(if you missed Part 1 and/or Part 2, you're gonna be lost) UPDATE : I've added a video of a full Godless performance right over here, if you're interested. Over time, Godless had picked up a pretty good following. The goth kids would come out in full force, and I got to know a few of them and sort of embed myself in the goth ...

(if you missed Part 1, you're gonna be lost) UPDATE : I've added a video of a full Godless performance right over here, if you're interested.

I grabbed my bike and rode over there, just to see if maybe there was anything in there I could use to fuck them over. When I walked up to the apartment, I could ...

I told this story to some friends on my birthday a few years back, and they still reference it as my "origin story". They seem to think this is how I became who I am today.
