clenching teeth
through an iron jaw
your eyes are just slivers on your face
rosy glow
on your porcelain cheeks
there is nothing not a trace
happy, are you?
losing sleep
the weight is heavy
you can barely keep afloat
clenching…

been so long since I’ve been out of the city
maybe even longer than I can remember
tried to leave many times, oh what a pity
there’s no around anymore to take me away
should I be a hermit in a barrel
under the brush creek bridge…

full, the ocean inside
of meadows smelling softly
of butterflies that swallow
all, there inside, it all
it’s too painful to think
and I must be stronger
than this tornado in my
soul, there inside, to release
tidal waves erupt…
I'll tell you a secret, a lot of them started out as piano songs, and then I had to learn to play them on guitar. every song but 1 has multiple guitars trying to do just that.

horrible life
needs a favor tonight
keep the fakers away
and the hipsters and the leeches from my sight
horrible life
needs a drink or nine
shortly everything’s bright
and the music is neither awful nor sublime
it’s all…

swollen and impossible to wade
underneath a canopy of cool dark trees
she’s waiting there for me
see her eyes reflecting in the swiftly moving water
hear her voice merge with the rustle of the leaves…

take a stand against the man
when you’re backed into the corner
bears his teeth and growls
and scratches his claws on the floor
it takes a village to decide
how to count the many ways

there’s hissing on the ground
keep your legs up high
listen for a rustle in the leaves
you can’t trust your eyes alone
it’s not a monster coming out
of a deep hole in the ground
this is real, I tell you
so real

I got me a new mic and a pre-amp and I picked up the Jumbo Eko (I'll do this again when my fingertips have recovered). I tried to do finger picking when I was a teen, but didn't pursue it as it seemed like too much hard work at the time. Today…
This is a song written for my daughter Rosa, who is 6 months old. It's about indoctrination, but by the look of her when I sing it, I'm not sure she gets it.

This is what happens when you can't get an internet meme out of your head.
You can leap tall buildings in a single bound
You can save a drowning man
You can stop a bank robber with your kung fu moves

Ok - a collab between myself, Lady Jane and FDR. I hope the MP3 does it justice. Nice one you guys.
I put the basics together, FDR did lead and suggested the theme on "gliding", and LJ created the words, sang, added some effects (chimes, woodblock…
A cool mixture of MIDI and conventional instruments.

There is no better lighter / slide :) Buy one, it could save your life.

Oh little girl won't you tell me what you were looking for when you came to this place?
You've got friends, but not many of them like to be seen.

i love how this goes from complete chaos and GNR licks into a pretty decent cover song. If i was you, i'd shy away from covers and write your own tunes, you guys have mad skills.

Love the chorus very AIC
Liking the acoustic direction on this album. THe drums sound great, too.
I'll tell you a secret, a lot of them started out as piano songs, and then I had to learn to play them on guitar. every song but 1 has multiple guitars trying to do just that.
Beautiful. Seriously, these song-opening arrangements are just outstanding.
Another outstanding track. Seriously great album, man.
New favorite. Seriously. This song is outstanding. Every part of it. Dang.
GREAT groove to this track. Seriously. What a sound you've got on this album. Just a brilliant unplugged album. Dang.

seriously, quit skipping over this and listen to it right now!
this mortal coil! love this song.
um, it's not an album if it only has 3 songs on it.
you are a genius.
i say f' her, cause this is a good song.
wow, it must be art, because i like it, though it did just destroy my earbuds, and i also believe my soul.
this is great, but you have got to get rid of that bubbling water sound, very distracting and unnecessary.
right where the Jesus Lizard vocals were supposed to come in, i was let down:( this thing is screaming for vocals. David Yow needs the work!
wtf X 100?
wtf???
i like your voice, so don't be so hard on yourself.
laid back and mellow. needs some sultry vox though. get on that would ya.
this guy just recorded vox for a song on my new album and it's f'ing amazing.
needs a more moving bassline but I like it.
groovy
i love this!
Love this song, seriously one of your best!
sounds like a very cool project!
i love this except the noodling at the beginning. you should start this with the drums.
i love how this goes from complete chaos and GNR licks into a pretty decent cover song. If i was you, i'd shy away from covers and write your own tunes, you guys have mad skills.
