Psychedellic, Venus In, Anti, Fake, Etc.


City Center "Fur"
Sweet disgust, is it hot enough? You're wearing fur in August
Oh but you, you really don't mind
Scan your heart for the darkest part. Send a letter to the congregation. You, you really don't mind
Backwards mask, get your autograph and your suicide pact
You, you really don't mind
Where's the rest of the trouble-makers now?
Wearing fur in August, they say "We really don't mind."

Everything Upturned



For those unaware, or anyone who wondered, Ryan is back in school working on pre-med and someday soon will be a doctor, fixing up the bones and noses of all the hurt children and child-like humans. This is miraculous in almost every way, except the way where it doesn't leave a lot of time to dick around on music with me. The past two years of delay and bit-crushing have been stellar, and right in time for our master collaboration, Redeemer to finally find it's way into the world, the union changes into something new, different and now (again).

Above is a complete video of what will most likely be our last set together for some time. It was the kick-off show of the tour Swimsuit, City Center & Secret Twins recently came home from. The next day on for the rest of the month City Center was just me (again) and different every night. End of an era blues, for sure. Big thanks to Scott Davidson over on Leroy Street for the video.

Forward ever, backward never.

Set list: Thaw / Teardrop Children / In the Water / Cookies / After Hours / Modern Love
