Xyster

Cody Ray Hyde (that's me!) has been asked by famous Minnesota rapper Joey Dox ("We Live in Minnesota", on the KQ radio station) to record a guitar/rap collaboration tune. Once its finished I'll make sure to post it on our myspace for those interested in checking it out.

The song that was originally titled, "Bloods Inc." is now titled "Barely Human". We also have a new song we have been working on, one of our best yet, and we now have the drums for a guitar tune called "The Listener".

"Unholy" "A Darkness Within Us" "The Listener" "Incipient" "Becoming the Beast" "For the Rest of My Life" "Bloodsinc." "Welcome to My Silent Nightmare" "The End of Life" "The American Dream" "Bullets" "The Anthem" "The Punisher" "Mindblower" "The Burning Chair" "Innervision of a Wounded Soul" "The Ballad" "My Redemption" "Demolish" "No More" "Undead" "Broken Statue" "Wake Up And Scream...." "Lets All Die" "Loaded Gun"

The reason why explained that in the last post is so that u kind of get a hint that some of these titles are currently just guitar riffs... "Becoming the Beast" "The Listener" "Incipient" "The End of Life" "Unholy Prayer" "A Darkness Within Us" "For the Rest of My Life" "Innervision of a Wounded Soul" "My Redemption" "The Ballad"

Hey, we know it's been awhile since we last updated news on this thing....but I'd thought I'd let u in some stuff... In our writing progress, what we do I (Cody) come up with new riffs and solos on my guitar until I have a full song, I name it, I show it to Jade, our drummer, he comes up with the beat, and if we like the song one of us writes the lyrics to it...

Hey, fans!!! We have been constantly writing new music, and we just wrote this new song which is currently untitled, but will be titled as soon as we get some lyrics to go with it. Other than that, there's another song we wrote called "Redemption", which starts out kind of heavy and slow, then turns into a more fast-paced melody. Also, I have been working on a new ballad similar to "Loaded Gun", but a little more fast-paced with more guitar riffs... plus a few more guitar riffs I have been working on that will eventually turn into full-length songs. --Cody

Here's the new list of songs we have been working on:

1. Guitar Intro
*yes guys, I have a guitar solo intro I made up
2. BLOODS INC.
3. MY SILENT NIGHTMARE
4. THE DARKNESS WITHIN US
5. Hourglass (L.O.G. cover)
6. Spitting Bullets (Guitar Instrumental)
*I made this thing up like three years ago, I just never play it
7. Drum Solo
*Jade, do what u gotta do
8. THE AMERICAN DREAM
9. Raining Blood (Slayer cover)
10. LOADED GUN (the Ballad)
11. DEMOLISH
12. NO MORE
13. Am I Evil? (Metallica cover)
14. Seven Nation Army (White Stripes cover)

Last night we had band practice at Jade's, and we just wrote two new songs. One of them is called "Demolition", and the other is currently titled "To the People I Hate", or I say is yet untitled, which needs some work.

Cody ray Hyde of Xyster has written these lyrics for a new song called "Killing Myself", and is looking for some advice whether or not to use these lyrics...
Here's the song:
“Killing Myself”
(by Cody Hyde)

If I kill myself tonight
I will take this knife and run it through my chest
(THEN PULL IT OUT AGAIN)!!
(LEAVE TRACES OF INSANITY)!!
--Leave traces of insanity
Blood-stained on my bathroom wall
(BUT ALL THIS CANNOT WORK OUT)!!
It’s just another thought

[CHORUS]:
Why’d you have to be like this?
I will force these things out of my head
That I want to happen to me
I’ll do the best I can just to make it work
And if it doesn’t I won’t lose, for I
Will repeat these words again and again
Then I’ll say goodbye to the world
And see what’s there for me when I die

It is just a thought, for I will
Be found on the floor
(Next to a bunch of pills)
The door will be locked
And I’ll be in the tub
With water running warm and high
(AND BEFORE ALL OF THIS)!!--
--I will leave a message to my ex

Saying why’d you have to be like this?
I will force these things out of my head
That I want to happen to me
I’ll do the best I can just to make it work
And if it doesn’t I won’t lose, for I
Will repeat these words again and again
Then I’ll say goodbye to the world
And see what’s there for me when I DIE

(I’m killing myself)
(Now, I’m killing myself)
(I’m killing myself)
(Now, I’m killing myself)

Why’d you have to be like this?
I will force these things out of my head
That I want to happen to me
I’ll do the best I can just to make it work
And if it doesn’t I won’t lose, for I
Will repeat these words and again and again
Then I’ll say goodbye to the world
And see what’s there for me when I die

[REPEAT]
