Today we released a new song called "Geiger Counter."

Give it a listen on the biggest speakers you've got, and download it...

RIGHT HERE.

It premiered over at Indie Shuffle only a moment ago.

This is the first in an ongoing series of new tracks I'm doing with my dear friend and longtime collaborator Brian Konicek (from Mason Proper). Not coincidentally, we are also working together on finally creating the Absofacto live show one or two or ten of you have suggested, requested... or assumed already existed!

-

You were shaking like a leaf 
clinging hard to a sleepy branch 
and holding on for your dear life. 

Well if you fall, then you'll fall in 
and you'll spiral randomly 
no way to know where you're gonna land. 

and all the plans that you have made 
they are a million miles away 
waiting for you to come home 

and there's no breeze i've ever felt, 
no blow that I've been dealt, 
that could carry us back again 

but you can't stay here 
any more than I can 
any more than a hot minute or a heavy second or a half-life 
the cracked static of a geiger counter 

You remind me of a place 
the kind of world beneath your feet 
that disappears when you go there 

then you're trapped under the street 
drinking light through a sewer grate 
like you were born on a leap year 

but you can't stay here 
any more than I can 
any more than a hot minute or a heavy second or a half-life 
the cracked static of a geiger counter 

it's getting louder and louder 

but you can't stay here 
any more than I can 
any more than a hot minute or a heavy second or a half-life 
the cracked static of a geiger counter 

when you wilt I will love you 
and we will mix when you crumble 
we'll disintegrate and blow away.

I just launched my first ever Kickstarter project, raising the funds to finally release Sinking Islands on CD and high-quality vinyl!

For more details on the project and the rewards for contributing, or to pledge some funds to make it happen, please visit my Kickstarter page.

Update: It crossed 100%! Now any extra funds raised in the last few days will go to expanding the artwork, design, and hopefully being able to including things like a lyrics booklet. Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far!

Today I released a new song called "On a Ladder Leading Nowhere."

You can listen and download it...

RIGHT HERE.

My teeth are chattering. 
No speck of oxygen in my lung. 
The air is thin. 
Around me is all infinity.

They circle the ground and stare at the sky for my fall. 
No one else was dumb enough to climb it at all. 
I follow the smoke, dropping crumbs as a joke 
but they're not really a joke

Does it matter? 
Does it matter at all?

They only built the start... 
forgot the counterpart, there's no end. 
Too late to turn around... 
I'd never reach the ground

May as well keep pulling rungs 
and follow lines past the sun, 
on to other stars, 
and maybe I'll pass through one. 
Till the day will come when I can't move a thumb, 
following the trail of crumbs.

Does it matter? 
Does it matter at all? 
Nah.
