Listening to music and going to concerts with friends and following my favourite football team.
You can read reviews of the concerts I've been to in my Blog
(this list is far from being complete)
Check out my Last.FM page to get to know what I'm listening to at the moment.
Read more about good music here:
I can't cry, I can't apply a word to sum it up
Under stress I can't repress the moment it erupts
Hear the sound of paper drums and shredded paper voice
Got to turn up 'Keep Hanging On' as if I had a choice
Prairie fires and pitchfork choirs inspire as they create
Turn it up, It's too far down, until we can relate
Minnesota New Day Rising first day in the store
Take the couch at someone's house and wait around to score
Nervous children making millions: you owe it all to them
Power trios with big-ass deals: you opened for it then
I can see, I can see, I can see it all with my one good eye

I'm happy to announce that my new album "Songs From The Films Of David Lynch" is out now.
"Truly unsettling and perplexingly brilliant... testament to both the quality of Lynch’s soundtracks and Truax’s talents" - The Skinny
"Truax is paying homage to a kindred spirit with this album. It's the best kind of tribute – affectionate and respectful, but with its own quirks and imaginative leaps and its own distinct identity." -The Scotsman

"Kein Wunder, dass er Angst davor hat, auf der Bühne erschossen zu werden..."
"Und vor Erdbeben." Nur Johnny Volume konnte darüber lachen. "Das mit dem Erschießen, das hatten sie auch in Velvet Goldmine. "
"Wie?"
"In dem Film, mit Ewan McGregor, fängt die Story genau damit an. Und dann ist es nichts weiter als ein PR-Gag. "
"Ein Attentat als PR-Gag?"
"Auch gut, fast klassisch: We set out to change the world... ended up just changing ourselves", imitiert er einen Iggy Pop imitierenden Ewan McGregor. "What's wrong with that? / Nothing, if you don't look at the world!"
Thanks for the add Rainer. I hope we aren't too offensive to your ears. Iain actually sprinkled his magic dust all over the latest demos. Hope you're well.
