Cold Iron progress report

So, I've got two songs in the can. One more that will be in the can in the next couple of days. Lyrics for a couple more--not counting "Aeon's End" which I wrote and recorded some time ago.

I'm having surgery in a couple of weeks which will lay me up for a few days--I want to get as much tracking done as I can before then. I hate leaving a project for an extended period when I'm right in the middle of it, then coming back to it later. It takes me forever to get back into the groove.

Making this one is a little bit like open heart surgery for me--most of the songs are autobiographical, personal, about people and events that shaped my life. Which means it's pretty dark. But there will be some lighter stuff, too, that I hope you'll like. Sure, most of my stuff is about me, in some manner, but most of my stuff is like a story told in the third person. These--or most of them, anyways--are a bit more direct.

So, hopefully the entire Cold Iron song cycle will make it's debut in the next few months. In the mean time, click the links above or to your right to hear my other stuff--the Ashes and Bone song cycle, or the Mythophobia song cycle. Plus some other stuff.

Speaking of Mythophobia, I'm hoping I'll finally find the initiative to dive back into my screeplay for the (hopeful) film with that title and do another rewrite. I guess there's no hurry but I would like to have that in good enough shape to have people look at it. If I can get anyone interested in it enough to read it, that is.

Anyways, watch this space for updated, enjoy the tunes out there now, don't be afraid to let me know what you think. Input is always welcomed! If you love it, especially, let me know. If you hate it, let me know that, too--a strong reaction, even a negative one, is better than boredom. "Boring" is the absolute worst criticism one can level at any artistic endevour. imho
