Ask Pooka, this is very effective. Some days I come home and go straight for the drums, 15 minutes later I come out, dripping sweat, but perfectly calm. There has been a horrific cacophony of intensely subdivided notes--all four limbs in high gear. And right before this happens, my neighbor has seen a spectacled, gray-haired, professor-type in a cardigan sweater quietly stepping out of his little Honda and going in the house.

It's either this, or murder people.



And I agree, Toxicity is great for this purpose.

For advanced stress relief, something like Fire and Flames. And then you're getting a cardio workout, also.
