Scratch One Grub

If you are looking for some new metal music to kill it in the gym with or help you stay awake on your commute to or from work or just looking for that next headbanging, blood pumping, thrashing band then check out Scratch One Grub.

Formed in late 2023, these Welsh music prodigy's are looking to make waves into the South Wales music scene with the debut of their first single Bad Habit. You can check out their music video HERE!

Bad Habit the debut single hits us with melodic, synthy, metal with lyrics and vocals that can only be described as cross between Gojira meets Machine Head and the Synth electronic vibes then gives me a bit of Enter Shikari to it. It's all complimented nicely alongside eachother as the band mosh getting in our face while playing us their song in the music video. The song kicks off with a catchy riff and then proceeds with it's melodic synth and drum combination. While we get to the part the music slows down all while building itself back up we see a Rubiks solved in real time, can't say I've ever seen that in a music video before, then the guitar solo hits and that's a sexy solo. The spoken vocals near the end of the song are so groovy and gets your feet stomping, this is definitely a part crowd interaction will be thriving off. An epic first single, that makes me excited and leaves me wanting more. See you in the pit lads!

Speaking with band Member Lewis Griffiths he revealed to me that the band is made up of; Aled Trigg - Lead vocals. Alex Lewis - Guitar. Lewis Griffiths - Drums/vocals and Sean Barry - Synths/electronics. However the band are also hosting auditions at the moment for a lead guitarist and a bassist to join the group, so keep an eye out for the talented ones that make it through.

I've also been told that Scratch One Grub will bring us their second single in a couple of months time and to watch this space for the debut of their very first album! So the metal scene is looking bright with these lads making their impact and I'm excited for the future they bring us.

To follow Scratch One Grub on their journey, please give them a follow on their social media and check out their YouTube and Spotify for music and videos and more content coming soon.

Steve And The Family Indeed

Once upon a time in a town not far,
Lived a kind man named Steve, a real shining star.
One sunny day, he met a lady named Eve,
A meeting so sweet, you wouldn't believe.

Steve and Eve, a match made in glee,
Decided together, a family they'd be.
They adopted two kids, oh, so dear,
James and Aimee, spreading joy and cheer.

James loved trains, with wheels that spin,
Chugging and choo-chooing, oh, what a din!
Aimee adored horses, so graceful and strong,
In fields of green, where they'd gallop along.

Together as a family, they'd dance and sing,
Sharing laughter, every little thing.
Steve and Eve, love never-ending,
With James and Aimee, joy they're sending.

In their cosy home, warmth did bloom,
Love and laughter chased away the gloom.
So, here ends the tale of Steve and Eve,
With James and Aimee, who always believe.

For in this family, love's the key,
A story of togetherness, as happy as can be.
No matter where life's adventures may lead,
Steve, Eve, James, and Aimee - a family, indeed!

In my dreams (original poem,lyrics)

In my dreams, I see you sailing away, I'm holding onto hope that the pain will leave me someday, our love is a moment lost to time, heartbreak should be a crime, in my dreams we are sailing away, 

Listen to the echos of forgotten dreams, we had the world at the palm of our hands or so it seemed, we thought were the champions of all, just like Icarus our love flew too close to the sun and we started to fall,

I fell and broke into pieces, I couldn't arrange them and make them fit anymore, I didn't balance life well and I've lost who I am, blinded by pain sorrow and regrets, I drink now to forget,

Every time I fall asleep I see you there, laughing and smiling with your eyes gleaming, I lay awake at night staring at the ceiling, memories come streaming to my mind, I'm surprised my hearts still beating, 

How much longer will this take, the pain and the heartbreak, I ache and i ache, I have never experienced such pain, In my dreams i find you there.  

You Are More Than What You Say.

You are not awful when you are tired, you are not gross when you have been sweating, you are not ugly when you are sick, you are not worthless when full of doubt. 

You are not cold when you are caring, you are not selfish when you are learning, you are quite cute when you are frowning, you are always loved and you always matter, when you are depressed. 

You are not a mess when you are feeling anxious, You are an angel and a blessing even in darkness. 

You are not useless when you are feeling unsure, you are not ever alone and you are not ever going to be hurt again for you possess the strength of a nuclear bomb but not only that, you have me also to lean back on. 

