    Already Dead Tapes was kind enough to press a small batch of cassettes for Where The Music Goes To Die. They come with a free download card. So if you don't have access to a cassette player you can still listen to the album digitally. With a finely made alternative album cover designed by the brilliant Elise Powell, this high quality cassette is a really neat piece of merchandise. A cool keepsake for you, and you'll get that warm almost-sickening glow that accompanies helping out a struggling artist like myself. Seriously... I could use the money. You don't wanna know. It's bleak..

lyrics

I weep for the mothers
who bury their sons
and I weep for
American trash.

I weep for this fire
blazing in my heart.
It turns all your kind
words to ash.

I weep for you
and the things
you’re holding on to.

I weep for all
there’s no pain
too great or to small

to beckon my love,
I reckon that dove
still has wings.

I weep for the rebirth
of Free Love as AIDS
and I weep for
“bohemian kitsch”

I weep for this patchwork
of failed promises
yeah, I weep for
every single stitch.

I weep for me,
alone in the
land of the free.

I weep for all.
There’s no pain too great
or too small

to warrant my gaze.
It’s abhorrent, these ways
that we hide.

I think, all things considered, the songs I write are much more listenable than the songs I don't write.
