Ian Sturgill: Awesome. Tampa has been the perfect home for SWWAATS, and it's long-time metal heritage has not only shown us the greatest of support, but also kept the bar very high for us as our peers in Florida are just amazing. Bands like Implosive Disgorgence, Legions, Maruta, Khann, Abdomen Canvas, Dark Faith, The Absence as well as the classics (Cannibal Corpse rehearses down the hall from us) certainly keeps us on our toes.
Anything else you’d like to add?
Question everything. Don't settle for any b.s. answers. If you think something is terribly wrong, then you're probably correct. Act on it. Live your actions, and act for your life. Demand more information in every single opportunity you have to do so. Realize that nobody in charge of anything gives a f^& about you, and that the wealthiest one percent wants the rest of us dead. There is no hope other than that which you make for yourself and those you love.
Realize that nothing will ever change without your intervention. Realize that you are the most powerful influence on your surroundings. Stop classifying things by how they differ from you. Make an effort not to be an asshole, there are plenty of those going around. Religion is a business and seeks nothing more than to strip you of your money and distance you from divinity.
Politics are a dog and pony show and mean nothing to anyone on the ground floor of society, so stop participating in their b.s. Consider the implications of a worldwide despotic governance. Eliminate greed and anything that spawned from it. Destroy your inhibitions and pre-conceived notions so that you may begin to evolve. Remember: the more that you are convinced that you know for a fact, the less you will be able to learn. There is a war coming.
