Sam put a lot of work into the mixing of this. The songs are much more solid than in their original incarnations. Thanks, Sam! Glennny painted the album cover! Thanks, Glen! Can't wait till the mastering's done! Check out BSS's new album "Secret Places Hidden Spaces", out now for preview release on ...

Everything serves you as the artist and your vision. Can you explain what this is? Like others have said, it's a project and and all projects are are constrained by the iron triangle of budget, time and scope. And scope isn't limited to the audio - there's marketing, promo, distro, publishing, perfo...

If we're talking music charities, I have one. My friend is the founder MusiConnects , whose mission is "To model and teach self-expression, peer leadership and community development through the transformative power of chamber music." They embed musicians at schools in underprivileged communities in ...

Here I am playing Is This Real Life for SF Live 2020.

I became friends with Lunkhead in real life through his at-the-time roommate's girlfriend I was friends with back in Boston. I guested on a BSS track or two some years later without ever knowing what SF even was. Years later (2019) I finally started playing more regularly with BSS and even started s...

Here's my version of Hot Pink Halo's How It Comes Apart.



And the mp3 --

Welcome. What is 50/90?

I just posted mine. I admit it's a pretty big departure from the original.

The Trump administration, the Trump campaign and, most importantly, the GOP at large, together are currently attempting a bloodless coup with regards to this not-close presidential election. (And it wasn't close, by popular vote or by Electoral College standards). They consider Democrats to have no ...

I look forward to seeing how these differ from the NE originals. A couple of those I liked a lot.

Why not

This Smithsonian interview with EVH from 2015 has a bunch of gold nuggets. Talks about moving to the US, building his Frankenstein guitar, how he came up with tapping and more.

I uploaded a vid of a six-song set last night, including a solo version of a BSS number.

Much fumbling to get to a <2gb file and audio that wouldn't distort on export. Fun!

With one more vote, we would've created a three-way tie.

Congrats, PC and TH.

I Am Very Busy Berkeley Social Scene It’s good that you called after these last weeks, but I’ve been doing fine You know that I’ve got a lot going on - uhuh It’s not like I’ve been waiting for you to turn up here one night I guess that I can say I moved on - uhuh I’m very busy without you, without ...

Bss: .....After reading your explanation, I think my issue is I just couldn’t hear the words consecutively enough to get the whole story. Rear window is actually the only Hitchcock I’ve seen, so I feel like I would have picked up on it, even if id had time to read the lyrics. .... Wow, I thought it...

In response to the podcast, the BSS song actually started off with Ken making a version of the drum track. I went and wrote all the music parts on the guitar, to the drums. Ken wrote lyrics, Geech revised them a lot. Geech sings lead and his kids' piano teacher if the guest vocalist in the bridge. ...

Unsurprisingly, Sober, you ran away with it. A great song. Looking forward to more at this level from you.

Ken, the time for kissing Glenn's ass was before we were eliminated from NE, not after!

Ken's Super Duper Band 'n Stuff :That said, I want your vocal melodies to have a some more complexity and variety to them. ...Tom Petty also has fairly simple repetitive melodies, not too complex lyrics, and yet his songs are classics. I'm not saying I'm at his level, but that maybe it is okay to w...

Shutdown Reviews Brown Word and the Big Whine : The song itself is sort of grunge-by-numbers, except for the pirate-sounding middle bit. Like Mudhoney’s kid brother? The weirded vocals really put me off. They sound a little like Jello Biafra meets the chipmunks? Chthonic Chthock : Should I be doing ...
