Oh and for a first-time bassist, you’re great. It’s a really satisfying instrument when you learn to appreciate how essential low-end is to a band’s sound and style. Not something I think a lot of people know who don’t play. Bass fucking rules.

It was easy enough in this case, but thanks very much. I've been playing guitar for 35 years, and been playing with these guys in various configurations for 20 or so, so we all know each other's styles and needs. We're in another group together too (where I play regular guitar), but in this one he drives the bus. And what a great driver he is. I love backing him up and playing the heavy riffs under his freakouts.

That one is the oldest one. And it's just him, as are most of the recorded works. Matt and I are only on the newest recording, which is up on Bandcamp. Only two pieces but one of them is pretty long. There are more, but it was hard to form a cohesive album out of them. Jason's solo recordings are all over the map. He's a very multi-dimensional musician. cometsovcupid.bandcamp.com/album/scythian-ep |

When Jason moved back to Minneapolis from Fargo a while ago, we decided he should also be in Thunderbolt Pagoda. 5 people is a lot of people in a band, but it sounds pretty big with him in the mix. This is us at the same venue a year prior for the same event. I might have posted it here last year. Two songs from the set.

soooo... it streamed beautifully on my ipad this evening and it was really great.
but now with everything properly loaded i did hear some horrible glitches roughly between 15:30 and 18:00. so yeah, needs a reupload. now not to seed any discord, ha ha ha, but from all i really like the most the sound of that fat growling bass— very very good and a ton of fun. i’m atypical in that i generally like bass and percussion more than i do guitar, and for me it’s no exception here, except more. the guitar is great of course, but what makes me feel like the dinosaurs are roaming earth again here is that heavy heavy bass. |

^ Like that... “dinosaurs roaming the earth.” Mos def.
I too have an atypical affection for bass and percussion. I even enjoy hearing a bass guitar carry a song, or be played like a guitar, a la Three-Mile Pilot. That is, if it’s done right. Haven’t listened to the Thunderbolt Pagoda one yet. Will. |

Bass clarinet is definitely Superior to the useless and annoying licorice stick.

more like christopher guest and rob reiner's idea? but yeah, i don't know why, i really like it. i'm going to slow it down more and add more delay trails. i usually put days of effort into my vids but this is one of my favorite things.

more new stuff!
a probable track for an upcoming dvd and 10" collaboration with agreeable goldmines under new moniker VERSIONING. more synapsids tapes and cds on the sea tone bandcamp page. new tape, "therapsids", coming out just as soon as i can order some cassettes. a silly 8 bit filtered sea tone retrospective in the works. this might not come to pass if it doesn't turn out the way i want. ambient show in a couple weeks in COLUMBUS OHIO. then it's on to work on concepts for the first VERSIONING album. i want to have a setup focused toward live playing, where my recorded songs are easy enough to replicate live while allowing for improvisation and improvising songs. i'm going to try out some beats and synthesized vocals, and dabble with remixing over a capella tracks. |

My Guitar/Drum noise rock duo is putting out our first record via Cuchabata Records (Montreal), and here's our first single.. we're called Fred Crackling (I'm sure everyone here gets that reference).

Were you or any of the members ever fans of In the Woods? Just mentioning it cos they're not a band I'd immediately associate with what you do but I can hear something of their overall sound and, I dunno, mood in this one. You're obviously not making black metal but, arguably, neither were they. |

I'm only a little bit familiar with them, only ever having had one of their records for a short time. I do like them, but I can't claim them as much of an influence. Good band though! Thanks for listening.

Outtakes/ recordings from the same period as the newest album. Not a cohesive "album" per se, but a full length's worth of good material nonetheless. Makes a decent companion piece to the album proper...
