No one is gonna let me put 12 string acoustics and vibraphones on their Lenderman-core records so I'll do it on my own records

People want to retread Slowcore and call it Bootsgaze meanwhile Billy Sherrill was cranking out walls of sound Countrypolitan masterpieces with the drippiest, tremolo heavy guitars 60 years ago

I wish I was James Caan

Art direction

This is my favorite color

Should I go full Deliver Me From Nowhere? Buy an 80s Camaro and a portastudio?

Horn-laden, blue-eyed soul with razor-sharp Chapel Hill guitars

I just "I want to do the Archers of Loaf version of Chicago" to myself in the car

Sylvie likes when the Sheraton comes out

Just trying to make records for your dad to play on the garage stereo

"It's raining blood, hallelujah! it's raining blood, amen!" "That's my favorite Slayer song" "No, that's Slay-HER!"

It's stupid to be choked up listening to Hollywood Nights by Bob Seger but here I am

Everybody else is just playing the song but Bruce is strangling out the most fucked up riffs he can think of off to the side tidal.com/track/179997...

Close enough, welcome back 2003 invasion of Iraq

Alternately/simultaneously trying to invoke the aura of ripping darts with the windows down in a big block Buick driving down the highway at one in the morning in rural Wisconsin listening to Dire Straits 8 tracks

Trying to turn us into sort of a non-ska version of The Beat with kind of an 80s Dylan thing going

New EP cover art proof

We are still looking for a drummer

I had some really interesting gear back in 2018 - I was super into glitchy, unpredictable pedals but now I just have a danelectro back talk pedal to satisfy that itch for a little bit of chaos

Been working on something and the only pedal I have been using is this Ibanez Twin Cam chorus which is a pedal I had several years ago and sold off and then have not been able to find for a reasonable price again until recently

I just love going on ultimate guitar dot com and learning 70s rock songs

The rhythm guitar parts in KISS songs are bizarrely more complicated than you would think

If these kids really wanted to do y2k nostalgia they should be getting into the Blue Man Group

Doing some demos today with Sylvie

The only functioning definition of Country Music as a genre is when Kris Kristofferson said "if it sounds country, man, that's what it is. It's a country song" at the beginning of "Me and Bobby McGee"

Both Bad Bunny and American Football are música urbana

Got an acoustic and suddenly I'm learning James Taylor songs, should I grow in my unibrow?

I guess a good thing about everyone being major flakes in LA is that if you actually get someone to show up for a jam they're pretty much in the band from then on

I've been playing bass a lot lately and I feel like this everytime youtu.be/YAlDbP4tdqc?...

The most playable acoustic guitar I have ever held

Getting show offers, still need a permanent drummer

Is there a Mod Rock/Power Pop band called The Sansabelts? Cause there should be

Brit Pop Steve Austin says if yr madferit gimme a hell yeah!

To the @ratboysband.bsky.social Army I am pledged

We're doing kind of a Big Band/Big Music/Big Beat thing, Ellington meets The Waterboys meets The Prodigy

High torque jangle

Rickenbacker 660/12 in Maple Glo be my valentine

Sold a keyboard and bought an acoustic, it's over folks, pack it in, I'm Country Dylan now

Just type it out and delete it

Fun, vintage thump box

Neo jangle pop band challenge no "boys don't cry riffs" level impossible

I might write and demo a whole record next month, I need a challenge to get myself in gear, should I do a 90s Swedish Hardcore record or an early 80s Urban Cowboy thing?

I spent a lot of time with that Aimee Mann record recently, highly recommend it, "Frankenstein" is such a great song

Got a nice playing 1975 copy of Moanin'

If you liked my canceling Spotify tweet you should go listen to our music on a better streaming app like Tidal tidal.com/artist/41422...

Finally canceled spotify, probably not putting any new music on there either

Goodbye you awful blue

I'm just saying, this bass, a GK stack and some zubaz pants and safety glasses would go hard as fuck on stage

Say a prayer to Art Blakey that we find a new drummer soon
