Bruce Warila: Why LSD Makes Wonderful Music

image from 3.bp.blogspot.com Meet Bruce Warila. He knows everything there is to know about LSD. The in's and out's. The business and even the production. Why it helps make music wonderful. Err, not that kind. Lead Singer Disease. The sickness that few vocalists get these days. Once infected, they become awesome at life, refuse all authority, and don't Twitter reply to fans, mostly, because they are busy crushing beer cans, chasing girls, and writing the anthems of a generation.

Capture333"Personally, I want my lead singers to be freaking super heroes. I have zero interest in knowing that you put blueberries in your Cheerios, or that you are flat out broke.  I don’t even want to know that you are a regular human.  Give me LSD over feel good videos, cameo shots, home interviews, cat holding, dog petting, bike riding, smiles, friends, family, or anything that makes you look close to normal.  You drive a rocket ship, eat steel and shit nails, divine songs, date models, burn money, wear a cape, sleep naked, and when you blow your nose…" (Read the rest.)

  1. Labels did drop emerging bands because of label merger issues even when those bands reportedly had “lead singer disease”. Just look at what happened to Buffalo Nickel who once where signed to a major label. After having been dropped, the band parted ways with their lead singer and songwriter, started again independently – and are now a succesful touring act with 2 albums and several EPs under their belt: Blackberry Smoke. The lead singer, however, first tried the indie route as well, but when Tower Records went down, the reissue of the band’s album under his own name tanked as well. Gary Stier definitely deserves another chance at getting his songs and his voice heard.
    Goes to show that a charismatic lead singer doesn’t help at all when the new CEO does not want to promote the previous one’s signings to further showcase the economic failure of his predecessor and the band gets dropped in the process.
