Obviously built on a crappy Dillinger Escape Plan knockoff. Was messing around with the pawn shop guitar and programmed drums, and it just happened. :) Added the second guitar track and bass after I got home.

Manipulated "field" recordings, either from the hotel room or from the studio, after I got back.

Recorded on my laptop in a hotel room 750+ miles from home. Programmed drums. Bought the guitar (a blue Alhoon) from a pawn shop when I arrived, then sold it back before I left. Worked out to about $2.45/day to "rent" it, and I didn't have to…

This one combines a bunch of things I like: rain, storms, weird keyboard patches, auditory snapshots of a particular time, sleep, and NOAA weather radio. (I developed an affinity for that last one while working third shift alone at Kinko's way…

The words come from a story by Robert Chambers (public domain, and available on Project Gutenberg). Think I recorded the weird noisy guitar part first, then played along on drums, then added the voice.

I like Captain Beefheart, but I'm not good at showing it. :)

Another one on the Cat Head Lowebow, this time with more effects.

Paean to a local state politician who stepped up to the national stage. Also, this track is one of the reasons we started using a click track in 2018...

Another pastiche/casserole of studio scraps and robot voices. Tulip, our youngest cat, has a ray gun keyboard solo just after the 4-minute mark.

Makes me think of a small New England port town in a storm, for some reason.
