DAATP Lore - Q/A time with Kogi
After my post the other day, I got a comment from the legend Kogi. At first I was just going to answer it in the coment section, but my response kept getting longer and longer, so I thought it made sense just to post it all here. Maybe it will be interesting to a few others.
11-Plus Years & 5 Million Visits later...
"The song written the week that Jerry Falwell died. Couldn't resist the urge to kick that prick when he was down." - Chris Colohan on writing Dead Air At The Pulpit for Cursed
I don't really know how to begin this post, but let me just tell you that this little blog of ours got it's 5 Millionth view today (!) and I'm at a slight loss for words. Five million views may not mean much to some websites, but I could have never imagined that 1: we would even still be around all this time later, and 2: that we would even come close to approaching that many return visitors. I honestly can't believe we haven't been shut down by now by the almighty Blogger Gods. I kind of implemented a built-in failsafe for that, if you've noticed, I have tried to go back to the early ways and only post about new bands that offer their music for FREE on Bandcamp (Don't worry, the chat will always be the Wild Wild West of hardcore downloads, I love all you guys that are in there every day). I think this approach has saved us on more than one occasion, and I also feel like it's my way of helping out the little guy. There have been so many killer blogs that have inspired me, but are now sadly gone (Shout out to Elementary Revolt & Manic Compression, among many, many others), but throughout it all, we are still here. I thank them for their service and I hope we are still here for another decade or two, at least. Thanks for hanging out with me all these years and helping me find so many great bands. ~Adam