It's alright, believe me when i say all this and that you are doing a fantastic job with yourself alright, some days we may fall for sure, it happens but what matters most is how we get up and carry on.

Playing With Fire (love 80s slow falsetto ballad rock song) lyrics

I've said some things that wasn't right,
I let you lay there all the night,
We've heard the story a thousand times,
Two lovers stories intertwined,
you know,

I have been playing with fire,
i have been burnt,
I have been playing with fire,
It hurts,
You, know,

They're playing our song on the radio,
I'm writing this to let you know, oh oh,
I hope they play this on the radio,
You know its true, hoo hoo,
How much i love... you,

I have been playing with fire,
i have been burnt,
I've said some things that hurt desires,
I've been playing with fire,
It hurts, you...know

Laying in my bed at night,
All alone and full of fri-ight,
Spooky scary silhouettes,
Overthinking my....regrets,

I have been playing with fire,
i have been burnt,
I flew too close to the su-uh-un!,
And now i'm hurt,
I hope you, kno-oh-oh-oh,
I love you, hoo hoo hoooo!

Four Words - Poem/lyrics original

Unable to sleep,

Unable to dream,

My silence haunts me,

Unable to move,

Unable to feel,

Is this really real,

Four words, you said to me,

Four words, they hurt me,

Four words, they cut me deeply,

Four words, they still haunt me,

The day was sunny, bright,

You were smiling, having the time of your life,

What went wrong, how did it go wrong?,

You said three words, which meant the world to me,

But now it's no longer true,

I'm cold, unable to warm up,

I'm numb, unable to get hurt,

I'm silent now, a ghost set to haunt,

I'm transparent and paralysed,

I'm dying on the inside,

Four words, you said to me,

Four words, they hurt me,

Four words, they cut me deeply

Four words, oh how they haunt me.

Triggered - Poem/Lyrics original

With shoulders tensed, anger swells,
My hands shake, tremendously,
I have the urge, the urge to strike,
Such mighty need, will i fulfil it,
What will it take, to tear the anger apart,

Triggered, again by insecurities,
Triggered, again by jealousy,
Triggered, again by over expecting,
Triggered, again by withholding
Triggered, by how i am feeling,

With gut at unease, rage soars,
My blood is pumping, exceptionally,
Hands clenched, knuckles crack,
What's the first thing to get smacked,

Triggered, again by insecurities,
Triggered, again by envy,
Triggered, again by past,
Triggered, unable to cope

With the room spinning,
My ears start ringing,
The eyes are blacking out,
No one is safe, not even myself,
Am i becoming a monster,
Am i becoming that which i am not,

Triggered, The rage consumes my skin,
Triggered, I'm burning from within,
Triggered, My body is trembling,
Triggered, Blackouts causing memory gaps,

Forgive me for i have sinned,
I lost control, I became that which i promised i am not,
I controlled, i obsessed, i stepped out of line,
Boundaries were crossed, Lives were at risk,
Mentally unsafe, triggered, now i plead insanity.

More Metal Than Bone (poem/lyrics)

I've got my finger on the trigger and i'm ready to blow,

You've got your mouth pressed up and ready on show,

My skin's so abrasive, You've just got to face it,

I'm more metal than bone,

My bones are falling out, can i find a way to stop it,

Buried alive a machine, Can you falsify the organic,

When its more metal than bone, can you still see me,

Don't you even know who i am anymore?, 

I can't see straight, It gives me such a migraine,

I'm more metal than bone, it leaves me so prone,

I've got my finger on the trigger and i'm ready to blow,

You've got your mouth open wide, ready to be filled,

With more metal than bone,

Teeth are corroding away, Let's fill them up, 

The docs say, it's going to be okay, that's what they always say,

That's life, you win some and you lose the others, 

No fairies, no tales, are gonna save you anymore, 

Face facts son, you're more metal than bone,

With my finger on the pulse, i'm ready to go,

Be careful with who you deal with, we could come to blows,

The fact remains the same, i'm a danger to society, 

And everybody knows,

I'm more metal than bone. 

What's it like to be me, you'd have to crawl up into a ball to see,

How much it feels to be me ever so painfully, 

To be injected with more metal than bone, It'll leave you so prone,

It would drive a sane man to lunacy, You'll see. 

I'm more metal than bone.

