My Psyche Had An Itch


'My Psyche Had An Itch.mp3 6.11 MB

This is a song off of the currently unreleased full-length of Reckless Reclusion.
Improvised and recorded as a first take and only-take on August 14th 2008 outside on the front porch.. There were two other songs from this night of 'improvised weirdness'.. "Demon Problems" and "Bite My Tongue" which will probably someday be released with a tractor trailer truck full of b-sides but are otherwise just muck.
Words off the tip of the tongue breathe easier for me and I guess it's like the release of a subconscious buildup of the mental mutiny.


The more I think about 'releasing' music the more stressed and annoyed I get.. I hardly ever want to sell it, I just want to make it, and keep making more and hope others will experience the noise... I can't market... and I don't want to market. With that being said, I will shortly probably just release the entire album for free like many of the past ones have already been done. I can't buy my way into the 'industry' and don't want to become one of those zany air-headed hucksters that can 'make it' in or are apart of the industry! I guess if people dig it and want to support it they can do so, otherwise, I'll just keep talking into caves.
Plus, there are so many hours of music sitting on my harddrive awaiting direction.
This Reckless Reclusion is some sort of bothered back-mucus buildup finally spit out through short stories and I suppose somehow listening to a lot of Billy Bragg, Mojo and Skid Roper, and Joe Talcum and early folk songs had a spice of influence.
And I just realized something pretty funny in that I had a song recorded called "Hot Air Balloon Hijack" and didn't even think to compare it to that 'balloon boy' bullshit, Though it's a little different in scenario because it's about hijacking a hot air balloon and taking it to the moon.

I'll add more tunes later, possibly one by one, and then post the entire album with download links soon... While I still work on Death:The Infomercial and get mentally raped at 'business employment' with nightmares of upc codes strangling me and zombified customers boring me to death.

The witch ritualistically killed the Arab who was busy blowing himself up while the stock broker caused the homeless to starve and die on the street but
only after he became desperate and insane enough to mug the priest who went out and jailed the witch.. And somewhere along the way god was sitting there
watching it all but he was everywhere at once, infront of a TV screen being convinced that god was somebody else. (From some satirical tangent written with invisible ink)

I should probably get sleep someday

Today I found myself scuffing my feet along a warehouse book sale floor. $1.50 a book, or something of the like. Much like any day, it was topsy and turvy. Although later in the day I was insulted by a homeless person for no reason, I had come across a book called


which was pretty interesting as it stood off the shelve staring at me in an eye-catching manner... Also, a book simply titled '666' in bold red colors fell onto the floor as I passed through the busy shelving isles but for some reason that did not really surprise me or make me nudge at all.
Some other books that I filled up the plastic bag with were
'The Odyssey' of course, because it's been a damn long time since I've read that and that was way before I had anything to relate the meanings to.
'Nikola Tesla Returns' was another one, and even though I have no expectations for the book it should be interesting nonetheless.I know that there are many written about him that only uncover merely 20% of what he accomplished, as I suppose it's 'riskay' to write about many of his concepts since we wouldn't be slaving away drowsily if we could tap into his knowledge.

'The Roots of Coincidence' and 'I Ching-The Book Of Changes' were a couple more that I gnabbed off the shelves... And 'Learn Italian!' Why stick to one language?? Chances are, I will sloppily and slowly learn the language and then end up somewhere like Asia and wonder why I picked the wrong damn book.

Here are some 'rejected photos' from 05/2009 while I find myself reaching into endless empty bags grabbing for sleep..

'Baby, I don't wanna want a baby'

I hated this photo because it belongs in a dainty calendar or maybe as a Salt
Lake City postcard. It's calming, but, death to it.


Purple was the color of the day.


Around 2:30 in the morning

This was as close to a telescope that my camera would get.
And as it was near it's last few breaths of life, the focus was shoddy and unstable, though
sometimes I enjoyed the camera's unbalanced, blurry as hell effects before it finally
croaked on me.

Planets Must have been switched (Because there's surely no air here)

You cannot die if you're already dead...
And sometimes I wonder if planets have been switched... Or which one have I maybe ended up on. Surely it can't be real. People talk about ascension.. There is the material realm, where we stand afoot now, Like some jelloish wave of molasses with distractions and I wonder if the only next step forward is by shedding the skin, so to say:To leave the body.
There is a world of symbols fully misunderstood and a language of living through the Shamans knowledge that has been so bleached out of the conscious that it is ridiculed or scorned even being mentioned yet surely the holy "Thou Shall Not Make A Graven Image" came even before "Thou Shall Not Murder," showing how important the subconscious mind proves to be. The fact that many merely will not take in the possibility of the subconscious level of reality being something critical is in itself a "Poison" sign.

