now we know what t-rez meant when he stated Year Zero was a soundtrack for a movie that doesn’t exist. (refer to support sites)
this is a very interesting way to release an album rather than using the standard jewel-case with fold-out insert
we know that t-rez has a disdain for the way albums are released and how songs have become nothing more than a file on a hard drive (paraphrased). Here we have a intentionally leaked song (My Violent Heart) that is a piece of a much larger media experience.

Not only has t-rez push the boundaries of music in the past and will likely again with Year Zero, but now he has redefined the music’s delivery!

here are the support websites for Year Zero:

… and don’t forget to call 3102951040 to hear the “Rise to Action” message. the clip in it is likely from the first single, Survivialism.

Now what about this leaked song My Violent Heart? It’s a cross between Saul Williams (www.myspace.com/saulwilliams) spoken word over something from Fixed. It’s political without sounding dumb like The Hand That Feeds off with_teeth. It’s strong and tense eighties electrosynth. The song is remarkably different from anything done before by t-rez and blows away everything off with_teeth due it’s focus and lyric/rhyme driven concept. Cool indeed. If you want to hear the song (recommend shoot me a message.
And then we have the lyrics — a marked improvment from anything prior in t-rez career. enjoy..
=====
You and I, we may look the same
But we are very far apart
There’s bullet-holes where my compassion used to be
And there is violence in my heart

Into fire you can send us
From the fire we return
You can label us a consequence
Of how much you have to learn

You can try but you’ll never understand
This is something you will never understand
Can you hear it now?
Hear it coming now
Can you hear it now?

On hands and knees
We crawl
You cannot stop us all

Our bones, our skin
We will not let you win

You have set something in motion
Much greater than you’ve ever known
Standing there in all your grand naivety
About to reap what you have sown

Time will feed upon your weaknesses
And soon you’ll lose the will to care
When you return to the place that you call home
We will be there, we will be there

On hands and knees
We crawl
You cannot stop us all
Our blood will stay
We will not go away

On hands and knees
We crawl
You can not stop us all
Our blood our ways
Will never leave this place

We crawl
We crawl
We crawl
We crawl

I was chatting with Mr. Tilman for ninety minutes tonight over the air waves. He views me as a free man. See, I don’t view myself free at all. Please, I am not trying to persuade him against viewing me that way. It’s just interesting how personal views can differ widely from public opinions. That’s all fine and dandy. I guess it makes perfect sense as to how that happens. The public can’t read minds! hmmm.. Maybe I project an image of freedom because I am striving for that. And to act it is to become it, whether temporary or permanently.

Whenever I drink whiskey I smell butter. I don’t understand that.

Why am i writing all of this shit? Someone asked me that a few weeks ago, except they didn’t use the word “shit.” Well, two reasons. I want Tara to write non-fiction books. She refuses. One time she quipped that why should she write when I am the one who wants to be a writer? Wow, ok, good point. Next, if i die tomorrow this website will serve as source of data into my life when I will be too dead to speak it.

lately I have been eating lot’s of different nuts including pistachio nuts. Well, I am not the only one who enjoys them. The black Turk (turkish angora) cat Nee-Chee likes to eat them as well. He will put his head into the bag and break open the shells and eat the nut inside. Last night his white brother Cosmo the Turk watch him eat pistachio nuts. He decided to give it a whirl — and he ate the shells as well. In twelve hours he began vomiting violently all over the place for hours. only one shell emerged. the rest apparently caused a temporary block which trigged the vomiting. After twenty-four hours (right now) he seems fine. We’ll see how the next day goes.
How dumb is this? he ate the shells. wtf.. his brother didn’t do that!