A Different Shade Of Green (original music lyrics)

We're burning all the beauty, destroying all the green, don't they even know, how much they mean to you and me, why cant we in this modern day and age come up with different ways to leave our marks, we stray far away from evolutionary needs, its time we stop and take a look at ourselves and the planets embrace, lets all stand together now,

Look at all the trees, why cant you tell me, why, are we destroying all the greeeen, there's different shades of green, one for every day, that shows me, how much, you mean to me.

The Amazon is being destroyed, what's a rain-forest without any rain, now, whats a forest without the beautiful landscape, can we even bless the rain down the Amazon, where smoke and fire and greed of men run wild,

Look at all the trees, why cant you tell me, why, are we destroying all the greeeen, there's different shades of green, one for every day, that shows me, how much, you mean to me.

If you take a breath in, you can surely tell, that you're alive and breathing, well, without any trees we wont be breathing well, well, we won't be breathing all to well, not too well,

We need all the trees, why can you tell me, why, are we destroying all the greeeen, there's different shades of green, one for every day, that shows me, how much, I see, you mean to me.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I wrote this looking out of a window on the train last Saturday. I seen so many trees and one area had all sorts of shades of green so it stuck in my head and I was writing this while looking at my woman and thinking about the Amazon fire and how greedy a race we are.

My Deer The Writers Block - A Poem?

Here i lay, late at night,

Crying myself to sleep with fright,

Unable to write, Disabled to fight, 

Blocked up with ideas, blocked in by words,

This is my curse,

This is my writers block,

Stumped to continue,

I just want to be ready to rock and rolla,

But i cant even manage to push out my words in their baby stroller,

It's just a baby, a tiny idea, words that come in bundles,

The idea is a deer, 

This is my writers block, I'm stumped to continue,

I write and write, type and i type,

Describe the things i hold in my head,

To come out, come alive, manifest!,

The struggle is real its been 34 days,

The creativity is there, but nothing is coming out of my mind,

It's putting me down deeper into misery,

This is my writers block,

I struggle to go on,
So I write instead of doing nothing because, what could go wrong?,

I wish to insert a coin and enable continue,

This is my writers block,
What am i to do,
When all that comes out is just poo,
Go back to the drawing board, Or bid adieu

I'm ready but the baby won't come,

Stroller up ready for the ideas to go for a walk,

The struggle makes me unable to talk,

The block is not my friend dear,

This is my writers block, i'm unable to continue,

I wrote this in hope to free my deer.

I hope my deer, can be free,
I want it to run wild imaginatively,
I wish to break the shackles that bind,
I will bring to light, the bright and the bold,
New fresh factory made gold,
For all readers to hold,
For there's new journey's to behold,

This is my writers block,
This is my Deer. 

21 Pilots song Pet Cheetah inspired this, I use my writers block to express the struggle and to try and get out of that stumped slump i am in by creating my own kind of writing exercise. I leave this as a normal post its not really lyrical, or poem worthy i guess but it's satirical and will just be posted as a reminder to always write even when i feel nothing good is coming. Might come across as complete drivel to a lot of people i'm sure but hey power of expression!

Late Night Ramblin's - Vol 6: The Goals!

This is more of a note to myself but if you wish to take some of these in and try them out then by all means make your own list and let me know what you're goals are! 

Be more confident. Stay driven.

Be more active. Remember first 4 months of 2018 how active I was gym Monday, Wednesday, Friday? More of that!

Eat less. It's not a solution to overindulge.

Lose weight. Get this puppy fat off. 

Gain muscle. Come on go full Hulk.

Release new ebooks. Finish old. KEEP WRITING!

Get a deal with a publisher/get paid to write.

Drink less alcohol. It's not a solution or a numbing agent.

Ride a plane. Never been abroad or on a plane.

Rebrand, remimage, redeem.

Gain love. Cliché and class A cheese I know.

Stay in the present. My thoughts are dark and overcumber me at my low points need to get them away and stay in the moment.

Dont be a mat. Stand up don't let them walk over you.

Keep growing that beard. Improve it.

Get a new hair style. Dye it if you have to.

Dont be a dick, don't spam. I have come across as one at times I know but I have to control it.

