I have a love for solid, well-crafted love songs. Unfortunately, that's not what you're going to get here!

Daft Punk and Wire hire Le Tigre for an homage to Bert Convy. And the password IS 'raincoat.'

An older song that was originally inspired by Prefab Sprout's "Goodbye Lucille #1 (aka 'Johnny Johnny')" but has morphed into it's current state that's more influenced by Suicide and House of Love.

Lorelei reaches her breaking point after years of abuse — via a failed attempt at an homage to Ennio Morricone (had he been Mexican).

A deceptively forceful song dealing with the death of my sister.

An older song from a previous band that was never quite captured to my satisfaction. I was going for very laid-back "Pale Blue Eyes" vibe.

An exercise in configuring sonic spaces - it was only later that I realized the scathing lyrics were self-directed.

An attempt to evoke images that weren't in the first-person. I tend to write in abstract fragments and this piece is no exception.

A song that ended up in an entirely different place than from where it began. It was meant to have a dark 'David Gray' kind of feel, but ended up being the love child of 'Love and Rockets' and 'Stars on 45.'

A song that really crept out of nowhere and one that I don't entirely understand its meaning. Some things in the song I can pinpoint the origin, but some I haven't a clue. I'm really happy with the way it turned out - semi-ok vocal and all.
