About Me

I write all my songs on a whim, and think "hey I'm bored, I'll record something." I never sit down and come up with a riff and then record it. I lay down a drum track then loop it until I play something cool, then I record that riff, play it over a few times 'til it's good, add parts over it, add other parts, add different drums, add synths and away we go!
I've looked back and seen my old friends who I thought I would be friends with forever, who I lost them all in an instant, and realized how better my life is, and how I am far outside of this box we call "high school" I am. How I know exactly what I want to do with my life and, and know exactly how to do it, when I see all these people who are on a road that keeps going straight and everything is set out for them. As for me, I don't stand for "reality" I try and break the mold, I put effort into my life and doing what I want to do with my self and being successful.
If you like what you hear add muh bands:
"Who are they to judge us? Simply cause our hair is long?"
This table you are sitting near,
It is made of wood,
The wood that came from a tree,
The tree that came from a forest,
A forest that is on this Earth,
That has water, that is blue,
Blue like the sky,
The reason it is blue,
Is because there is the reflection,
The reflection you get when you look in a mirror when brushing your teeth.
You're brushing your teeth because it is healthy,
Health, a thing we all need. Why?
Because we are told we need it, good.
We are given valid reasons,
We only believe this because the people who tell us have superiority over us,
Superiority, the thing everyone hates but everyone wants,
Wanting is something that can destroy us all,
Destroying is a satisfaction few truly understand,
Understanding is something this species lacks as well,
Lacking questions,
Questions that surround things like Superiority and Wanting,
Why do we want?
Questions that surround things like Understanding and Destroying,
Why don't we understand? Why do we destroy?
Why do we destroy a tree to have a table?
Why do we destroy a life to save ours?
Why don't we understand we need trees?
Why don't we understand we need life?
Why don't we understand we don't need a table?
We have one big table, we just happen to be standing on it…
Why don't we understand we don't need our selves?
If we become selfless then we do not need superiority,
If we become selfless then we do not need to need, nor want.
We do not need the need to go all the way,
Fore how can we go all the way if we have not gone half-way?
Because for us to have gone halfway then we will have had to go one quarter of the way,
And for us to have gone one quarter of the way, we will have had to go one eighth of the way, for us to have gone one eighth of the way we will have to have gone one sixteenth of the way, and so on.
And so on…
Something used for when we get lazy; "And so on"
Laziness is something we all have, lazy is something we all are; as a species.
Too lazy to move, too lazy too get up, too lazy to get involved…
Getting involved in what?
Class?
Friends?
Drama?
Drama… the queens of this thing is such a vein of our existence.
The Everest high self esteem,
The screams of a perfume trail as one walks down the hall,
The sexiness of these gossip queens
The abusiveness of these drama queens
The expensive tastes and the anorexic waists
As a thunderous roar, that would make Thor himself quiver, comes rushing into a room,
The cheating boyfriend who seems to be a figure we never see,
Or the calls at three in the morning,
Psychotic, obsessive, abusive, cheating, framing, lying Drama Queens who think they know it all,
The answers to the questions, the understanding of everything, the want of everything, the need of everyone, the destruction of our daily lives, the superiority over all, the reasons of everything,
Like:
Why is the sky blue?
Is it the reflection?
Is it the reflection of the ocean?
Is it the water?
Is it the water on this earth?
Is it the earth that has trees?
Is it the trees that are cut down wood?
The wood…
Shaped into a table…
The table you are sitting at.
I am Callum. I play guitar, drums and lil' bass. I am Epicity. I am I smart ass. I will not be afriad to tell you something about you. If I say you're beautiful believe it, cuz I won't hesitate to tell you.
I enjoy it when people lie on couches and fall asleep listening to me play, I try and bring a sort of spirituality to the listener, not the spirituality of a god or religion, but the spirituality of music, the sinister vocals, and instrumentals that show more emotions then words. I always love working with other musicians, I particularly love working with women and their voices. I like making people think, thinking so much that I put them into a sort of trance, that makes people fall asleep. A sleep where they are not deep into it, but so they can be truly relaxed and feel the music. Want me to play for you? Call me or message me!
Peace, Callum

Influences:

This was my first drum teacher, Chris Cullen, one of the biggest influences of my life.

"The new world order reeks of dying empire odor and changing the channel wont make that go away. As the veneer of democracy fades away, as the worlds down-size until it explodes, as the shanty-towns piled behind the malls become visible, as the savages on the other side of the wall break through, as everybody from gun-crazy militias to anti-immigrant nazis to fundamentalist child-raping christians to gangsta rappers to community activists to working families just struggling to put food on the table, all mad at the same thing. your SUV; me, me, me; "mission accomplished"; bring em on; buy more stuff, buy more stuff, fight terror, defend freedom so we can buy more stuff. The false illusion of the world is going down, motherfucker. Walk off the job. Crime is beautiful. A prank a day keeps the dog-leash away. Quit your jobs. Burn down the malls. AAARRRGGHHHH" - Jello Biafra

I play acoustic music,
but it's not indie.
How's that for a change
now-a-days?

nor are you,
