the ever growing night

This is shortwave static recorded live and is unaltered and not processed. Recorded August 2008.

Well, this is why I don't play drums. It's the best Moon I could pull off. I keep hammering the gtr riff over and over, but it's because it was so much fun to play. Its structure is a little too meandering in hindsight, but oh well. For whatever…

The riff came to me in a flash and was probably the first time I recorded an idea on my (then) new micro-cassette player. It was supposed to be one of those spoken songs, complete with 70's backing vocals. I don't know if I pulled it off, but…

I have discovered PERCUSSION! At least, I had rediscovered it back in 2002, which is when I think I did this one.

A song for someone you know. A song for everyone you know. A song about denial, and denial of denial.

I really debated uploading this one. It's kind of weak production wise, but it was part of the album. You may love it, hate it, but I decided to keep everything intact. Warts and all...
Uploaded
An early one from that period. I was still learning how to do everything myself. It was fun to record, though in hindsight...well, it's a little thin.

We all know someone like this. Sometimes I'm like this. Anyway, recorded using my Epiphone semi-hollowbody. I love the gtr sound on this one. Again, it's older, so the sonic quality isn't anywhere near what I do now.
Uploaded
One of my first favorite songs...I had this idea floating around for years, even tried it with the band in late 98-99. This 2001 recording comes closest to capturing what I hear in my head.
Uploaded
Ok, so on this one I wear my influences on my sleeve. This is one that quickly went in one direction so I decided to ride it to the maximum. I still like the words to this one. I'm no Costello (Elvis) but I did ok here.
Uploaded
The title track. I still like this one, though it is somewhat dense, sonically speaking. Another song where I think I pulled of the lyrics relatively well.

When anger knows no bounds. When betrayal begets rage. When sleep brings no rest. When fighting is just the beginning.

So this track was purely for the fun of it. I was messing about in Omnisphere and came across this wonderful sound that reminded me of the guild highliners in Dune.
I built a beat around in using Stylus, Ricochet, and Dubstation. Then added more…

I almost thought I knew it, so very close to space and time
it almost makes me lose my mind
2 seconds closer to the, the moment fleeting thoughts are mine
so far away, so close

the future is uncertain as certain people know
the road behind as vague as the one before us
certain singularities seem less certain every day
the road less traveled once so clear has simply gone away

This is quite an old track that got abandoned because I didn't feel it was right or going anywhere.

Certain technology has made us soft and slow and easily distracted and though it started out as a way to make things easier for everyone, it has turned into laziness, and we don't even use that extra time for anything of value anymore.

Mick McGuire was "all that" when he was dating the family's older daughter (who was 40). As soon as he married her and spent all the money, poor Mick was subjected to his Mother-In-Law. Mother-in-Laws have gotten a bad wrap for hundreds of years.

Another Irish classic. This song tells the story of a group of pub regulars who, upon learning that the pub is on fire, head to the cellar to drink all the booze. You know, cuz it's free that way. What's a few burns?

This was the song that launched the entire SHAM ROCK album. This is what happens when you turn up the tempo, crank the volume, and add a horn section.

Beatnik Turtle's take on another ol' Irish classic.

We couldn't resist breaking out the traditional Irish instruments halfway through this one and going all Celtic on your arse.

This old song had a lot of braggin' in it. So, we couldn't resist giving it a bit of the old skool hip-hop flavor.

This song's extremely popular and so has been done to death. We decided if we were going to re-make this one, we had to try something new. So, we hit on the 7/4 time signature, the melodica (thought it was bagpipes, didja?), and arrangement. By…

Never, never again. How many times have we all uttered that statement the "morning after?" This song explores the regrets from the night before and blames it all on "devil drink cider called Johnny Jump Up".

Contrary to public opinion, the term "The Holy Ground" doesn't refer to the Emerald Isle. Nope. It's the name of a whore house that Irish sailors would visit. The Irish have quite a sense of humor...!

all the pounding waves
drowning out the sound

the still and quiet

I Believe by far my most beautiful instrumental track, much the
opposite of You Forgot Bush's War Crimes. Maybe because I haven't commited any?
I'm growing to accept that most of the time, my instrumentals should be short and
sweet.

I've never heard "Horse with No Name" all the way through, and i wasn't trying to

Not much to say about this but that it's one of the first songs I actually

Inspired partly by a co-worker who was a great, now lost musician. This track is
somewhat about my five year stint in Gallup, New Mexico (Bob Dylan anyone?). This
was written as a poem before I started writing Slumber Love.

I'm not usually good at mixing two of my songs together, but i think this turned
