Best Of Me

Today was a very productive day for many lyrics.   Over the last little bit, I’ve been chipping away at some stuff that was previously shared here. It’s all part of a seasonal release idea, which is something that was actually ripped off from Weezer. There are a few differences that I’ll reveal once things … Read more

Dreaming Of Foxes (second draft)

Just smoothed out the rough edges of what I already had and thought I’d share.   verse   I’m dreaming of foxes Been riding in an ambulance Don’t know where I’m going There’s nothing left to see It’s only my disease   verse   I’m dreaming of foxes Been riding in an ambulance Don’t know … Read more

Dreaming Of Foxes

Another work in progress here.   It all started out with a chorus idea that had me stuck yesterday. In my head, it was more of an up tempo thing when originally written. For some reason, my mind drifted to it again during breakfast this morning and something clicked. I’ll often get random drum patterns … Read more

Black Squirrel (second draft)

I worked on Black Squirrel pretty extensively again this morning.   In the spirit of yesterday’s post, I thought I’d continue to document my work in progress.

Frontlines

Another new thing here that has nothing to do with the upcoming Diurnal release on September 30.   I was doing some work on the seasonal release concept this morning and just finished this. Initially in contention for autumn, it really doesn’t fit the theme I’m going for now. Still, the overall vibe and writing … Read more

Sunlight Brings Release Of Diurnal on September 30

After nearly four years, a new dawn is bringing monsters once sheltered by darkness into the light.   While shadows embrace long buried truths, morning offers no such refuge. Mistakes and demons once lurking in the night must now be confronted in plain sight. Such is the conceit for Diurnal, a new group of 12 … Read more
