I was inspired by Rise Against's "Hero Of War" to write a song about a soldier killed in combat and what it does to a family.

I used to listen to rap before I started playing guitar. Once I started playing guitar though, that all changed. I first started playing guitar i think when i was 8 but my brother broke the guitar and i just never picked it back up again. My cousin…

This song is basically about having someone in charge of you whether at work or wherever and they just have no idea what they are doing.

Embarrassingly I assigned the wrong channel while recording drums and lost some stuff. Should be more low-end drums. Oh, well. Such is life in February.

This needs some rearrangement... yeah... even so, don't ask me about the future, there is no future.

For whatever reason, pitch-shifting kazoo and running it through a lot of reverb is just fun for me. Working title: "Cirkus".

The title track to this year's RPM album. The lines actually forced themselves into being and then straightaway demanded that no other lines should be written.
When the songs speak that loudly, I do what I'm told.

THE LIGHTHOUSE
You hide an ancient soul
Behind your tired eyes
You keep a heart of gold
Buried deep inside
At least you tried
Always in control
Of what the world might see
Has taken quite a toll
You’re afraid that you might be
Lost…

The poem is by Jason Kirk Bartley
This is in 19 edo and I play drums using a Simmons SMDP1 drum pad. The quality of poem is a lot higher than my music which is kind of an odd psychedelic blues not usually associated with the subject.

Something more mellow. Got the idea from an Andy Aledort column in Guitar World magazine but can't remember which one and can't find the issue now.
Thanks for listening.

This is an extreme variation of Paganini's 24th Caprice, no where near the original. I just took some parts from it and did them my own way, not trying to follow the original version at all. Thanks for listening.

The first song started for RPM 2014, and the first song finished. The rhythm guitars are a doubled 12-string. The vocals are doubled, when not in harmony. Doubling has become one of the minor themes this year.
