dude totally didn't throw enough money at his recordings.
OMFG, JWR is going to be on ROCK BAND:
JWR plays melodic, guitar-driven mid-fi indie rock in the school of Guided By Voices and Neutral Milk Hotel, if GBV's roots were fIREHOSE instead of The Who, and if NMH wrote shorter songs. You can hear a lot of it on The James Rocket.
He plays bass with NYC aural assaultists extraordinaire, A Bunch Of Girls.
just stopping by to see what you've been up to. the rockband thing is freaky/awesome! paper valentine's is, indeed, a hit. if you ever find yourself in detroit, hit me up. oh, and check out my wctm gold! page. there's an actual band now.
if you're interested, you can download our new ep at http://intheaudience.bandcamp.com for free (it's a pay what you want system, so you can pay nothing, or you can pay as much as you want)! you can't lose with a deal like that, right? haha
if you mean more music around, there should be at least one new song up within the next week or so! we're just finishing up some recordings for an EP that should be up for digital download on the 20th.
