Another year, another release. I am proud of this new album. As an artist I grew a lot from doing my childhood cover album last year "Rainy Day...Sunday Afternoon...". It really changed something within me, and this new release shows it. Shadowland is a darker album than I usually make, not because I myself feel darker, but rather after tackling the subject of Light on my art albums "Smoke Through A Keyhole" and "Light In the Doorway", I felt it was important to delve into the Dark a bit. My thoughts on implicit opposites are that they are needed in equal measure to create value for the other. Dark is equally important. Positive...Negative...Good...Evil... both halves of the coin are necessary for the coin to exist. To embrace one's nature. To "live your animal"...so to speak. A Jungian idea I picked up from his "Red Book" and ran with. I won't discuss any more detail, as I think it is important for the listener to add detail and meaning. I hope you might listen to it and find something from it, or at least see something differently, however slightly.

Skyscrape Tongue Pendulum...
Skyscrape Tongue Pendulum
Return...return...return...return...
A beautiful night to be born.
By the serpent that feeds on itself and reborn...and again reborn.
Like comets on fire in the Hesparian Sea
Skies of lies, a river running free
No history.
No rage from the dying light
A primordial love
Scattered silver sighs sleep
While hurling towards the sun
A skyscrape tongue pendulum.
Into a limitless sea of light
A limitless dream of life
A limitless sea of light.
Life and Death conceal their unity.
From nothing is where everything is born...
A magnetic power of shining sudden dreams
Shadows of leaves against the golden-green fields
Into the singing sun I call your name...
Into the singing sun I call your name...
Is born...
Running Fast Again...
Just made a little video of Running Fast from my This Was Tomorrow album using footage from driving on tour and my front yard. Nothing too special, just a few hours in the afternoon to kill....and I certainly killed them without malice or afterthought.
Official Release of "Smoke Through A Keyhole Video"...
I am finally able to release my 31 minute movie for my album "Smoke Through A Keyhole". I also have it released in four parts for those with ADD. I recommend watching this at night when your brain is about to turn to oatmeal. Mmmm...oatmeal brain...good!
