Policy Overkill

OK, so I got a really sexy new computer (seriously, it’s pretty pimp) and did some tests with some new fractally things.  WOW does this churn out some amazing images all quick-like.

Good news is all of the fractal things I’ve done over the years are going to be retouched and rereleased.

Bad news is I have to take the time to do it.

Worst news is a better computer means I can find new and creative ways to abuse your ears.

Stay tuned kids, I’m going to fuck up reality something fierce.

OK, so your old pal Toxie is back and has a few things he would like to talk about.

First things first: this WordPress site just isn’t cutting it.  A new Policy Overkill Interwebzsitepage is in the works, but might not be finished for a short while.  I need to sit down and make the damn thing, and that involves a lot of drinking.

Second things not first: There is new music in the works.  The plan is to release some bizarre things that spewed out of my computer and don’t really fit anything else I’ve ever done as a list of “miscellaneous releases” on the site here.  There is also a fourth album.  Because I can.

Third thing *insert comedy here*: There will be arts.

I have no clue what kind of time frame there will be on all of this, as I need to do this stuff between working and acts of genocide.  That is just SO difficult.

In other news, as some of you may have heard, DJ Cat has been in Africa.  I have no idea what he was doing there or why, but he is home now.

I have been working on music and Policy Overkill related garbage lately, but I’m here to announce that it will be laying around half-finished.  The reason is, I haven’t had a decent night of sleep in many months.  My doctor gave me sleepy pills, but I still feel like shit.

No energy means no worky.  The band isn’t going to die, but it’s going to lay dormant for a while.

So apparently the link for Ekkerphex broke shortly after everything was posted.  Whoops!

Anyway, it’s fixed now.  Call me a dumbass if you feel the need.

Holy shit, that can’t be true.

Actually, yes it is.  Two free MEATCORE albums have escaped from my labs and I have decided to let them run free.  I have a giant pile of unreleased music cluttering up my harddrive and have decided to let some of it out.  Keeping four hours of music to myself seems selfish, even if it was ultimately because I can’t afford to publish it all properly at the moment.

So, here is an officially official announcement from The Toxieman about the albums.  The links are in that fancy ass sidebar over there, right on the top.  Easy to find.

Now for some more specifics.  Happy Havoc Industries was actually finished around a year ago but was only brought out at shows.  It is a 45 minute long version of the timeless classic from Shadows.  The whole thing is a good, healthy dose of thumpy goodness and randomly generated main lines.

Second is the crisp, fresh, and delicious Plug Me In and Turn Me On, which grew out of my desire to create an album of songs for Audiosurf.  Though a few songs slipped in that aren’t particularly exciting, I did run through all of them and most are pretty good tracks.

And now it’s time to shamelessly ask for teh munnies.  Like the albums?  Consider sending me a few dollars to support the band.  I’m not asking for much.  Yes, the band does have expenses, though I do my best to keep them on the frugal side.
