This shit had me cackling so hard when I found it. This was another one of the 20 plus instrumentals I made back in 2006ish right before we made On Letting Go.
As you can immediately tell this is where I originally placed the vocoder piece that eventually landed on "All Your Friends A...

I have been digging through old emails trying to find some of the original song ideas that we would send back and forth to work on. I stumbled on an email chain from Colin titled "grudge". It contained an mp3 for an instrumental he had made and a message from Colin saying "if we jam on this and a...

This month's cover is a sick jam from the amazing band Cursive <3
Their record 'The Ugly Organ' was especially inspiring to all of us and getting to do our own version of this song gave me all the feels. If you don't know this band : get on that.
Hope you all dig ...

Here is episode 12! It is technically 13 as far as episodes released but it was recorded prior to the last one we put out so it's title shall be 012 for the archive.

Some of you probably saw on my socials that we had to say goodbye to Jimi the other night. Honestly it’s so difficult to even write anything at the moment. The pain is still so sharp it cuts my breath short and I have to pause between each word I type.
We are shattered. We will be ok b...

This is technically Creature Cast 12 as far as releases go but the one we will release next week was recorded before this one so that's why this is getting called 13. It's also spookier sounding and since this episode is very Halloween themed we are bumping it to today. It's kinda like the 13th f...

In this episode we bullshit for a while and then finally find our way to some tales of our second band house, a golden era of the band in which we would live together for almost 4 years, living every band's dream and every normie's nightmare.
It's a great time and then towards the end...

Anyways, here's a little lesson and information about the opening guitar lead for the song Living Together. I discuss Unison bends and then eventually get around to showing you how to play the riff. It's crazy how different 9 gauge strings feel after playing 11's for the past 20 years. It's way e...

This month's cover is 'Obstacle 1' by Interpol !
I was obsessed with Turn On The Bright Lights around the time our band formed. This song especially played a huge role in influencing me to write the music for 'In Fear and Faith'. Probably not all that apparent in our version ...
