About Slow Trucks

The odd production of a shy insomniac, a band of merry influences, and a forever revolving band. We whisper, roil (occasionally boiling and popping) but always dragging the sound from our hearts.

aloüi	Sep 7 2008 4:11 AM and this is the story i was trying to recall: ...In 1912, his mother committed suicide by drowning herself in the River Sambre. Magritte was present when her body was retrieved from the water. The image of his mother floating, her dress obscuring her face, may have influenced a 1927-1928 series of paintings of people with cloth obscuring their faces... a.k. a the lovers? ehh??? eh????
aloüi	Sep 7 2008 4:07 AM This is the painting by magritte that i was trying to explain to you. http://www. cronopios. com. br/site/images/iex/julho2006/magritte. jpg

Eric Victorino	Sep 3 2008 8:23 PM how is recording going sir?
Nick Chu	Aug 30 2008 9:24 AM Seriously, I cannot stop listening to your stuff. I'll definitely buy your record when it's done. Where/when are you performing next? It'd kill me to miss you again -- I couldn't make it to your show at Barefoot.
mark xsiux	Aug 27 2008 6:18 AM you're great. i personally love each song, you're songs are very raw and to me it makes it better.
ericarlos	Aug 26 2008 8:45 PM Haha, no ive listened to your stuff, it is far from obnoxious noise;) hope we didn’t interrupt any recording. We have a CD release show Sept 5th w/ David Knight and Ben Henderson. We would enjoy your presents
Eric Victorino	Aug 25 2008 4:06 PM where are you recording?! i'd love to stop by and lend some moral support :)
Monsters In Flight	Aug 20 2008 3:29 AM Thanks so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the new music! After realizing my singing voice isn't that easy on the ears I've decided to write all the lyrics and have a different singer on each track. I'll let you know when I start! Is there any way to get a CD of your music? I keep getting tracks stuck in my head and having a CD might help to calm the voices haha.
wrack	Aug 19 2008 3:53 PM you're an asshole!
Nick Chu	Aug 18 2008 8:57 PM I'm in love with "Orpheus" and "Let's Move Valentine's Day This [I'm assuming there's more to the song's name, but you got cut off or something]. "
Eric Victorino	Aug 11 2008 9:19 PM i love you. hard.

Lisa	Jul 28 2008 6:57 PM haha, your music is amazing! My friend and I had a picnic on this peninsula overlooking a reservoir and your music made it perfect! Anyways, I got a hold of you since my best friend's brother works at Barefoot coffee shop on Steven's Creek, my friend got a hold of the CD from her brother, then she shared it with me and we both just loved it, so thanks : )
