Lyrics:
I'm not sleeping
I'm staring at the ceiling
My mind's a thousand miles away
I'm finding faces in the shapes
of plaster that was scraped on the ceiling
Killing time is not so bad
but when you're trapped inside your head…
Lyrics:
I'm not sleeping
I'm staring at the ceiling
My mind's a thousand miles away
I'm finding faces in the shapes
of plaster that was scraped on the ceiling
Killing time is not so bad
but when you're trapped inside your head…
Lyrics:
Pass me a handle of that old time tennessee
It's been a while since I've seen the devil
It's a common mistake to think that I'm a sweet and gentle soul
but give me a chance to change your mind
Cause you have never seen me like…
This one's for that little black and tan, Nahannah.
Lyrics:
I said nahnay nahnay nahnay hey
how'd you get so good
how'd you get so good
I said nahnay nahnay nahnay hey
how'd you get so good
how'd you get so good
first thing this…
...real nice here; that end-of-phrase chord is wonderfully ambiguous -great emotional metaphors.
Thanks for listening to, and commenting on 'Sunrise...'
Happy New Year!!

Lyrics:
A lazy hound lying on the couch
sleeping the day away
The sunlight comes pushing through the curtains
warming the old dog's face
The savory smell from a wood burning stove
holds you while you awake
Brew some tea while others emerge…
WTF! we have known you too long and we only just now hear these amazing sounds of yours? we love it brando!!! great sounds friend... (where's the harp? call ryan anderson in tucson. he's a rad guy! great song, mate)
Originally a very different song, slowed to a dragging pace and laced with dense moans of twisted agony. There's a little bit of John MacDonald on lead guitar in the build too.
Lyrics:
Caged as a bird
free will is such a bitch
it's your responsibility to stay alive
pay the bills etc, etc
but how you enslave yourself
whether or not you enslave yourself
it's up to you

Dichotomy and harmony, hand in hand. Cool blue washes over the warmth of amber. The criss-crossing and melding of major and minor chords leave us anticipating where this will go next... all the way to the end. Well conceived, well played.

The song was constructed around a field recording of Lacandon men paddling across the lake in Métzabok, Chiapas (Southern Mexico). The Lacandon speak "Hach T'an," which is a Mayan dialect-- this is the language you hear in the track. Unfortunately…

Suds, you bet I'm interested. I'm off in Renton (Oh to Renton) right now with Blythe, but I'll be back in action in a week or so. I'm planning on attempting another 24h on 8/30. I'm hoping that will kick off the new era.
This is one track where I can say, without reservation, that I am really happy with how it came out.
I worked up a beat I liked with 3 Stylus RMX parts making good use of chaos and time designer for the breaks.
For the first time I really…

Just a slight rework from early this year. New mix and vocals sometime in the near future. I'm lazy.
Here I attempt to articulate a few distinct feelings of the home, or the affect of cultivating one's own space, or not.
Instrumentation: house keys, pots and pans, long bamboo flute, synth, drum programming, voice(s), and didgeridoo (a real…

BRILLIANT! This is beautiful man!
oooooh this is great!! I really like the beat, vocals and the clean guitar around 1:58 or so.
This is kick ass! Really like the guitars and bass in this. Thanks for your comments too by the way!

That's a wonderful gift. It's always nice to hear new work.
This is great. Love the info and picture. This song is a whole package; the real deal.
Well then, looks like we've started an inspiration feedback loop. I'll be trying again 8/30 if anyone is with me.
BTW this is one amazing piece of work. The bar is raised too high, and I can't see it anymore. Next time 'round I'll just stroll right under it.
These new tracks are amazing. I love this one, and two headed sweater is a masterpiece. Vox up on all please. So good.

Nice, I'm ready to rally.
sweet.
Great new tracks. I'm looking forward to delving back into alonetone soon.
I'm left speechless by this.
I agree with ACL. This will be a hit.
Incredible!
My very first fav even favoriter!
Diggin it.
Whoa, where the women at? It's f***in time! Always loved this one.
This song is hilarious and great. When did all these tracks appear? I have some catching up to do.
I've been really into an 80's, new order style sound lately. This track really does it for me.
Always love your guitar work. So beautiful.
faved 3secs in.
Damn! No wonder this is "kicking ass". I'm glad that piece uses a french press. It's more potent that way.
