Bury Your Tracks

Thanks Curtis, for pointing out:
A more ambitious song I’ve been working on for a while. Would really, really love any feedback. I think past the 1:50 mark I feel pretty confident, but before it feels a little shaky to me, especially the first thirty or so seconds.
Green traveling hat knit around my head.
One of these […]

The Last Time I Saw Moscow

Just came across this:
A very lo-fi one-take recording by The Grandma Sylvias. Acoustic guitar and vocals only; all apparent distortion is coming from knobs turned very high.
This was written when I was listening to the first Mountain Goats record nonstop, but it’s not really an imitation Mountain Goats song — more of an attempt […]

Shelter

Interesting:
This is a song a friend of mine named Audrey Johnston wrote that I think is pretty. My favorite line is “oh, write it down in a letter how you travel so far and it’s the same weather.”

I fell in Love with the Bearded Girl

Just came across this:
More from my 4-track dump onto the PC. Lyrics written very loosely and improvised on the spot; it is about a 6-year old falling in love with the bearded lady midget at the fair, and running away. The song has an anxious, circus-gone-wrong aura to it. It was recorded […]

Sissy Mean Jeans

Earl emailed us this:
Android is the new Gay… …in this future.
The machines struggle to justify their own consciousness. They fold beneath the weight of their designers' irrational expectations.
The humans struggle to hold onto their skin. They buckle under the desire to shed their skin.
Both are blind to the fact that they are starstuff.
In space, […]

Wishing Well

This is interesting:
It's a song about playing make believe games, and pretending that everything's going to be alright, when really it's all gone to shit. It's also somewhat of a sea shanty.

More Songs About Oven Mitts

This is an interesting post:
This is a song about a decommissioned Killbot, forced to work in a kitchen baking and whatnot. He is pretty angry about it. accoustic guitar, electric guitar, squeezebox
Lyrics:
Humans turned on my power switch
must want a pie or a sandwich
I am no longer a killbot
railgun was retooled to spatula
must kill, must […]

Jettison

This is an interesting post:

Dr. L’Amour

Found this post:
A friend of mine had a terrible crush on her podiatrist, so I wrote a song about it. It's a lo-fi-ish ditty that includes accordion, glochenspiel and my dad on tuba.
