I deleted my last fm account. I have too many flacs and wavs with poor metadata that get screwy with that service. Was actually giving me a lot of anxiety, believe it or not

Thanks Steve. I feel like I'm mostly a death metal guy at this point, but I'll take it!

I switched to light mode on my desktop today. It feels like the dark cloud that has been following me around just dissipated, no joke. Will probably enable nighttime mode pretty soon though lol.. my eyes are already sweating

Bandcamp Friday is coming up, so I'm going to peddle two albums I'm very proud of. I appreciate more than ever that supporting art is a deliberate choice and not everyone has the means to do it. You all have my eternal gratitude for graciously enduring my supplications.

I've said this privately to the guys, and I don't mind saying it here. This is the best music I've ever helped to create. Check out the first single "Years Gone" on ABMA: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3ck...

Immediately after I posted this, I realized I had room for the Mr. Black mini chorus. Leaving that off would be a horrendous crime.

very best work I’ve ever helped to create. Thank you to Griffin and Thomas for the trust and for being so insanely cool and talented. Follow the band on Instagram to stay abreast of the details on this crushing new album. βš”οΈ

It’s been soft announced in a few places, but here’s my statement. I’m beyond thrilled to relay that I have joined Mind Prisoner on bass, backing vocals, songwriting, mixing duties, etc. We have just finished the band’s second full length album, which will be announced in time, and it is among the

Hey, no worries man. I don’t really need it - I have a good support network, a roof over my head, and I’m not starving. If I ever seriously need to ask for help I will label it mutual aid request with a link to my money apps. But I will reply to this with links to buy my music, because why not.

Doing the thing where I check all of my bank accounts and money apps, just wishing for a magical $15 to appear out of nowhere, when I know it isn’t there. The life of a microscopic business owner/musician. Some days are rougher than others for sure.

I’m a black metal artist first and foremost. But at least once a week, without fail, I pull up a Marshall or Fender style amp sim and play grandpa blues licks for an entire morning.

I've been on over 50 unique releases now, counting singles, EPs, albums, and compilations. I've learned a staggering amount since I started releasing music, and my stuff sounds lightyears better now. But it all started with this:

Plexamp is the most elegant media player, and you can't convince me otherwise.
