this thing is a lot of fun to mess around with

Goatface - Rainbow Jar

2009-08-10T14:42:00.006-04:00

I've gotten a few messages/e-mails recently from various nice folks wanting to know what happened to this album. Basically, I decided to shelve this batch of songs because I just wasn't feeling the direction they were headed in. Stretching outside of the normal guitar/vox thing that I usually do was fun and I enjoyed giving loop based music a shot so some of these will probbaly get reworked into something less murky and more coherent when I get the chance.

Virtual 7" No. 4 - Goatface: "pussy whipped" b/w "take time"

The Lotus Plaza Tribute Album (Vol. 1)

2009-03-30T17:07:00.006-04:00

So I did a track a while back for this project that got started over at http://deerhunter.freeforums.org. The idea was to take the track listing from Lotus Plaza's then forthcoming The Floodlight Collective and create our own songs based on the LP vibe. We got some pretty cool results. Check it out!

We also got some press!

Work on my new full length is going great and it should be done by the end of April(I hope). In the meantime there is a new track up on the myspace.

ah bloggin

New Goatface album Rainbow Jar is still being worked on. So far there are 15 tracks but I will most likely pare it down to 12 or so.

Here is a little vocal-less taste: decatur

Basically just my attempt to make an Atlas Sound album here. :) Been really diggin his music lately so I thought I would try my hand at loop based music and see what happens.

The Hill

2008-12-02T14:58:00.003-05:00

Anyone Else But You - The Moldy Peaches

2008-09-29T00:02:00.005-04:00

here is a moldy peaches cover i did this afternoon:

http://www.mediafire.com/?dnnjryztdjm

it's been stuck in my head ever since i saw that movie juno the other day and i had to get it out somehow

i went with the short version because i think the verses about the konami code and crapping your pants(although great) sort of lessen the sappy impact of the song

and i'm still working on the previously mentioned "new thing" but it's been slow going lately because i've been swamped with school/work things these days

hope to have something more substantial soon

peace

I'm working on a new thing. This is probbaly the album art.

6)iron man bill

Virtual 7" - Goatface: "Gummy" b/w "tex and the indians (alt version)"

2008-08-26T17:04:00.008-04:00

I am totally ripping of Bradford Cox here but the Virtual 7" is just a great idea. These were recorded towards the end of my stay at Sunset.

On another note, yesterday I decided to flesh out the mini album staRts tOMorrow. Currently it's 12 tracks long and clocks in at just under thirty minuets. I'll post it when things are a bit more polished.

It's got some sort of an ambient thing going on.

Mr. Owl

2008-08-12T15:56:00.008-04:00

This is, as far as I can remember, the first song I ever recorded with Alex Cook (aka Dumb or Dead). When we lived in East Point we would get incredibly drunk and record with whatever we had on hand. I think this was something Alex had written beforehand and we decided to put some music to it.

Bloggin'

2008-05-26T18:06:00.011-04:00

So yeah.. I feel kind of dumb doing a blog.. but hey maybe some future internet archaeologist will unearth it from the crumbling Blogger servers and I will get retroactively famous.

Yeah probbaly not.

Anyway here is a song to commemorate the first post. Its a short little instrumental track I recorded today and its about fairies getting down with their bad selves in the forest or something. I dunno!
