn't hang around zug zug anymore...
and NME??? dammit, no way.

But a soul is all that's worthy these days. This is why countless spend their time on the net as of late...

Wouldn't it be fun? It will happen (we will rock) since you're rock stars and all. ;)

I talked to CHOUT the other day, he is doing well. Working on some new stuff and still playing gigs. I am still waiting on my damn album from him though!

Social Failure is cliche too.

I'm going to make a song called "Teh Economies"

It will be a hit on nerdtube. I mean youtube.

phoenix 04.16.2009 04:02 AM

do we all get free tix to your shows for voting in your decision?

max 04.16.2009 07:42 PM

free tix for all of you guys, and your friends also phoenix!

heard from Chout minutes ago!

we are planning stuff for the follow up to IFOU.
will be out early 2010...

he's just recently penned out an instrumental tentatively (?) called RUNAWAY BANANA. it kicks SO MUCH FUCKING ass you wouldn't even imagine. SMALL WHITE is one of my fave bands ever...

superb!

Although I'm a little late to weigh in on this one, the short answer to this question is yes...yes, you should.

max 04.18.2009 05:34 PM

there's no such thing as "late"
we take things comfortably

tix are still free
i think i won't sell my soul tho.
i decided against it.

i'm really giving away my cds anyway, and i think maybe the next release i won't even go through the pain of making it available on itunes or shit. we'll see, but as of now, it seems like it's just a waste of time.

i just want to make music for the sake of it, and then if someone can appreciate, shit - if they really wanna support me, well, i guess they'll find a way to di it if they really want to.

joe11121 04.18.2009 05:54 PM

Dont sell yr soul. Once you do that you cannot get it back. Watch the simpsons episode to see what happens.

max 04.18.2009 06:12 PM

yeah yeah.
