Experiment: JRG Music Factory -

A while back I was showing my fiancee (Hi Bekka!) a bunch of unfinished things I had laying around and I cued this jam up. I had intended it to be the “b-side” of “Make it Go (Beep Beep)”, but I never really got around to finishing it, so it never got posted. Anyway, the [...]

Even though scores of sequels and imitations have tried to sour me on it, Halloween is still my favorite movie. A lot of that has to do with the score: it’s simple, repetitive and completely effective.  Hear it once and it will start playing in your head anytime a situation presents an unknown quantity of [...]

Things have been quiet around here. It’s partly because I moved and all my stuff was in disarray and partly because I hate the fucking summer and get absolutely nothing done when it’s hot outside. It’s still a little too warm outside for me, but I finished moving/unpacking, so there should be a little more [...]

Experiment -

Like a lot of songs I write, the demo for this one consists of two acoustic guitars and nothing more (well, actually, I think a third guitar shows up somewhere, but that’s not the point). I had planned on using that demo to start another “Faust”-like album, but it felt too much like repeating myself, [...]

And This is Where the Fudge is Made

Back on the old All Hallow’s Evil website, I used to do a write up for each album that described how it was recorded and so forth. Since my recording process has pretty much stabilized since the days of making songs using Pro Tools Free and the Sound Blaster Live! card in the family computer, [...]

Experiment -

Leading up to Under Dead Stars, I cut demos for about 19 songs, most of which deserve to stay in the demo stage. Amongst that wreckage was the main riff for this track, which I decided to resurrect in the hopes that I will now stop playing it when I’m trying to come up with [...]

Cover -

  This is a quick and dirty arrangement/recording, but I suppose that’s what makes it a fitting tribute. Click to listen, right click to save. “Pomp and Circumstance (Funeral March)” I promise that the next thing I post will be a fully produced, original All Hallow’s Evil song.

Black Sabbath -

This entry is a little wordy, so I’m going to break format and put the mp3 first. Click to listen, right click to save: Time Machine Truth be told, I find the idea of mourning celebrity deaths to be a little silly. I suppose it’s great that some people are empathetic enough to mourn the [...]

  Year recorded: 2010 Tim Burton’s Batman was a pretty big moment in my life. It feels a little strange for me to refer to a massively marketed summer blockbuster as a big moment in my life, but anything else would be a lie. But I was 6 at the time, so what more would [...]

Acoustic 2: Faustian Suite

The demo for This Faustian Flesh consists of three acoustic guitar tracks and a click, so the idea of trying to rearrange it back to an all acoustic format has been floating around for a while. I finally gave it a shot one day and found out that sometimes you really can’t go home again. [...]
