Song 2 of Tip of the Sword begins with a genuine desire to escape the reality of life. Sarah had taken me over, and left nothing for anyone else. The band was really getting pissed off at me. I used to practice and work on new songs and lyrics almost all day every day. But […]

Sarah is the Track 1 of my album Tip of the Sword. When I sat down to write about this song I stared at the screen for a long time before I could begin. It is the first song in a series of 9 songs (there’s really 10 songs but Doctor Psychodelectric and Going Home […]

Get down on your knees and Praise the answer to the greatest question ever asked is in This Song! I’ve written about it before and I’ll say it again. This album came to me in an outpouring of what I can only describe as devine inspiration. […]

It’s not always that I use expletives or pseudo-hidden expletives in the title of a post, but when I was working on the lyrics of this video last night, the same thing happened to me that has always happened to me since I started really hearing my own words when listening to this song. I […]

Authors Note: I guarantee you the lead solos in this song are going to kick your ass!!! Partying. Casual sex. Sexual conquests. Dropping Acid. Smoking Weed. Drinking Shots. Ecstasy. Raves. Clubbing. Fighting in the streets. The life of the “modern day warrior” will catch up to you.

Sex. Sex and sex. Sex sex sex and more sex. Did I mention sex? Here we have our angry young man embroiled finally in the biochemical forest fire of sexual desire and the biological imperitive. This is the whole reason for living. This is life itself, really, when you think about it. This is raw, […]

And in this corner, weighing in at a whopping 130 pounds of lanky wanna-be rock star teenage fury, is…. the invincible child in the last song finally arrived to exact his revenge! Full of angst, full of wrath, full of shit and full of fear. Fear that drives him to look around and question: authority, […]

Abuse! The mantra of youth! OK, let me say up front, clearly and specifically, that I understand and completely have respect for anyone who was truly abused as a child. That’s not what this song is about. This is about the perception that ALL children feel that they were treated badly by their mean old […]

Aaaaannnnnndddddd…. Go! The ride begins. Drifting Away is a song about the slow, steady, and methodical progression of separation that begins the moment that a new human life begins (outside the womb – that is to say, after birth). Separation of the infant from it’s mother, it’s vessel, it’s safety. Separation “from the dream from […]

This song kicks off with a gunshot then assails you with a methodical, rhythmic, grooving attack that has subliminal messages. Well, they’re not totally subliminal. If you listen, you can hear a female in what can only be described as sexual ecstasy in the background. You can’t have a song about Conception and Birth without […]
