These Good Times,
In this Old Life
Are Earned...
Not Learned...
I’ve seen old faces,
Fade away,
In my mind…

absolutely, totally, completely love this song Tharek. This is the treatment that this song needed, it sounds so frigging good this way, unbelievable brother. That Geir is some kind of guitar god.

My heart will miss a beat
Each time
I see your pain
I know this is the end
But I
Will fight this tide
The battle is complete
Both sides
Have won this time
I will remember you
So proud…
Alright Tharek, i made it man. All 48 tracks listened to and can i say this is some seriously good sh*t?!?!?!?!?! I tried to wait to comment until the end, but the songwriting, music, and production is pro. Loved every second of it....maybe you could do like a box set CD release !! :)

Great vocals and lyrics... made up on the spot, eh? The whole song gives me the feeling of traveling through a busy place unnoticed, slowly, inching along... great track.
Wrote it over a decade ago, rewrote it five years ago, recorded it last year with the help of little sis Karen.
"I'm not supposed to be down south. Take me north."
To get ready for every baseball season, my father used to pitch tennis balls to me in the backyard. He had invented a pitch that defied the laws of physics. To this day, I have no idea how he threw it. The damn thing would spin like crazy like…
Great Song!
My Pa Had secret talents like that...
Sure and steady... But sure to work!
Taught me a thing about how to be a Dad...
Keep your cards close... And Never share the secret till the kid works it out for himself!
Great song!
Written for my youngest when she was very little, almost everyone who's had a kid that just would rather not sleep can identify with this song. Originally, there was a line in there about "Staying up this late at night makes me consider drinking…
I have a track called "Kin"...
I wrote it when the boy was going through "that time"...
"Kin" represented us all.. Three guitar lines. Me, the boy and his Ma...
I used to play it to him so he would sleep..
It worked... And made me realize how we would fit into each others lives..
This track brought back memories bro.
Thanks for that..
This track is eternal!
I used to cross over railway tracks on my way to the ballfield in college, and though I never knew why, I was always tempted to just start following them.
Sweet guitar bro!
I'm sure you recorded this live!
The complicated riffs only come in when you stop singing! I do the same!
Do You perform live?
I bet it would be awesome to see!
Faved!
A song written for a great girl who'll be getting married next year...
"You'll always be this young if love comes first
And you stay filled with life."
Hell yeah!
This track is Gold bro!
The true spirit of song writing...
Share lessons learned... Try and Help!
Another point about your songs..
A four minute song is a pleasure to listen to! That is hard to do bro! And you pull it off effortlesly!
The song that really kicked off this second album of 2009.
"In time all the stars will fade away
Our kind won't get to see it anyway
No shine, just endless black between the gray
I won't be going out in that way"

The sweet little girl I can't seem to get
Out of the back of my mind
Isn't quite sure what she's looking for yet
And I worry about what she'll find
Working so hard looking out for herself
I know there are times all alone
She's always had…
10 seconds in....
And the track has got me bro...
The Subject matter is Perfectly expressed...
But the performance bro...!!!!
You Don't stumble once!
Perfection......
Was this recorded live?
From what I have heard of your stuff, I can honestly say that your material rates as high with me as any pro that I may have purchased a CD from...
And the best thing about this is that it's free!

Here's another tune from the Wild and Wacky world of Rubber.
Special thanks to Erin - The Panes for lending us her magnificent voice.
As usual, we tore it up and turned it up side down.
Thanks again Erin.

Enjoy!
One for my electronic friends. It's just a bunch of patches mixed with MIDI and glued together with 1 part water, 2 parts flour, and 2 parts ectoplasma.
Enjoy!
Ring of Fire - lyrics by Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash -1963. Slightly modified.
This wasn't meant to be Ring of Fire but that's how it wound up.
I have been wanting to trash Ring of Fire and the words just seem to fit this simple 1-4-5…
pretty child
they're cheering away
as you ride through your kingdom of sand
lovely child
you're a hero today
you're a magical mystery man
like a bird on the wing
you soar through your dreams
let your fantasies sweep the skies
but you know it…
3 guitar tracks followed by a track with the trap set. A lot of alt tuning lately posted on AT which I like. This guitar was tuned to an open G. After I did it, I thought the sound was more like a backwoods, hillbilly song.
Unfortunately…
