opinions about vac

i enjoy that vac changes over time, a requirement, imo, of a good artist

I was glad to hear the maturity of both the equipment and the artist in the music.

Though, I didn't catch the wave on the latest movement.

I liked it a lot more before I realized he actually means those retarded lyrics.

personally, i never really paid attention to the lyrics. for the most part, they were distorted and very low, so i always treated the vocals are part of the ambience of the song. and it always made the song that much more richer in sound.
i'm kinda glad that he believes the words that he sings. if he didn't then they would come off as lame and cheesy sounding and would probably ruin the song completely.

i kinda like how he organizes vocals, it seems as though he weaves it into the music.

Depends on the song, and the artist.

I'm really not sure I care all that much for completely negative shit in what i listen to anymore. Sometimes it's okay, but sometimes it ends up being Grandpa Al's hatred for the Bush family. It's like "christ, enough already." I still listen to stuff jam packed with negativity, but I always try to tell myself that they are playing to a certain image in order to make their music entertaining.

no fun, no dreams, no life, no time, no fun, no dreams, no time, no life, another day of misfortune, another day of hating everyone, another day of hatred of depression on succession, on the mental breakdown, no fun, no dreams, no life, no time, just fade away! no life, no dreams just another day, a no fun, no life, no dreams just fade away. life in the mirror, life in your hands, life on a broken dysfunctional life, life death, life there on no fucking fantasy, nothing to dream. just another day here, no fun, no life, no dreams, no time, no fun no, nothing at all. time doesn't hear you, your dying away, no one will understand you, no one to come and play, no one to stop to hear you, no one will hear, listen to what i say, what you say, i hammer a nail to my face and say ohhhhhhhhh! mentally backwards, in dreams that never transformed into anything at all ohhhhhh! time doesn't hear you, no life, no fun, no dreams, no time, no life, no dreams, just fade away. time doesn't hear you, no, time doesn't care, no fun, no dreams, no life, no fun, no dreams, no life, no promises, no fucking time, no life, no dreams, fade away, fade away, fade away, fade away!.

He believes those and they still come across as highly cheesy.

IMO lyrics are the worst part of VAC's music. Bryan admits, most of them are improvised, and it shows. Sometimes an occasional line will strike me, but for the most, I think it's a VERY good thing that the vocals are so buried in the mix.
