I hadn't done new music in a very long time. There was the track for the Stephen Petrus benefit compilation, and the track for the hardcover edition of the "Fight Your Own War" book I contributed to, but not a lot else. At the end of 2016 I started working again. At the encouragement of … Continue reading The Corvidae Cabal – New Project

I can't remember how long it's been since I started working on this, but I'm happy and relieved to report that everything is finally with the label and moving towards completion.

A split cassette limited to 100 between myself and Torture Chamber. Torture Chamber was an early experimental project of Jonathan … Continue reading Bisect: 20th Anniversary Reissue
Dragging The Rivers Of Sleep – New Release
I mentioned here a very long time ago that Fall of Nature Records had approached me about putting together a rare and unreleased collection. I took an absurd amount of time pulling things together, but I'm happy to say it's nearly done. Even better, the label was still interested in releasing it. I'm really pleased … Continue reading Dragging The Rivers Of Sleep – New Release
Coming Storm
I stumbled across this the other day on YouTube, and hadn't see before. It's a short film reflecting on Dust Bowl and where we may be headed again. I didn't know about it or have anything to do with it, but filmmaker Kate MacDonald used Gruntsplatter and Umbra in the score. It's definitely worth spending … Continue reading Coming Storm
