Stumbled across this in the vault. Some cool summertime nightnoise from Hico, Tx. Listen close you can hear the coyote calls. Feel free to use it.

Homage, in various ways, to Bowie, Arcade Fire, Airborne Toxic Event. I wrote most of it while out running on dirt roads near the Cody landfill.

Title is a reference to a 2009 RPM album's title. It is a song about leaving Chicago.

This song is a meditation on the concept of freedom.

Again, Jess' lyrics speak for themselves. Man, distorted guitar is tough to mix around.

Jess wrote the lyrics for this one, and unlike when I write lyrics, they speak for themselves.

This song is about George Washington, and how politicians in the *cough* future world this album inhabits *cough* could perhaps use a bit of his character.

Inspired by the David Brooks book "Bobos in Paradise" and an article I read on the so-called "Prosperity Gospel", which is one of the weirder religious movements I've heard of.