Someone remind me of this and let's support eachother

Late Night Ramblin's Vol 5: The Problematic Mind

It's 4:35am as of writing on the 23/8/18. I won't bother editing this, i will make mistakes grammatically i know but who care's im sure you will understand me and if you want me to correct it, tell me because right now i am tired and full of worry. 

I have problems........

There I said it. I have money, car, long sighted, mathematical, grammatical, social, sleeping, thinking, you name it i have problems. We all do!

At the moment i seem to be bleeding money from my car problems which in turn is making my money go down which causes money problems which causes stress, depression, just overall emotional and personal problems for me. 

How do i escape this? 

Work more? I work what i am given, occasionally if i have no plans and time i will cover. I have applied for more work elsewhere, part time, full time, temp, apprenticeships you name it. Any one got back to me with anything? Nope just decline after decline after decline. When all i want in life is victory after victory after victory after victory just like EC3. 

Why not get paid to write? 

If someone can point me in the right direction i am more than happy to do it. 

Eat less and exercise more?

Valid points but i dont want to starve myself and exercising is hard my mentality is not set to do it, i need to be on that autodrive and motivated and inspired but my brain most of the time is not but when it is, it's like a feeling an emotion a drive to do it but mainly i need someone with me i dont like going to the gym alone and i know i did it alone for a while a few months back but of course like i explained before i became sick, had more work on and less time to do it so i dropped it and ended up losing my gym card which put me behind so much more so i could not go to the gym with out my card i know so annoying. 

Cut out non essentials and sell things you no longer have need for?

Very valid points of course i am making my way onto that. 

Is Karma my problem?

The very problem with problems is the fact they never come alone, they come in clusters of them. When you find one there's another and another but oh look over there, yep its another and sometimes dealing with them can sprout more too! Never ending vicious cycle it seems. That's life as Sinatra would say, but why do we have to suffer them? I've heard it all before problems make a man. I need the nonjudgmental, the helpful, the caring, the lovable people in my life to come forward, help me. I'm struggling. My worries are getting too much. I think of only the worse. If this is a way of Karma well what have i done? Sure i have said nasty things in the past and done some as a kid for sure everyone has kids feel no consequences to their actions or words is all and if its because of that why karma chooses to hit at me so hard then come on just go wild karma or better yet stop and restore all karma. 

I complain and talk about the negatives of myself and life so much i know and i can only offer my apologies there. What else am i to do?

Happy Brain, Happy Life! 

This is what i need to achieve, i need that peace of mind, where i am not a panicky pete or worry hound dog 24/7 im not really living doing this, i need help motivation advice anything i can get to push me into the right direction! 

If anyone can help me out with links to motivate me to do things or stories or advice tips etc do let me know! 

If you feel the same as me and going through the motions just like me, don't worry you are not alone!

Random Ramblin's 35 - Rising From The Ashes

Ya miss me? Be honest, no? I thought as much.

Anyway, hello, I hope you are well! It's been a while since i did a RR there was supposed to be a podcast but only one got recorded and i may edit and post it as a test see how many tune into it on youtube but we will see what happens with that and with youtube and other stuff.

So my metallic nation what's new?

Life's well you know, going by alright, I have been quiet because of work and then i go to the gym almost everyday so i'm working out, improving myself lost a stone last month and i know it's not much but hey it's not about that its about me putting the work in to improve myself and i am doing a lot you know this keeps me busy and keeps any blues away.

I have cut down on my eating habits and i eat half the calorie intake recommended and i can lift double the weights i could before i started in the gym. I do hour and a half in the gym to two hours and burn up to 300 cals total with each session. I know again to some or to most reading this you will tip your heads up and smirk or scoff but i'm here putting the work in, haters will hate and that's just great as your entitled to say to think what you like it wont bring me down with you, it'll push me further is all.

MOVIES

First film of the year in cinema i seen is Coco and it's alright, darkest disney pixar film ever and it has themes which do connect strongly with me and 2 songs which were lovely.

Downsizing was pretty good. 

I watched Greatest Showman and is amazing! 

Winchester was ok.

Cloverfield Paradox - Predictable but I liked it and the ending was just ohhh boy I can't say anything else.

Superbowl Movie Trailers Thoughts.

Solo - Looks alright, not really excited for it.

Skyscraper - Looks like die hard but with Rock as an amputee does look good though.

MI: Fallout - Looks ok I guess, Cavil has me interested but probably be best to watch when it's out on dvd.

