Memory Hole
A sad/angry song about the place where all the things we'd rather forget end up. Inspired by MeFi politics filter, where I was first introduced to the concept of "the memory hole," which in turn gave rise to this song. (This is a redux post after I accidentally posted an old mix before.)

We totally spelled this wrong on our EP. Hope y'all like it.

A slightly uptempo cover of Tim McGraw's hit, recorded sometime in late 2004.

In which I squeak, squawk, and warble through a really, really loud cover of a Dan Bern song.

A quick and dirty cover of the Johnny Rivers classic for a lazy Friday afternoon.

This is some kind of punk, and my girls, (wife and her best friend) did the vocals. This is fun! Enjoy!

Tape really does sound better. And good mics, preamps, compressors, consoles...

On of my band
KiLiFAX's mainstay 'anthems', the song title pretty much says it all.

A while back, I posted a song called Yes, Dope. The vocal samples in it were from this here song, by my 80s punk 3 piece, The Whores. This song was included on a local sampler album put out by Glitch Records in '86, and inexplicably went to #1 on a little college station somewhere in upstate New York, and stayed there for 6 weeks. I was #1 in New york!

Sort of mildly generic uplifting pop-punk from my band (http://myspace.com/cutofffrequency). Recorded on our own, mixed on our own (not done yet), still yet to finish the mixing and mastering process.

Another "raw mix" alcohol-related song, this time as the solution to, instead of cause of, all life's problems.

I wrote this song for my friends that can't handle their alcohol. This is a very raw mix from our recording session this past Saturday. (lyrics inside)

So this is a song that my band PROMIS recorded about two years ago. We're from New Orleans and finished tracking on August 27, two days before Hurricane Katrina hit town. The song isn't about New Orleans though--it's about Oakland, California, in particular the Rockridge neighborhod and riding "casual carpool" across the Bay Bridge.
The instruments are a CP-30, a synth, drums, and some live violin.

This is much more the style I usually work in. Poppy, punky, and fuzzy. Maybe it's just because of the low grade equipment I use, but my songs always turn into big saturated buzz-fests. At least with this one, it was no accident. As usual, recorded by myself with guitars and robots. Hope you enjoy.
Lyrics inside.

If I keep this up, I'll go on tour with a Minutemen tribute band.
(I need to improvise a wind screen for the mic.) Enjoy!
Note: I never did get a new guitar. I had a friend rewire my Mustang. It sounds alright.

This is my first attempt w/ an all new rig; sound card and software. Lemme know what you think. Critique away! Enjoy!

My first actual song-length song with some fun stuff including a nice Greg Ginn style solo. Sadly my conversion to mp3 might have sucked-let's find out!
On Preview--WTF? (It's funny enough to let ride though! Enjoy!)

3 song medley I remastered from my old band 10-96's seminal release "No Retreat...."
I ripped it off of vinyl and transferred it into Pro Logic and then into mp3.....
Opinions welcome! (About the sound quality, that is.... I am looking to burn copies of the whole album to send to some labels for re-rerelease)......

I'm in a goofy mood. But I'm up to being challenged by the likes of augustweed and others who thump the four big strings. Also, I need to shake my "punker" leg every once in a while.

Ghost
A quick lil' song from my band
DIVISION OF PLANES. Recorded by Scott Norton winter of 2006 at
Headgear Recording Studios in Brooklyn, NY for our upcoming ep
Trembling Wires. Mastered by TJ Lipple at
Silver Sonya. Both TJ and Scott did an excellent job.
We got the masters back from TJ last week. I'll post a few more when I can.

snsranch JR#2. His first foray with no (very little) supervision in the studio. He's 8 years old. Kudos to the kid. I STILL can't sing and strum at the same time!

Here's a sarcastic little ditty about post-divorce helplessness, just in time for that freshly-single-the-holidays drinking binge. Recorded in 1986 by my long-defunct trio, The Whores, but never finished because we ran out of money. We weren't very good whores. Mixed last year by me at home in Logic 6.

Here's a Minutemen spoof about MeFi. Recorded with my son's first-act (toys-r-us) guitar-for some grit. This is my first try at "vocals" on MuFi. It sucks, but I haven't had time to do any recording work for a while.

More Archaic Audio Filter (Sex Pistol's Belson)
Something my bro sent me from our glorious punker days in the early '80s. At the time I lived out in the country I thought it would be cool with the neighbors playing loud out there on the porch. Two days later my farmer nieghbors informed me that not only did the band suck but thier chickens quit laying eggs. Oops! (Jesus, stop it, STOP IT, damn that's bloody awful!)

Like the blast of a/c on a hot summer day: nasal, off key vocals, a chorus melody ripped off from "Barbie and the Rockers," and it is all over before you can decide that it is the worst thing you have ever heard in your life. Kisses!

I know you never meant to bring it quite to this place
And everybody watching can see it's a hell of a show
I know you're only feeling like a mouse in a rat race
But there's just one thing I think you ought to know
If it's down to me or you, you got to go

Flaming Moe's
Written and performed by my old band - Hooray For Everything. This was included in a Simpsons tribute album that sold a boatload of copies. We recorded this in 1997, I think. We began with the lyrics from the song used in the original "Flaming Moe" episode (http://www.snpp.com/episodes/8F08.html) and then made the song our own...
When the weight of the world has got you down
and you want to end your life.
Bills to pay, a dead-end job,
and problems with the wife.
But don't throw in the tow'l,
'cuz there's a place right down the block...
Where you can drink your misery away...
At Flaming Moe's.... (Let's all go to Flaming Moe's...)
When liquor in a mug (Let's all go to Flaming Moe's...)
can warm you like a hug. (Flaming Moe's...)
And happiness is just a Flaming Moe away...
Happiness is just a Flaming Moe away...

Bleeding Hands
This is a song written by
Red On Strike's rhythm guitarist, Camron Gasser, inspired by a particularly bad day at work. Can't you see bleeding hands don't lie?

I know enough guitar to get me in trouble, but not enough to do me any good. That doesn't stop my from writing on the instrument, then letting Reason cobble my ideas together. This is me trying to sound like
Number Girl. All synthesizer, but I try to make it sound live.
