On Saturday we’ll be joined onstage by @markbolohan.bsky.social and @swampratsmusic.bsky.social for birthday show 2.0, this time at the Regal Beagle.

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

In Hunt for the Eternal Vibe, by Lantern Lens 12 track album

o, bandcamp friday! it's been just over a month since i put out my cool new album In Hunt for the Eternal Vibe. now is as good of a time as any to spin it and contemplate existential dread or whatever lanternlens.bandcamp.com/album/in-hun...

Izak Folk rock for artsy, sensitive types.

So, it has come to my attention that it is, yet again, Bandcamp Friday. I’ll let you in on a secret—we’re endearing to convert our basement into a humble home recording studio. You could help us reach that goal by buying some of our music! And then we can afford to put out MORE music, MORE often!

o yeah this thing is now up on streamings if u want to stream it on your streaming service 🔥👍✨

is it normal to want to bash my head with a brick after any social interaction or can this be fixed

AAA my new album is now OUT on bandcamp! it should be coming to streaming in the next few days. give it a nice little listen! ❤️🌾🍂🕊️

i'm releasing an album... TOMORROW!? 🤯😳 and it's... one of the best things i've ever written so far?!?!? 😱😱😱🤯🤯 WHAT

i think mainly live. i was at a show a couple nights ago and was thinking like "damn, there's nothing that really matches that feeling or energy"

i miss playing in a band

guess what i'm STILL putting out a new album on the 27th, which is now exactly a week away! aaaaa!

abolish ice

slanting tree in front of a river with text that reads: new album "in hunt for the eternal vibe" out on june 27th

snowy mountain scene with a town and dry field in front of it on a sunny day

trees with autumn-colored leaved under a cloudy, blue sky

pear tree blossoming in a backyard with a cloud enrobed mountain in the background

text reading “I think the purpose of life is to find happiness, to find those few true, enveloping pockets of sunshine that keeps your core warm. It is, quite plainly, essential. Happiness is the substance that melts into your blood and turns it golden. It is the spirit that paints your vision a lively shade and douses your limbs with electricity. You drink it and are overcome with a fullness as it fizzes little ecstasies. Happiness is the one truth worth following. Happiness is the only god of many crawling this earth that is worth praise.”

FUN ALBUM ANNOUNCEMENT POST! In Hunt for the Eternal Vibe will be published on June 27th! While maybe not actually, spiritually this is the first Lantern Lens album to me as it represents what I want my 'main' music to sound like. I'm very proud of what I recorded here and I'm excited to release it!

Considering the continued criminalization of masks, rampant spread of covid & other viruses (amidst erosion of vaccine access), dangerous AQI from wildfires, increasing state surveillance, & persistent use of chemical weapons by cops, now is a great time to commit to masking again if you've stopped.

i need to get more cryptic with my lyrics. i need a tangle of riddles

Wilmer only found out his son had been detained after receiving a phone call on March 15 from his nephew, Luis, who lives with them. That morning was their last time together; they had gone around the corner to do their laundry. Later that day, Wilmer said that his son met with a friend to get help with some errands at the American Red Cross. He learned this from Luis, who looked at the situation from inside the apartment: when his son was on his way back, just steps from his home when ICE agents stopped him. “The officers grabbed him and two other boys right at the entrance to our building. One said, ‘No, he’s not the one,’ like they were looking for someone else. But the other said, ‘Take him anyway.'” That moment marked the beginning of Wilmer’s search for answers — answers he’s still waiting for.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.

An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."

The other said, "Take him anyway."

So they did.

oh its been over a month since this album came out and i forgot to mention i compiled a cute little lyric booklet that's included with the bandcamp download LOL. this is for all the cool word readers out there that would like to keep up with my strange ramblings

personally i don't think what he did is so easily forgiven and there are plenty of other good bands out there to support, especially monetarily
