For the first day of winter, we dropped a live record. Side A is live in studio, Side B is from a show this summer. Name your price on Bandcamp, also on Ampwall. All proceeds go to PIRC Oregon.

We're not posting a Spotify Wrapped. We haven't even looked at it. The numbers aren't that impressive & we don't need to do free adds for an awful company. If you want to suppport, buy a tape, CD, or download on Bandcamp Friday (today, 12/5). Another awful company, but maybe slightly less so?

Decided to take some live multitracks and give them a little mix for a holiday release. If you like our records, you're for a treat, because we have tendency to change songs quite a bit for shows. Will this actually get done? Find out in a few weeks time.

We hopped in this show kinda late in the game, it's a week from today (11/20). Portland, come get sad with us.

For no reason other than we feel like it, have a download of our most recent ambient work, Conjurings Vol. 4. Go to bandcamp.com/yum and plug in a code. Sign in if you have an account. It's not required, but you show up as a supporter if you do. Oh yeah: Fuck ICE & Fuck Trump. Portland forever.

We're playing a show tonight 9/3/25) at Lollipop Shoppe with Violetera and Merwulf. See you there?

Y'all The ICE building in Portland is painting a line in front of their building But they don't even know how to spell government

Conjurings Vol. 4 will be released on Sept. 5, 2025. Five instrumental gothic kosmische classics. Head to Bandcamp now to pre-order on cassette and digital, and hear "A Sliver of Star." The album will also be available on streaming services if that's your thing (but we'd prefer you just buy it).

there's no loneliness epidemic you just need to use the internet to meet other musicians in your region and other regions and then after you've become online friends with like 3 of them you should book a show together as a full bill and then you can meet irl and hang out and stuff.

Today, from midnight to midnight Pacific Time, we’re donating 100% of our proceeds to support artists impacted by the California Wildfires. Here's a list of releases that are also donating to the cause. daily.bandcamp.com/features/a-l...

We're on this podcast, along with some friends and some bands new to us. Thanks for the support!

Ezri once told Worf, "The Klingon Empire is dying, and I think it deserves to die … I know this sounds harsh, but the truth is you have been willing to accept a government that you know is corrupt. Gowron is just the latest example." Later that day, Worf killed Gowron. This is a post about DS9.

Great new song from @vaguelanes.com

Intelligence officials are starting to leak to me now too. Here’s a memo Defense Intelligence Agency personnel received instructing them to suspend observances including: - Holocaust Remembrance Day - MLK Day - Juneteenth

Anyone we know use Ampwall? Seems like an intriguing alternative to Bandcamp/Spotify. Having an alternative place to put our energy is tempting, especially if it's as community oriented as they say. We grow weary of the current state of techno capitalist hell.

Years ago, the Valley Fire burned a large part of the small town where I (Jim) grew up. Luckily, my family's home didn't burn. When visiting, I was struck by the silence that replaced the sound of the wind in the trees that was always there. I wrote this song about it. youtu.be/yhDE9z1LAU8?...

Well, if we're going to ban an app because the algorithm can influence public opinion, users are profiled and personal information is collected, we need to deploy the National Guard to Menlo Park right now.

David Lynch's work was a massive influence and inspiration to us, so it makes sense to say something here. His imagery and his ear for sound were so unique. So few filmmakers have been able to really capture what it feels like to be in a dream. He will be missed, but his artistic legacy is eternal.

These people are your enemies
