Chin up. Better a 3rd rate Cabs than a 7th rate loser.

In some weird way, that does make me feel better. I'm not entirely sure how. Though I wouldn't call any of the artists involved with Merciful "7th rate losers".
We'll see what people think of the next few songs, I suppose.

don't worry hon, you were young and innocent back then
there's so much stuff being said about
that it's hard to tell whether
any of it has (at least) a shred of truth
thank you for your compliments

Indeed, once took a tasty dose of heroin by accident thinking it was the good stuff... I was young and niave..
thinking it was the good stuff = young and niave
so the good stuff would have made you mature and wise

The UK classifications are ridiculous though. Check out this on wikipedia:
Rational scale to assess the harm of drugs (Based on data published in The Lancet)
As an example, LSD is class A but less harmful or addictive than many class B (amphetamines), class C (barbiturates) or even legal (alcohol, tobacco) drugs.

As usual, most likely compiled by people how never tried most substances themselves ...

well i havent time to read that at the mo but will take your word - i don't think the current laws are right and i didnt think it would help when they down scaled marg, but i don't think anything would solve problems caused by use.

Those can just as easily be applied to my own band. Though I'm quite aware of that.
I think
Prohibition Of Still Life is pretty good if that means anything
...which it probably doesn't

We are Korrosiv, an industrial music group. We put out a noisy album, covered a James Ray song, then things got a bit confusing. Now we're releasing a new single and writing new material.
And cheers, Nate. That's one of my favourite Korrosiv songs, been played at all but one gig.
