This song's about getting reacquainted with your ol' guitar after neglecting it for a few years.
Back in 2006 our band started working on writing and recording music for our project, TheSongOfTheDay.com where we released one song for each…

"There's a dude from Indiana rockin' real hard to Carlos Santana!" If you've ever been to Indiana, you'll know where this came from.

While the name of the song is a Spinal Tap reference, this one is almost a period piece, taking us back to the early 80s when record players and mixtapes were how we listened to and shared our music.

This song's about that guy in the band who really can't play and just doesn't get any better, but pays for studio time, buys the gear, springs for beer, and owns the van. You always have to think twice about kicking the guy out with all the money!

Girls! Women! Birds! Chicks! This song's about all the pretty girls out there (and you know who you are)! This song celebrates each and everyone of them.

The musician's anthem! This song hits on a Beatnik Turtle theme about not wanting to work (see our first RPM album: All In A Day's Work). Instead, all you want to do is bang on the drums all day. And yet, work, life, and the inevitable day job…

This is us tempting fate. Jumping the shark refers to a defining moment on the TV show "Happy Days" when Fonzie literally jumps over a shark on waterskis -- all while wearing his leather jacket. Everyone watching immediately knew the show would…

An obvious reference to the classic movie, "Blues Brothers" (which takes place in Chicago -- where we're from), this song tells the cliched story of the band that reunites after years away from each other thanks to "creative differences", "growing…

Beware all ye who enter here. This song's a stern warning that being the front man of a band is not what it's cracked up to be. Consider yourself warned.

The truest confession of a sincere man choosing love over all else.

I don't wanna lose you
And if I choose you
Promise you won't go
Don't go
I don't wanna lose you

"Well Alright A great piano driven song. Though Peasant aka Damien DeRose is more known for his acoustic guitar melodies, I think this is a nice departure from it. I believe he's got an album coming out March 2nd, so if you're diggin' this keep…

There are a bunch of bass tracks going on here. Headphones help pick out what's going on. This one came to me leaving Taos on the drive back to Phoenix, coming down out of the canyon. I suddenly became conscious of a disturbing dream from the…

Once of City Steve and the Neon Lights. this was my first cover.
This song is done in the style of "the rake Song" by the decemberist. yeah. that just happened.

Lyrics:
Ain’t that a shame, ain’t that a shame?
I got no one left to blame for all my troubles
and nothing real to show for all my pain.
Ain’t that a shame?
They’re all the same, they’re all the same,
all those women that I blame for…

Lyrics:
I read a love letter that you wrote to me.
It started off honey and it ended in a frenzy of bees.
You wrote that love’s a translation
of a third hand version of an old incantation.
But it ain’t that simple…
Your love ain’t nothing…

Lyrics:
Babe, if I may be so bold
I swear that you don’t look that old
In fact I’d say you look alright.
So if you want to write my number down
I could show you all around this town
And show you what we do at night.
Well you look like…

Lyrics:
Well there ain't nothing, nothing you could ever do to break my heart again...
You lied and oh you cheated.
You hung me out to dry.
Left me standing in the cold

There ain't nothing, nothing you could…

The obligatory ambient piece. I really wanted to experiment with balancing the bass and treble; it seems to have worked quite well. Bonus marks if you can identify any of the samples.

Self-explanatory. Sorry if it breaks your speakers :)

We move miles away from Bristol trip-hop and take a trip to Paris. This Daft Punk-inspire piece really allowed me to lighten up a bit during the lonely production stages.

I've gone more acoustic for this piece with bass and guitars courtesy of Jaz Arwand and the lovely, airy sound of Jess Spencer's voice. The song is about empathy or lack thereof.

The album kicks off with one of the gritter, darker songs. The amazing, gravely voice you hear is that of Linda Harrison.

Paper Girls is one of those tracks which I wrote based on my experiences that I hope others can relate to in their own way. Soft, breathy vocals courtesy of Anezka Piska.

This is the centrepiece of the album; my self-confessed preferred track to RPM HQ. Powerful vocals by Jen Gibbons and heavy beats supplied by Chris Thomas. The drum track was heavily overdriven to crispen it up and the kick was given a lot of…

You live long enough... you take some real hits. And the only way to get on, is, to, "Pick myself up, walk down the long long road". Lifes real easy when it's all theoretical, but it's never been lived until the theories and philosophies are trashed…

Some shun or dare not partake in the discussion of passing on from this life. Many search for meaning and fanciful places to reside, after their earthly shells have been left behind. This song is sweet reminder that ignoring and falsifying of…

A tale of the lonely soul who is desperate to feel connection. The Asterisk Zero is the child who opens fire on fellow school children, with no understanding of the depth and complexity of the pain they are causing. This song is a soul searching…

This is the first song that was completed with vocals by Vinyette. It is inspired by a dream or nightmare really. The scene is set in purgatory, which happens to be a dark subway train running at full tilt into an abyss of track lighting. The…

I recorded this one to a dimming flashlight on the 25th after a windstorm took out my power. I couldn't see the lyrics anymore so I ad libbed and hummed the rest out. My recording device is battery operated, which is cool.
