Permeate the Membrane!

Cover for Permeate the Membrane! has been finalized (for now).





















I decided to go for something a little different. More minimalist.. and yeah.

I'm lazy.

Today

I'm going to try and get some work done today on Sad Looking Rocket.

Maybe even try to get it up by the end of the week.

My weeks end on Saturday.

Probably not, but who knows?

Cover Arts

Here is the art for the forthcoming Crush EP:






















Don't Ask me Why I liked it, I just do.

And, on a semi-unrelated note, I also made this for an album that I have no name for and may never actually use this cover for:





















It will not be the cover for Permeate the Membrane! because, idk, doesn't feel right for that album. Maybe I will save it for the full length cause i need something to catch the eye, something strange and alluring.

Probably not. It will probably be the cover to another shitty EP I will put out eventually.

Here is Sad Looking Rocket again:

Plans for the future.

So I semi-accidentally made a new album cover, which I will post here soon enough.

The title is Crush. Idk why, i looked at the cover art and it felt right.

It will be the EP I make after Sad Looking Rockets. I'm not sure if it will be after Permeate the Membrane! though, as that album art is still being hammered out.

As are the songs.

But! Nonetheless, keep aware of a new EP titled Crush to be dropping from me fairly soon, after Sad Looking Rockets and possibly Permeate the Membrane!, depending on how quickly I can get this shit done.

SLR EP Tracklist

Sad Looking Rocket my upcoming EP has a working tracklist right now... and it is rather long for an EP, but it doesn't have the cohesiveness of an LP, so I'm calling it an EP because it feels like it is just a collection of demos and in-progress songs, not final polished takes.

(for now) The Tracklist:

Move You (Intro)
Compromising
A Little Perspective
Fantastic Machines
SkullCrusher (v2)
Glory (v2)
Waiting for Malachai (v2)
Between Our Chemistry (v2)
Lavender's Blue
The Gnome
Skulls
3rd Planet

It is a mix of newer songs, which I might have a few others depending on how it all works out, and some reworkings of songs off of Amateur Fashion. Then there is something new that I never really done before: covers. I'm adding some covers for the fuck of it.

We were showing my daughter videos of nursery rhymes on youtube, and Lavender's Blue came up, and it has a really sweet, lovely melody and I wanted to learn it for her. I'm not sure if she likes it, but I do, so, you know, she can stuff it. Then I wanted to learn another song that has a nice nursery rhyme like melody, but that might also introduce her to a wider range of music that classic nursery rhymes won't expose her to, so I'm trying to learn the Gnome by Pink Floyd (well, mostly Syd Barrett, that era of Floyd should just be called Barrett and Friends), which is unexpectedly hard song to learn. Strange chord progressions in some parts. I had previously learned Skulls and 3rd Planet, which are also simple songs with catchy melodies and fit well within my unintentionally set parameters. So, there are the four songs I'm going to try to play for Rhyleigh whenever she can sit still enough and watch me play.

And that concludes the exceedingly long tracklist for Sad Looking Rocket. An EP in three parts, essentially.
