no mercy, no pleasure, no sin

yesterday(since the gas company needed to come out a read the meter) i decided to take a day off work and putz around the city. Allegedly ending up at amoeba around 630-700 to catch !!! play a free show. Long story short after a haircut, 2 loads of laundry, and 3 11$ martinis i finally managed to make it over to amoeba just in time for them to start. Now I'm not the biggest !!! fan and i have to admit i mostly went cause I'm missing out on coachella this year. They were great live and whether it was the stoli swimming in my gut or the energy of the band i can't be sure but i actually danced a little. Craziness. That was really just a set up for my real point. While there i was thumbing thru cd's looking for an artist called trost cause its the only album i could think of that i have been wanting for awhile. Needless to say i didn't find it(crazy German bitches, love it). After watching a little more of the show i decide to take off early cause i still wanted to get home and sleep before i headed out for the night. I look back and see the tag for CLIENT. So i take a look thinking maybe i could score the new single when low and behold the entire new album sat in front of me. I have seriously been waiting for this album forever and fuck me its only 13$. I ran home smoked a bowl and put the album on while i cleaned the house.

The album itself is just pretty much straight foward synth pop only really dark(think depeche mode being 3 chicks and your kinda close but not entirely). I seriously listened to it twice. Stand out tracks being Someone to hurt, 6 in the morning, and lights go out although the whole album is awesome. I know for a fact this album will play a big part in what I'm currently writing. One of the songs has given birth to another charchter. When i first heard 6 in the morning it reminded me of someone i had hooked up with but when we tried to actually go out on a "date"..... lets just i was hoping he was something he wasn't. Then that got me thinking of the whole world of sexual politics between gay men. And how we just sorta follow them, play these roles in bed that is not really reflective of who we are. Now that may be all fine and healthy but ultimately if you plan on doing anything outside of sex you have this totally false assumption on what that person will be like. Then you realize your just as bad as the guys who play those roles cause you believe and fall for the hypermasculine stereotypes they perpetuate. Well this characters job is to fuck with the line between feminine and masculine. Haven't thought of a name for him yet but I'll say this much. His fetish is to get guys that are strict tops to bottom out for him. You see the only thing guys with big dicks like more then fucking other guys with big dicks is to get fucked by a guy with an even bigger dick. This is a fact. ha ha. well maybe not but in my story(fantasies...ha ha) it is. So anyways, I'll leave you with a Client video. I was looking for 6 in the morning but i found lights go out which is equally as sexy and I'm sure I'll get a couple of lines from.
