HELLO, I'M ALEX...

"Stranger to my own heart"

Well, I guess I have to say hi... even if sometimes I rather let the echoing chaos of my thirsty soul resonate to my own displeasure... for this first post, I would simply say "Hello, I'm Alex"... you may have seen me around throwing microphone stands through music club windows, might have heard me scream for social justice or read a few words of my "open letters" posted in my band's blog section "through the eyes of ruins"... strange to admit, but it felt like a life time since being somehow active in that some kind of public blabbing confusion of my own.. Passion for words never failed me; desires to communicate sometimes did... so let's see where it leads me... I might not find myself being quite an interesting persona, but I can be quite entertaining at times... lol...

To be quite honest, I don't know if it's based out of desperation or if it's out of a true desire to give a try to that therapeutic and psychological trash theory regarding the spiritual liberation associated with sharing your soul to the universe that I'm getting back to blogging after such a long season of silence... since my dog Shadow died, I never really felt any particular emotions worth sharing... so writing words for the sake of writing words never been my style... I never believed in those theories of self-righteous-exposure and spiritual-public-masturbation... never been a fan of those spirit easing miracle peddlers standing at every misery street corner holding flyers with a total absence of empathy for the ones they’re seeing as lost, neither did I kneel before any awarded holy hero selling redemption in cheap shinny chroming religious vending machines only open for Sundays' cash-in… but since I've always been an optimistic freak believing in the empowering liberation of words... I’ll give it a try...

Alright, long story short... even if a long story short always tends to get way much longer with me anyway... I don't have any idea or any plan whatsoever regarding that new blabbing journal of mine... I might share about creation, music, lyrics, dogs, human rights, love and hate, studio, personal illusions, the upcoming album... I don't know... I guess it will simply be filled with moments, for what I consider a moment should be about... might be a few lines everyday... might be some never ending drama... I don't know... and that's the beauty of it... feeling somehow a little likes a stranger to my own heart, but as Shakespeare wrote, "the whole world's a stage"... so hey, let's start with "Hello, I'm Alex"...
Ps: stay tuned, major announcement coming up…
