Weathered Souls

My name is Callum.

Over the past few years I've grown tired of reading and seeing all the negativity and hate for almost everything on the internet.

I write a lot about music in particular, I focus on the positives, not the negatives.

I feel like there's a lack of positivity online when it comes to everyone being a critic.

Fred Mascherino: A Decade Under the Influence

fredmascherino:

Ten years ago this week, I called Eddie Reyes and talked to him about joining Taking Back Sunday. Five weeks later I was playing Philly Warped Tour to 18,000 people. When I first joined the band, I had to stay in Long Island to practice so I stayed at Willie Noon’s parents house. I’d wake up on…

I’ve been a big fan of every incarnation of TBS, however Louder Now is my favourite record of theirs and I love Fred’s work with TCF and Terrible Things.

Yesterday’s Sun Set was awesome!

ANNOUNCEMENT: http://bit.ly/11FFtiAWe’re just gonna tell you everything at once because we’re friends and we just have to let it out. WE’RE DOING A HEADLINE TOUR AND DENNIS WILSON IS OUR NEW DRUMMER AND ALSO BOOM HERE’S A SONG OFF THE NEW RECORD. Yup.This is our first headline tour in who knows how many years. We’ve been waiting for this. You’ve been waiting for this. Well… wait no more (just till September - but presale is available NOW)! We’re playing oldies, deep cuts, and lots of new jams from OUR NEW RECORD. You all have breathed a lot of life into this record, and we can’t wait to be in these rooms with you, singing the old and new songs together. We’re gonna lose our goddamn shit. You’ve seen some recent setlists making the rounds on the interweb - we’re gonna go even deeper. We’ll be joined by Into It. Over It. (Full Band) and Hostage Calm on all dates. We picked these bands because we like them and we like what they’re about. Know about them. Go on and say hi, they’re top blokes.Speaking of Top Blokes, say hello to Dennis Wilson. You may have seen him play all of our 2013 shows with us so far. He’s already been initiated into our little pirate gang, he hits the sound-cylinders with power, and he digs Quicksand, Led Zeppelin, Elliott Smith, and Superchunk. He fits right in. Maybe you’ve seen him drum for EVERY AVENUE or THIS IS HELL? We’re keeping him now. Go on and welcome him into the family! #thedenniswilson.Speaking of family, we’re excited to see all of you - you guys became part of this album and we’ve leaked some snippets and nuggets over the course of us making this thing. Finally, here’s a song we can share with you. It’s called #REMEMBER. Turn it up. Share it. Hug your friends. Take a picture of a dog. Do the gorilla. See you on tour! #PUNKTHEFUCKOUT

Sunday Night Songs #1 

This track is from “The Pioneer Sessions” an acoustic collection of songs originally put out by William Beckett accross three EP’s in 2012. I felt it fitting to start off with this song as Beckett’s own blog gave me the idea to post a favourite song up here, every Sunday.

I was a big fan of The Academy Is.. and continue to be a big fan of Beckett’s solo career, this version of this song is my favourite. If you like acoustic music, you’ll love this.
