Yes, there's a new album coming. This summer, actually. LOTS of music.
I thought I'd offer this appetizer . . . . the final version will have lyrics/vocals.
More to come . . .

Still working on the new album.
In the meantime, here's something that won't fit in on there.

LYRICS:
Live to my potential
End my life in debt
Meet no expectations
except what I regret
I lost
what a cost
There's no way I would have won
I know
let it go
There's no point what's done is done

A much different version of an old demo. Sometimes things really do change.
LYRICS:
Been lost
for quite some time
who knew what to do
Living with
the runaround
Never had a clue
Suddenly
it all changed
Shook me to my core
I'll…

Another cover of a rare throwaway song of Kurt's. I was shooting for the mellower Nirvana sonic palette.
LYRICS:
Well congratulations you have won
It's a year subscription of bad puns
And the make-shift story of concern
is to set it off…

A friend of mine died recently.
In memory of P.S.
LYRICS:
Your presence is mandatory
to show that you care
It's never a question what you
are going to wear
You can't arrive naked There are
still standards in hell
You've worn it a…

Guess I'm keeping this one an instrumental. :)

A guy I know told me I never write happy songs. I tried my best.
LYRICS:
It's just you and me here now
up here on a cloud
What do we care? When we're
drifting on castles made of air
You have nothing left to fear
up here in the…

Apparently there are 2 songs known as "Bambi Slaughter" by Nirvana. This is NOT a cover of the Fecal Matter demo, rather the solo acoustic Kurt did in the summer of 1987. It is also known as "Creation".

Heed a lover too

This is a complete redo/redo of a an old two-part song of mine. It just had to be done.
LYRICS:
Not the ending everyone expected
Who cares if you go out with a bang
well either way
you seize the day
or try to while you can
Shall we…

I love the Foos almost as much as Nirvana, I owe more to that band than probably anyone.
Also, I like to COVER the rare stuff, so if you're not familiar with the song, it's because it was only performed live once at Lupo's in Providence, RI…

This is the closest I'd get to psychedelic rock, I don't even know what to call this kind of song, to be honest.
Technically this is a redo of an old demo song of mine, but of course things grew in the retelling.
The rock section of the…

This rare song was played twice live by the band in 1993, and a short instrumental demo version was also recorded at their last recording session at Robert Lang studios in February 1994.
Most of the lyrics for this cover are from the performance…

Man, so much for simple songs without five part harmonies. Technically this is a redo, but it is very different than the very old demo I posted on here a few years ago.
Also, the lyrics contain the answer to this riddle: which of these- the…

As requested, a "new" Nirvana cover for y'all. As an aside, 7 part harmonies suck! I don't know how Freddie Mercury put up with it.

Another cover of a rare Nirvana song for y'all.

Another cover of a rare Nirvana song. A bit of extrapolation was required.

This song's about why sometimes you have to live your life, even if other people don't like it. Yeah, and I like Shakespeare too.

I don't know why you won't speak to me
I could use a little sympathy
I don't know why there must be…

So I moved to North Carolina to be closer to family and it's been a good experience. However it was tough to leave some people behind. This song is about that.
BTW, there is a riff about 8 minutes in written by my buddy Chris Schugg

Something new for ya. Had to piece this one together . . . wasn't much to go on since Nirvana was just messing around on this song, but that's part of the fun, extrapolating stuff.
For the record, I used the chords for the chorus that Nirvana…
