I'm making a new band. Do you know the music of Head Womb Head? Well my band's sort of like Head Womb Head meets Head Womb Head Womb, with maybe a touch of Head Womb Head Womb Head thrown in there. I was thinking of good names for my band all morning and I finally came up with "Head Womb".
I decided to create this new band as an outlet for fragmentary songs. I really love fragments, and while some song ideas do deserve to be developed into full songs, a lot of other rough ideas are fine how they are. I write tons of these little fragments all the time, and usually, if I record them, my plan is to listen to them and try to see what ideas come for how to develop them. Today I wrote and recorded this one all in about a half hour before heading to the park for Twelfth Night. Listening to it in the park I decided I wanted to just leave it how it is, even if there are lots of errors in it.
The album for this stuff will be called "Songs From The Moon", and this will be the cover-art for the album:
If you can find or create a cheesier picture for the album cover, I'd think about using your idea instead. Unlike the songs of the season, I'm not going to have any kind of schedule with this stuff, I'll just post fragments now and again.
Here's a link to the one from this morning, there aren't really any lyrics except for some of the names of people I've met waiting in line for tickets to the play over the past two weeks and who I'll never see again, and it's called "(Waiting In Line For Tickets To See) Twelfth Night":
Here's a link to the new song of the season in demo form:

If you listen to this, turn down the bass on your speakers or music playing software. I haven't equalized it yet, and at the moment it will sound way too buzzy/boomy if you don't turn the bass way down. This will be fixed later.
I am a few days behind my deadline of finishing all of these songs within the season. Actually, this isn't even finished yet. I more or less finished the backing track, but I haven't recorded the lyrics yet. Just before going to bed now, I quickly recorded me just humming all the vocals over it in one take (very rough) to give you an idea. I wanted to get something up now since I won't be able to work any more on it for about a week.
To me, this song sounds like the end of something. If I had an album, I'd put this song at the end of it; if I had a life, I'd put it at the end of that too.

the coffee stains the carpet the carpet stains the floor the floor is made of maplewood and sycamore and all the streets are named like treestumps cause all the trees were made of wood and all the wood became our houses it's all good it's nice wood da da da da but maybe all the orange sun is is nothing but a tangerine and maybe all the wooden houses were just a dream maybe we were dreaming everything we did maybe we were just a couple high school kids hiding in a make-shift lean-to looking at the morning sky waiting for the tangerine to rise up, rise up da da da da we never wanna fall asleep cause we're never gonna catch a fly we only want an open sea of wide eyes it's hard to keep your eyes wide open when it's so big and cold out and it's dark outside and you don't think you're gonna hold out but maybe i don't know we'll make it through the dark and cold baby don't let me go we'll make it through the rain and snow ((long instrumental)) everybody's dreaming cause momma made the bed of palm leaves and maple trees and spider webs but every single living nightmare caught inside a house of wood and everyone who ever lived there did the best they could

There's a swine flu! See? There was a swine flu. Do you see it? The swine flu happened, don't you know. It happened years ago and we all died. And that's true. A long, long, loooong time ago we all died. But like a ghost wandering through eternity still chained to the idea of a body, here we think we are, but we died, and that's the truth, and everything is true. The swine flu came and killed us, and it hurt. And of course it was engineered by bad people, because we can dream of bad people, so they're true, and one day we got a cough and maybe we didn't even think much of it at first, but then, it was the swine flu and we coughed a lot more and we died and we hurt and it was very bad and now we're all dead and this is true and it's been true for a very, very long time. It hurt very, very much and we were very sad and we felt very sorry for ourselves. -JJF
And an excerpt from a related article by Icke from this morning:
We have had a ‘Budget’ this week in Britain, the day when the guy officially in charge of the nation’s finances, emphasis on ‘officially’, reveals as little as he can get away with and tells us what he intends to do about it.
It was a classic of its kind and made some unwelcome history to boot. These two facts are fundamentally related in that the history came with the announcement by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Alistair Darling, that he intends to trigger a record UK government debt; the classic bit was his prediction that an economic recovery would begin at the end of 2009.
In the United States, Barack Obama, songster for the Wall Street cabal, has talked of ‘hopeful signs’ that the economy is improving. It’s all a con. They are having you on.
I have been saying since October/November that the engineered economic collapse is planned to have three major phases: (1) To crash the economy (done); (2) To have governments borrow extraordinary amounts of money from the very banking and financial cartel that the same ‘money’ is being spent to ‘bail out’ (being done); (3) To crash the economy still further when government options are exhausted and leave them with no way of responding (waiting to be done).
Then they step forward to 'save us' with a globally centralised banking dictatorship based on a World Central Bank.
On Tuesday April 14th, Stephen posted "Bird Nest Blog Day #1", which contained the following text: The bird has been sitting here all day. I know there are two eggs under it cause it flew away from the box briefly, and I looked. I may have scared it with loud music or motion, but Antawan and I have both walked up close to the window, and it doesn't seem to be bothered. I don't know what kind of bird this is. Do you?
It also contained this picture:
The following day, Wednesday April 15th, Stephen posted "Bird Nest Blog Day #2", which contained the following text: The bird still keeps its eggs warm through this fairly miserable weather. Today, like yesterday, the temperature is in the mid 50's and it's supposed to rain all day. Luckily, things are looking up for the bird, because the next few days are supposed to be in the 60's and sunny!
