Echoes of Conscience by Maledictis Maledictis is a Milwaukee-based chamber-rock project that blends strings, brass, woodwinds, percussion, piano, choir and organ with alternative rock arrangements and symphonic sensibilities.

Echoes of Conscience, by Maledictis 15 track album

If you want to know what I've been working on for the last 2+ years...

I spent the entire day thinking about Stephen Sondheim.

"Let's get crazy." - Bob Ross

"We are the music makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;—
World-losers and world-forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world for ever, it seems."

- Arthur O'Shaughnessy

The quote of the evening: “MALEDICTIS; for fans of… dot dot dot.” 🤣

It’s tricky because we haven’t had the “birds and the bees” convo yet, but obviously adoration, companionship, and G-rated affection is age appropriate. Hmmm 🤔

So far we watched Pixar’s Luca. I feel like it’s at least #PrideAdjacent because it’s all symbolism.

What films do you recommend for small kids that focus on #pride? I noticed they all seem to be rated R or TV-MA. My kids are grade schoolers, so I need PG.

Nice photography!

What is your favorite type of shark and why is it the hammerhead and why are you thinking of gummies now?

If the plants are happy, then I’m happy. 🌧️ ☔️

Dear CD people,
Where do *YOU* buy CDs?

I’ve been pretty interested in Eos, as of late.

Shaka, when the walls fell!

As a teen with ADHD, I struggled to read—until I found “Greek Mythology” by Richard Stoneman. Its short entries let me read on my own terms. It was the first book that showed me I could enjoy reading. I just needed a format that matched how my brain works.

Give your daughters metal band t-shirts covered in skulls to earn “cool dad” points.

@geologyrecords.bsky.social dug out my dad’s tape deck. It’s a #VectorResearch so nothing too fancy… but crazy that it works because it’s older than I am and I don’t fully work.

My mother swiped a bunch of these paper coasters from the Polynesian back in the 80s. I inherited them, not really knowing their purpose until now: to take a pic and respond to your post. #nostalgia

You are forgiven.
Your penance is to hire a maid and/or tip them a little extra.

Share with me a confession, and I'll suggest a penance.

I bought this #cassette tape of Wynton Marsalis’ “Marsalis Standard Time—Volume I” for $1.99

Jazz is over my head, but I can pretend to understand it while I drink my morning coffee.

A 12” record plays on a turntable with the album art displayed next to it. Chicago’s greatest hits cover features the band attempting to paint their logo on a building, with an angry woman and police officer looking out a window. The band is struggling to stay on the hanging platform.

My dad had this CD in the 80s but I’ve never owned or listened to the vinyl until today.

Happy first day of April!
Here is a very serious recording a friend and I did 20ish years ago.

I’m guilty of moving the goal post a lot.