Jurassic World 2: Not interested but I'll probably end up watching it at some point.

Infinity War - Interesting stuff probably be good, looking forward to it.

MUSIC

Greatest Showman soundtrack is lit!

Machine Head - Catharsis Album - 7 tracks i enjoyed are heavy lies the crown, triple beam, volatile, beyond the pale, hope begets hope, screaming at the sun and behind a mask.

I thought it was a good album, rest of the songs on the album i'm not fond on or can take more time to grow.

30STM - Dangerous Night - Another decent track from their new album yet to be released but im hoping the album is containing more of their bangers because walk on water and this are good but i want more, bigger, songs and more powerful ones at that, get one to connect with me.

Youtube

I have not made a video since last year, i know i have had a few vids out this year but they were made last year and scheduled this year. Why the absence? Been busy really my head has not been into youtube either and i know i have a ton of videos to put out and vids to make and unfinished projects to do but i have not had the time or mindset for it. My ad revenue is ending soon sad times. 

Games

I have a lot to play and unfinished games haha. 

Unrelated  but somehow related is the fact i suck at Fortnite haha. 

Recently purchased fallout 4, last guardian, mafia 3 and dragon quest world tree woe and the blight below. Last guardian done my head in and so i switched to mafia and still playing it atm, its decent.

Finished Mafia 3 its a great game 8/10! 

Now to finish...

So i made it into Gamesmaster Magazine again and a few friends have told me i should get into video game journalism ahaha really flatters me but thanks for all the support everyone. Here's the email i sent in which is a shorter version of this post - https://1stmetalgodsblog.blogspot.co.uk/2017/12/where-cheat-codes-at.html

Thanks for visiting my blog, thanks for viewing and all the support as ever, keep metal alive and stay shiny!

2017: What Have I Learned?

So that's 2017 wrapped up. Another lap around the sun complete, another number added to us.

There's been good and bad, like any other year really. We've lost stars and we've lost a lot of good people last year too. . We've all had new starts too and even if you say nothings changed, something has.

MY LIFE IN 2017

For me, I started the year low being let go from my job in a game shop. It was sad indeed and I still miss working with the wonderful people there. I knew it was coming however and then I moved on. For a short while it was back to the dole be forced to do all that crap with them again for 30 odd hours a week until I landed my job with a local cinema chain. "A dream job for you" people told me. It was a good fit I won't lie and it's funny how few years ago I applied for a role there and I failed but this time I was successful. I'm so happy i got this role!

We all have our good and bad days, sometimes the bad days are brought on from others while other days it's just our own troubles. You know The Miz was voted wrestler of the year and I feel like I'm The Miz of my work. No matter what, I always put my blood,sweat and tears into everything I do, I'm not a throwaway, I work my hardest for what I want and I always try to improve upon myself. I also want to thank all my family and friends for putting up with me as ever, you make my day's, months, years go great, much love and respect for all of you!

Highlights?

Star letter in gamesmaster mag.

Game review published in gm as reader review.

New job.

New friends.

New ebooks released.
Held a Bearded Dragon.

Went to London for a lovely day out with work and went to madame tousauds and planet hollywood.

Went to Birmingham for work sports day and got to semi finals.

OVER 50K Blog views!

So what have I learned? 

I have learned that I'm quite the juggler, juggling life, work, YouTube, writing and social life altogether it's been hard but I've done a decent job. I have learned I am a bit harsh on myself and I've got a bit of a short temper and that I can and I will keep improving myself.

What's Next?

It's took me a couple of days to compose this post but I will say the past 8 days I have cut down what I eat and with work I'm always on the move almost every day so being active and eating less should do the trick of weight loss for me, i am keeping an eye on what i eat and how frequently and cutting down the junk so fingers crossed this works out and i come out of 2018 much lighter. This year i want to write more and bring you more ebooks and just enjoy life. I'm off to the gym with James soon, so i got to wrap it up here but everyone thanks for the love and support as ever!

I wish you all the best year ever, have a nice day and stay tuned for more wicked blogs from yours truly!

Random Ramblin's 32 - Heyeayeayea! What's going on?!

Sup metallic nation? Hope you are doing well!

