The Progress Report 
After relistening to the albums, I’m going to go with Palimpsest. What a weird fuckin name. But as an album, it’s still better than DHIADW–even though that one carries a big nostalgia factor for me.

I actually love the title “Palimpsest” as it relates to the revision of American history. It’s like every track is a historical document with some, “yeah, but actually…” written over the accord. It also makes me think about what each generation brings to the history, and how they choose to focus/understand the history of their ancestors. Just wish the band wasn’t Canadian, as I usually prefer self reflection for these sorts of things, but I suppose it’s our fault as Americans for seeming “so fucking proud.”

TIL that “palimpsest” is a real word, not something made up by the band Protest the Hero. Maybe I should Gojira myself for messing that one up…

Drucifer – “Dead Heart in a Dead World”
Protest album is good but… i think im just old. Im missing the hooks and rhythm riffs, it just sounds like noodling. Again, I’m getting old.

Man…I don’t know I love Palimpsest and Dead Heart…I think what I will do is think back to 2008 Vans Warped Tour, Dru and I met Rody Walker and he was a cunt. Therefore and almost exclusively because of the River Dragon, Nevermore wins, but I reiterate both of these albums are liquid hot fiyah.
Brian – “Palimpsest”
Luke Rager – “Palimsest”
Scrodge – “Dead Heart in a Dead World”
Aaron – “Palimpsest”
DHiaDW wins in nostalgia, but Palimpsest is way more interesting to me at this juncture. Thank God I’m not old like Dru.