So I ask, Can you not die if you are already dead? Or maybe more suitably: Who is left alive? Maybe this is purgatory for some.. I see many lost souls and they grab for distractions. They pretend this is bliss but are not the cities and towns only a place for consumption and advertising space? And the last fields, They must be bought up or paved before freedom can surely be (evicted) spread. Rest assured, though, this is NOT the end of the world.. As I will get to soon. Yes, This is NOT the end of the world (Unless we want it to be. Unless we choose to believe what we're allowed to create.)

Sometimes the crazier things make sense in the world... It's always the repeated things that make cents, though.
My computer was quite fried and frizzled for a while and I had started too many writings and have a bit of articles started but often wonder whether to finish them and how many are already covered. Though, while delving in and out of the 'real' world my personal perspectives and takes on the in'sanity' make it often difficult to not bring up, no matter how many raised eyebrows may scold me for raising my head in this comical trench. Is it often worth sharing the perspective and advice to those with a verbal and communal bullet aimed towards you?

Songs of Reckless Reclusion



Darlin' Miss Invisible (2:51)

Train Tracks Song (4:48)

Recently I finished an EP titled 'Reckless Reclusion' which will also come out with 18 or so tracks as a full length. The whole EP is up for download at this page and hard copies are available as well for four talisman. Umm, It's a polar opposite from the Death The Infomercial project, Since these songs are more of a folk, laidback and an improvised singer/songwriter kindof thing. The full length will be a balance of comedy/drama and mostly improvised material.. I'm pretty much working on this at the exact same time as Death:The Infomercial so it's getting kind of hard to keep a pace of being able to come back up for air on occasion.

Nuking The Moon Into Modern Artwork

My computer was recently fried but I somehow managed to rehabilitate it, which in the meanwhile it is always good to take a long break and get out to breathe in some of that semi-fresh air.

Okay, bombing the moon... Lately I've had this yearning to just up and leave the Earth, but now it's quite a bothersome plan because any other planet or galaxy that I may choose to leave to just might be nuked. Yeah, I think we should blow up the moon.. We can create some sort of technology to sculpt the moon into a giant monument of Obama's head or maybe even a Walgreens logo. I'm sure many people wouldn't mind going out, looking up and seeing a huge Obama head or Walgreens branding.. Heck, it's hard to escape either one in the daylight!
The funny thing is, that months ago when mentioning the idea of 'Hey, they're planning to send a missile to the moon' or the slight reference to such an action.. "Hey man! Don't tell me fairy tales! Nutjob!"

Then, oh yes, then, A brief newscast cuts in between dead celebrity headlines and the current war,rape,death,and suicidebombing newsbriefs for a VERY quick mention 'Yeah, we bombed the moon... Looking for gatorade, that's all you need to know." -CLICK- Back to CSI or the latest police triple homicide baby raping.. All I'm saying is, one minute it's a joke that can't be taken seriously, and next, it's broadcast and "ooooh.. Okay.. So it WASSS Possible and is true."

(Actually, one insight that will probably get me in far too much trouble is to speculate if the moon even was tampered with or not. This really might mess with some people's balance on reality but just think about how anything on a screen can be taken as true and 'had happened.' The moon can have said to be dryhumped by Nasa technology but whose to say it actually has. Maybe it's selfish and outlandish to say, but take a dice roll to wonder if it is merely the minds belief that creates possibility and truth. 'A new star system was just found with ancient life forms and satellites have zoomed in with Nasa technology which recognized the placement of high tech cities scattered throughout.' Do you see how this is utter bullshit coming from my imagination yet when it is delivered over newspaper and TV transmission, as long as people are gullible it is REAL.. REAL, I tell yah', Whether anybody had experienced or had seen it or not, it's real to them. Okay, a more old fashioned example. The Earth is Flat, The Earth is Round. Take that concept and put it on repeat, for infinity and things can be pieced a bit more concisely.. I mean, only if you believe it.

I guess my only struggle and question to some people is:
Is it worth the efforts of spreading a perspective or concept of possibilities when the majority either laugh it off or fight against anything that is not science or religion?
After all, everything is perspective (My perspective) so the majority opinion seems to be what truth is crafted as.
And another question:
Why fuck with the moon, and is there more 'to it' that we're told? Also, With the moons drastic effects among the Earth's behavior, would you rate it genius or idiotic?

Can I Retire Early And Settle For A Discount Casket?

Okay, there's a few typos..(damnit) Oh well. Either way, I'm quite sure that anybody could print this out, leave it in a street somewhere and somebody surely would be able to pick it up off the ground and it would register as legitimate.
