Working working working. Sometimes (okay always) I wish music making was just...making music. But it turns out most of it is actually uploading files and sending emails.

Been revisiting a lot of classic albums lately. This one really hit the spot today
Spun an old favorite yesterday. This one's an all-timer. I think Supercrush could pull me out of the absolute worst depression imaginable
Ohhh no lol
Great record though. Probably worth the trace amounts of carbon monoxide
Staying in your car to finish the song but it was a Dream Theater song so the cops showed up because you were sitting there so long they thought you died
I can't and won't argue with it
Still with the backwards R tho?
Lol no their logo is actually legible (and iconic). I'm talking about the bands whose logos look like a pile of monochrome vomit
I noticed that metal show posters are putting band names in plain text underneath their incomprehensible logos and I legit love it lol
Also got album art today and omgggg
Last "first mix" is in the bag! Very cool to hear everything in a row. I'll be honest; I wasn't sure how this album was going to shape up. The focus was squarely on each individual song. So I was a bit worried they wouldn't flow well. I'm no longer worried. It flows just fine. Songs are tight af too
10/11 songs are polished and ready for mixing! Songs are all sounding super tight and breezy. Looking forward to the rest of the process!
Totally unrelated, but I'm starting to get into composing retro-ish (PS1/N64 style) video game music too. If you know anyone who wants some cheap, custom, non-AI tracks, hit me up!
To say I'm excited about the 2026 band would be a huge understatement.
I can't wait to storm stages with these guys. They add so much energy to these songs.
Justin Lawnchair - Guitar/Vocals
Dan Hunter - Bass Guitar
Dhruv Talekar - Rhythm Guitar/Backing Vocals
Alonso Umana - Drums
Hey look! A 2 hour podcast episode, featuring an ultra-deep dive into everything Biscuit related. Perfect for your commute, or Stardew Valley binge. There's also a WORLD EXCLUSIVE PREMIER of my newest song, Golden Age, at the end!

Counting down to 2026, I'd like to introduce my band for next year! Mostly familiar faces, but there might be a surprise in store.
First off, me! I know it might come as a surprise. But yes, I am in fact in the band.
I haven't worked on tapping in a long time and now my tapping finger hurts. I can't believe my whole hand used to hurt like that lol
Guys can we PLEASE stop acting like there's an album out there that's better than Rust in Peace?
It doesn't exist. And it's not even close.
Got the first mix of the first song was yesterday. It rips.
Our rhythm guitarist, Dhruv, released his long-awaited new album yesterday! Highly recommended if you're into early 00s nu-metal, or if you just like heavy grooves. This has all of that (and a bit more!)

Recorded some really cool stuff for next year's instrumental track today. Started out as just a weird series of odd-time arpeggios, and it's morphed into a sonatina of sorts. Three distinct sections. Main part of the opening section sounds a bit like early Scale the Summit (for people that remember)
Right? The opening songs have been insane. More Than Meets the Eye and Brotherhood alone are 10/10 thrash revival songs
Agreed completely. The first three songs are excellent. It falls off super hard though. Unfortunately I feel that way about a lot of their albums
It's Bandcamp Friday! Great opportunity to catch up on your biscuits. I'd recommend Tempora if you want something proggy and melodic, Visible Scars if you want something to rip your face off, and Phobia if you want both!

Started the week with 2 songs finished and ended the week with 5. October is a hell of a drug
35 years since the greatest guitar album of all time was unleashed
Music is the best
Yes I know I haven't posted a lot. I was in Japan and now I'm recording for next year's album. I don't have a social media manager soooooo it's just going to be quiet sometimes. Thanks for checking in though!

It's been a quiet time in Biscuit land lately, but here's a fun little curio. Back in January/February we did a live session at a local studio in Detroit. It was a bit of a warm up for our first gig in March. Live recording, no click! Super energetic.

Black Sabbath Discog Run Pt 2 - Paranoid
Yeah, everyone knows Paranoid is good. Still blows me away though. It holds up today, but listening to it in 1970 historical context is mind-destroying. War Pigs, Electric Funeral, Hand of Doom. Come on. This is the heaviest shit on EARTH at the time.
