There's No Sympathy for the Dead

Daily Planner 4.

I'm sitting in lunch right now; I most likely should be doing my spanish homework but I'm too inspired.

Have you ever listened to a song after not hearing it for a very long time, remembered that you liked it, and began liking it again? Well, that's what just happened. That's the beauty of iTunes shuffle.

"There's No Sympathy for the Dead" by Escape the Fate has 
horrendous lyrics (it's about the apocalypse) but the guitar riffs, solo, and screaming in it are superb. I don't think I'll ever grow tired of this song. Escape the Fate's new album is
 terrible, though. Without 
Ronnie, their addicted-to-heroin lead vocalist, they're basically nothing. He made the band for me. His vocals were the icing on the cake, except the icing made up more of the package than the actual cake did.

It's really depressing that he was kicked out.

Somehow this turned into a music review. It was supposed to be a planner. Last time I checked, a planner involves me giving a boring account of my daily escapades. 

Oh well. Ronnie's worth it.

I disagree with you about the new album. It's definitely very different from Dying is Your Latest Fashion but I think it's a great album and Craig Mabbitt does a great job replacing Ronnie. And I don't even like blessthefall. Ronnie kinda deserved what he got and had it coming for him. I think you should give the album a second listen. It's not bad, it's just a little different but then again, you are entitled to your own opinion.
