Wrong.

Strapping would still be awesome. But then there would be "SYL, now with more PARODY" and it would also be awesome. :wink:

By you, BrunoN? Hee hee.

No no. I reckon an entire country version of SYL is in order.

Im 17 actually but id like to leave feeling about SYL the way they were, without them turning into a joke band, what your suggestiong sounds like punky bruster. Deconstruction of a cheeseburger sounds like a fun record.

I'd be nice to hear some stripped down minimalistic acoustic Strapping.

The vision I had in my head was nothing like punky, although it would be just as funny!

As much as like Strapping, I love Dev's "solo" stuff a bazillion times more, so Dev writing and recording at home is the best thing that can happen as far as I'm concerned.

I hope I ain't doing this when I am thirty because I feel this way at the moment and it is not something I am overly proud of. It's like saying, "Hey everybody, I have a bad temper."

seems about right

Don't they have to break-up first to have a reunion?
The way I see it, they're taking an extremely long holiday... just because they don't play gigs doesn't mean the band stop seeing each other entirely.
