Sounds Like
live shows with a lot of acoustic guitars that go "chugga-chugga-beeern-neer-neerow"
vocals that vary in pitch and like to go "la-dee-da-fucking-words-that-rhyme"
recorded beats that go "bum-da-do-bah-chick-a-poo-tah" and sometimes "doot-pssh-pssh-doot-bah-pssh"
Deep in the heart of the mountains of Pennsylvania, someone is listening to Secretly Plotting Your Burial... probably. Somewhere on the internet though, not so much. Thanks for clicking on us. We're better than porn.
Secretly Plotting Your Burial is the brain child of Jake Karns and John Black both of the Oil City area in Northwestern PA.
we're always looking for shows, so if you want us to play at your bar mitzvah or in your basement, let us know. though we live in oil city, and we've been playing for years, we still don't have very many fans. so if you know someone who needs a band to love for themselves, we're your guys. if you're feeling down, we'll help make you smile. if you're day is going too well, we'll find a way to piss you off. whatever you need, we got you covered.
We encourage you to download our 4-song EP entitled The Devil Asked Me Nicely for free at garageband.com. You can click the links throughout this message, or if they give you trouble, just go to any of the sites mentioned and search for Secretly Plotting Your Burial. Also, feel free to add us to your MySpace friends if you have an account. You can also find us on PureVolume, IAC Independent Artists Company and Last.fm. Finally, we are certainly looking for any help that anyone can offer us to help promote our music. If you have any resources or connections you would like to share with us, please don't hesitate to do so. Send us a message on myspace or garageband or e-mail me at jakekarns@hotmail.com. Thanks for listening.

UNFORTUNATELY, IT'S UP TO YOU TO SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL MUSICIANS. WE'RE HONORED TO BE YOUR WELFARE CASE.
Below are the links to directly download our EP. Help yourself and feel free to share with others.
so your music is pretty much amazing! me and smash were listening to kid chameleon the other day it gave us mad goosebumps. keep your shit up. its great.
While helping cleaning up the carnage after your awesome set Friday evening, I happened upon your set list (crudely scrawled on the back of a Wal-mart sales receipt), which I saved so you both can sign for me at the next possible opportunity. Tough luck with that G-string Johnny B...but good set anyway. Thanks.
the new album sounds great. i liked the unmastered version of sweet little white thing better than the final mix, but overall you guys sound amazing. seriously, thank you for renewing my faith in local music.
don't let the lack of listens fool you, you two are leaps and bounds ahead of the cookie cutter garbage being released under the moniker of "music" in our local market. the area may not be ready to accept *gasp* songwriters just yet, unless you tune down, get bigger belt buckles and snarl about wearing your sisters pants.
guys, the new tunes are EXCELLENT! i love sweet little white thing, and dance monster dance. i'm completely captivated by your sound. how can i get a copy of the new album??
I was cleaning my car the other day and listening to my Ipod on shuffle....the devil asked me nicely came on and i was excited lol, i turned it up so everyone in the neighborhood could hear..i think they love me now. Miss you, ♥Lindsay
I can't remember if I ever mentioned that I actually have downloaded, listened to, and enjoyed your EP. I apologize for the lack of feedback. Looking forward to a show some day!
Since my computer doesnt download music off of myspace i was excited you put the ep on garageband.com......ive now downloaded the whole ep. its fantastic, im gonna put it on my i pod and make everyone listen to it
Eventhough i've heard you guys play several times, i listened to each song, in its entirety.... Good job guys! I hope that Jake now feels adiquet... You guys are hott, sick, sweet, and awesome! (and every other redicilious adjective used to describe something great)
