OK, I’m off to Africa in a matter of hours, and that godawful Toto song is already stuck in my head. (Thanks, Jason.) But don’t despair: for those of you who are already jonesing, I’ve hidden a really subtle link somewhere on the site to some very rough demos. (Most of them were recorded while Misha was out of town, so don’t think I’m trying to take over the band or anything.) We’ll be back in the saddle by mid-October. Good luck finding that secret link.

Giant cogs turning. Lovagogue pt. 2 waiting for you to download it right the hell now. Newly recorded “Clones” EP looking and sounding like a redheaded stepchild. Still obscenely hot out here in the desert where we live.

Not much to report, aside from the fact that we’ve added a few pictures to the website and the first part of our punchdrunk singsick Lovagogue show has finally been posted.

How can it be this hot at 3am?
