Random shit I've recorded

About Me

I've been in a bunch of different bands and groups. Recorded a bunch of unrelated shit. Just thought I'd post some of it up for my friends to hear. Hopefully the songs will be changing frequently. That was how it started. It's mostly been, as of late, a great way for me to post my solo musings. Being recently transplanted in Bristol from the US (North Carolina) the change of scenery has invigorated (notice I didn't say REinvigorated) my desire to write and record. I'll still try and post some of the other random shit and I'll continue to post a blog about the tunes as I post them All comments are appreciated. Oh, and I must give credit to Chris (Shinn) for the idea- seeing as how I straight jacked it from him.
I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!

Super Hero

Point Out Dexter's latest recording. Don't know if it's going on the record. The whole band's not on it- I think that's the real reason for the dispute. It was written after Derek and Deitrich saw a p...
