About Me

NEW SONGS?
These are a couple tunes I've had in my back pocket for a long time. Decided to use them as "test songs" to get myself in the recording groove. They turned out alright, so here they are filling the musical void before I unleash the fury that will be the new album, which is going to be *very* different, so get all the sad-bastard acoustic shit you can while it lasts! Can't wait for everyone to hear the new songs; they should be finished by October.
