I've got fookin' writer's block, guys.

Trying to finish the rest of my album in 3 days, but, fuck.

Need some tips for getting the muses to speak to me.

Inspiration is bullshit. Start working on something and don't stop until you like it.

Make a song in 4/4, between 120 and 130 BPM, any combinations of I, IV and V chords with an intro-verse-chorus-verse-mid8-chorus-chorus structure, it will be your best and most succesful song up to date.

just nitty gritty problem solve soe detail shit musically.
make lyrics that rhyme.
meaning is the listener's burden, not yours.

why must it be done in 3 days?
don't rush these things.

I suggest listening to a lot of world music to clear your pallet

This

I actually find it helps to feed "inspiration on demand" by giving you a wider base of ideas to work off of.

I've been suffering writer's block for the past six months - I've come up with four good riffs, which isn't nearly enough when you're supposed to be writing catchy tech death - started just recording random noodling sessions, and hashing out chord progressions, and suddenly I'm at half of an album.
