Lyrics

They look pretty lame without the surrounding music... which all is probably just to show that I ain't no poet. Well, FWIW, if you want to see the lyrics to the songs I have released, be my guest.

TitleQuick Description
2Fingers (heroin mix)It's... Alterna-ballady. Can't think of any comparisons.
Blurb:Mellow, lots of room, 7 minutes, some interesting dynamics, heroin mix is waaay downtempo. More vocal tracks than you can shake a stick at, and some are in tune!
Chance EncounterIt's... Shuffle Blues, with that Chris twist. Stevie Ray meets Chuck Berry meets a gazillion shuffle blues players.
Blurb: Simple, catchy, fun. Has a nice idiomatic solo, or so I've been told.
Learning 2 BreatheIt's...Rock/Pop. Beatles, Oasis, Radiohead, Lenny Kravitz influences
Blurb:Uplifting, pretty, and dynamic, with an intimate vocal sound. Has a Beatles-esque riff in there!
LiftedIt's... Surf Funk. Hey, a new genre all my own. Some rock influences. Can't think of a comp.
Blurb: Upbeat, dynamic, fun, kinda dancy. My first drum lead!
n? MarmaladeIt's... a groove instrumental. Brand New Heavies, Graham Central Station, etc.
Blurb: Funky, dancy, in an old-school R&B way. Only live playing going on here, no samplers, no dj's, no bullocks.
Needs Mo' SaltIt's... Funk/groove/fusion/rock in the Parliament/Funkadelic mode with a N'awlins twist (Galactic, etc.). I've also been told it's Zappa-esque.
Blurb: Kinda wacky, kinda funny, definitely fun. See how many pop culture references you can spot.
OpinionIt's...Funk/Pop. James Brown-meets 3SP.
Blurb: Funny, funky, upbeat, cynical... always a party favorite. Hey, a tamborine!
PhongaIt's... Pop/Rock. A 50's pop tune with a modern edge.
Blurb: Catchy, playful, narrative. Better than a kick in the pants!
Rapping WaxodicIt's... Rock/Punk. More rock than punk. Probably influenced by the recent run of "garage" bands.
Blurb: Catchy and kooky. Destined to be my first radio-friendly unit shifter!
RelianceIt's... rock meets funk, let's call it alternagroove.
Blurb: White man soul meets QotSA-influenced rawk. Enough bass to shake your booty and the foundations of your house.
RipoffIt's... Rock. Straight-up Sabbath-meets-Nirvana rock/punk/pop. Which is kind of the point...
Blurb: You didn't think I had a straight rock song in me, did you? For the full effect, play this one loudly. Very loudly.
spastic cologneIt's...Punk/Rock/Psychadaelia. Sex Pistols, Nirvana, and whatever your fav psych band is.
Blurb: Misanthropic, lots of crunch, short short short (it's punk, whaddya expect?). It has some pretty-sounding phasered bookends!
Superior (slight return)It's... Funk/Rock/R&B. More James Brown-meets-3SP, plus some B'Gock and a touch of Beatles/campfire singing.
Blurb: Humorous, self-referential, fun, upbeat, kinda dancy old-school R&B feel. One of my favorite songs.
Theme from HoozatIt's... a dream, it's a scheme, it's... hoozat? The recurring theme of the Hoozat album (funk/groove)
Travis BickleIt's... Alternative/Pop/Rock/Blues/whatever. Elements of Tool, Radiohead, and Gypsy music.
Blurb: Narrative hard rockin/soft and dynamic swinging piece. It's musically interesting and catchy besides. My first tune in 3/4 time!
Wastin' TimeIt's... Rock, mebbe alterna-rock. Jane's Addiction, Pearl Jam, + some jazz and blues.
Blurb: Easily accessible piece featuring some humor and some guitar gawd riffing. There's even a psuedo-jazz solo!

By an unexpected turn of our history, a bit of the truth, an insignificant part of the whole, was allowed out in the open. But those same hands which once screwed tight our handcuffs now hold out their palms in reconciliation: "No, don't! Don't dig up the past! Dwell on the past and you'll lose an eye." But the proverb goes on to say: "Forget the past and you'll lose both eyes. - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
