We Are The Original Decent at Best Stop Bittin' Off Us Ya Lame Tacomaites

 Found out that our clearly in use name is being infringed upon by hacks with no scruples. Total rip off of the name and spelling. We have circulated this name decades before anyone even tried to use it. Then came a High School band who used it in the mid 2000's. They actually were musicians and used the name because they were not aware. This is a different story altogether. Blatant rip off our already fleshed out band branding. They make noise pollution that's not even professional punk rock garbage. It's just unoriginal studio garbage to try and sell ya some horrible music with no soul what so ever. Please boycott all sales of these white kids trying to rip off of rhythm and blues, again. Gut wrenchingly bad I might add, honest truth it is that bad. That's why we are livid.

The World Is Full of Complaints

Too bad there isn't more guys like this.

First Album Thinking About Nothing Available On Last.fm

Thinking About Nothing is the first album that Decent at Best ever recorded. The album was recorded at Lyric Studios 134 Fulton Avenue Garden City Park, NY 11040 on March 13th 1999. It was then sold around Long Beach Middle School for a tidy profit.

Couch Potato

Sittin' around the house? Fixed to the tube?  In your boxers but wearin' shoes. Life is out the door go and catch it. Find new things new experiences it won't hurt a bit. What's to lose? Nothing but opportunities, an endless imagination to use. You might strike it rich or lie drunk in a ditch. Seems scary and you might be wary of stepping out the door. It's just the sudden change of routine nothing more. What's more frightening is wasting away and turning grey with no memories to tell you grandchildren. So get out there and make some
stories to tell them...

The Days

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays

 Decent at Best wishes everyone tidings of good cheer for Christmas and the New Year. For a fresh blanket of snow. For finding something beyond the Hallmark diversion, the thing that brings families closer together. The gift of giving maybe or the feeling of comfort being around loved ones. Despite the usual  family squabbles. A time of  jovial adulation and appreciation for the good aspects of ones life. Also there's Turkey.  Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year.

What Will 2012 Bring?

 Not too long from now it will be a new year, the year 2012. A year surrounded by many different ancient prophecies and end time scenarios. What will happen? Remember the fact that this is said to happen at the very end of 2012 just before 2013.  By the Mayan Calendar and other groups similar in mysticism. Only thing that will  happen for sure is the changing of the season. Maybe it's time to spend time with the family and the ones closest to you. Preferably in nature or at least a nice park somewhere closer to our Mother Earth. Less concrete the better.

No More

Seems we have joined The Endless War, rather they have joined The Endless War and we have to just deal. Regardless what the conflict is over, which is meaningless in any war. An excuse for total control and self justification of tyrannical rule. This sounds all to subversive you might think. "So The People say,'What's he got to complain about, just accept what's presented to you'," that would be one of many remarks on this subject. All in all people are starving and people are dying for what. Really think, we all know the world could be a great utopian society. Everyday we are fed images to trick us into believing that is impossible. All lies, all lies. We don't need to form anti-governmental groups. Just help your neighbor, wherever and whomever they might be. Just remember we are not different, we are all flesh and blood caring human beings. The world makes us forget that sometimes.

Brave New World

 It's a brave new world. It's long past 1984. What does this all mean? What does it amount to? Questions some cannot answer nor comprehend. Will we be part of this future? What, where and when will it truly begin?
