Of transcendental meditation and other stuff...

I was watching an interview with Alkaline Trio, and Matt Skiba said that he recently started doing something called transcendental meditation. He said that it made him very calm and relaxed and stuff, but he also brought up an interesting point: he said that, before this new form of meditation, he thought that being in a negative frame of mind was extremely good for the creative process. Now that he had started meditating and relaxing and letting go of his anger and frustration, however, he says that he believes the opposite to be true.

I, personally, think that negative emotions translate well to the creative process, and I would go so far as to say that all of my lyrics are living proof of that, but I'm curious - what do you guys think?

In other news, I just started the music for Burning Bridges, and it's mostly a piano song. Once I get someone who is actually... you know... good at piano, I might jazz it up a bit, per se, but I'm liking it, so far. Simplicity, piano wise, but a bit complex with the guitar. Just some overdriven guitar over the piano, but it's very solo-like. Kinda jazzy. It's cool, I'll post it later on.

That's all I have to say, tonight - I'm fucking depressed.

Sleep well.
