Another Guy
UPBEAT, WHIMSICAL ROCK & ROLL: A sonic throwback to Merseybeat, this song gleefully tackles the common crisis of desperately persuading a pal to take off the rose-tinted glasses and stop the inevitable. Two and a half minutes of jam-packed melody, radical left turns, plot twists, brutal honesty and authentic 60s-ness!more

Journey Of Doubt
The beginning of the 'Octa' pseudo-album subdivision. I use the term classical loosely as it's half-classical half-just-weird. Also doubles as "The Ruin of Doriath" although originally conceived as a wholly original composition of mine. To round out The Silmarillion series. Mood fits well enough. This is so new it hasn't been through the feature.fm scanner to find the other links nor is it on Bandcamp quite yetmore

For Me, But Not For Thee
Not picking sides at all, but more a statement that the MSM is in a pickle where it has to present a story where the dots connect in a universe that might not use cause and effect at-all. And Joe Q Public has to figure it out. Or do they? A tune about the Post-Truth Era. For the Slaps Peeps: this is sort of a funny medley about politics and the MSM: hail to the chief, star spangled banner, Ukraine anthem, Russia Anthem, China Anthem, wait till the sun shines Nellie for the stock market's anthem all mixed in there.more
