"Everything that is not spring from tradition is plagiarized Begin drawing and painting as the old masters, to always do as you wish you will always be respected "
-Salvador Dali

Year Long Disaster took Salvador Dali's words to heart when they began to build the mainframe ideas that would form their fundamental musical intentions Modify alone the original blues models of the Masters, Cream Free ZZ Top Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin among others year round Disaster are more likely to play shuffles as the base back beat and chorus to determine which dependent dynamic moment of the song appeals most memorable moment, this may prove ina riff a recurring vocal line or in a sonic assault stemming from clean energy Riffs extend last four bars Lyrics may not repeat itself-year Disaster embraces the humanity and simplicity in songwriting with the ability to improvise allows the audience to participate in the moments that will never exist again.