Been a while since i posted anything here, just wanted to post a bit of an update and stuff as ever that happens in a random ramblin instalment. First off...The world is such a scary place right now. Sending prayers and well wishes to all those affected in #Manchester. 

Now to talk about things that have gone on this month......

I have been mostly ill this month missing 4 days of work. All due to throat infection. It's delayed me writing and working and gaming and other things. Over it now although i do have some sort of rash on my hands but this could be unrelated anyway that's my main big delay. 

Never been a big fan of #SamuraiJack but i am sad to see it end after all these years. It represents the last of the cartoon cartoons ending.

Ghosts are people from a parallel earth and only appear due to a bleeding effect in the universe? This is new theory and it has my attention.

Argh! Just realised i deleted save data for a game i just went back to playing, why me?! This is so annoying! It's ok i'll just get rid of this game bugger it.....

A message to all fame seekers, Get Famous for the Fame not for the Fortune....

2nd of May out of goodness of my heart and kindness of my wallet i ordered myself and my parents their first dominos pizza. They still prefer papa johns lol. 

Found out next Predator film has started filming so i am hyped! 

I seen my grandfather the other day first time since xmas, was nice to see him as ever, guy's a legend. 

Seen Jeff Dunham live in Cardiff. Achmed was the best but i hardly really laughed most of it was just forced laughter from me. I always get let down seeing comedians live the big known ones anyway. 

Well another season of the best show on telly has ended. I am sad but it was another great season #TheFlash @TheCW.

Sorted out my nephews Xbox 360 just a case of corrupted data with Minecraft.

Roger Moore has died. R.I.P.

Sports day

First time in years i went with my work and attended their sports day in Birmingham after 4 hours sleep and 5 hours travel and 6 hours of being in the rain playing football we got to Semi finals 4th place out of 17 teams. Good stuff right? I really wanted to win a trophy but hey next year i shall. I got us through the quarter finals in a penalty shootout i saved us, it was and is certainly a highlight. Great day despite the weather. 

Film Bit

Green Room - Mad film but i'd only give it an ok score of 5/10.

Batman & Bill Documentary - Really interesting stuff. Never knew Bill Finger did so much for Batman always thought more highly of Bob Kane and now I'm thinking less of Bob. Marc Nobleman is a inspiration to me now. (I CAN'T RATE DOCUMENTARIES SORRY BUT IT WOULD BE HIGH) 

Alien Covenant - Really disappointing film. Maybe extended cut will be better. Fassbender is best thing to watch it for. 5/10

Fast 8 - F8 of the furious eh? The fate was that it bored me mostly. I liked the prison fight scene. Never been much of a fan of this series though...

Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Dark Side of Dimensions - It's pretty good but lengthy. 7/10

Digimon Adventure tri. - Chapter 1: Reunion - Great start to a new adventure with the old gang. 8/10

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales - Was pretty good but mostly ok if this makes sense. I found a lot of it unfunny and predictable. Doubt it's the last pirates film. 6/10

Game Bit

COD Infinite Warfare - Well then that's the end of the campaign to that. I really enjoyed it's campaign. One of the best since black ops 2 I thought.

Smite - I got asked to play it, i had a go and i did not like it. 

Mad Max - Bought it two days ago, only played a little bit seems pretty good so far. 

Tales from Borderlands - Completed this again, nice to have had it free from ps plus. 

WWE Supercard - Currently addicted to this game....

SOUTH PARK FRACTURED BUT WHOLE 17TH OCTOBER

RDR 2 DELAYED TIL 2018

My one wish for #E3 is for @Sony to not bring a new @PlayStation YET! Give it 5 more years!

Music Bit

I find Linkin Park's new album One More Light to be terrible and a lazy attempt at mainstream pop music from them which lacks any energy. It has two songs i like and you are left at points like "Oh this will build up and get better" to find out it does not is a huge disappointment just like finding out this is an album from Linkin Park. Most songs feel like they deserve to be given to other artist's to perform. Not all fans will like it, and also for saying I don't like it and that LP should go back to not selling out and to go make good creative energetic music again has earned me a block and a punch in the mouth from Chester Bennington, so you know he need's to put his ego in check or he will lose more fans, the stupid idiot. Check it out if you want to but you should avoid it to not feel disappointed and if anything just listen to "Good Goodbye" it's the best song on the album. Review over.....not worth rating, it's bad....
