The amazing people at Weird Canada took some time to shoot some shots of me while touring Thrillogy, and got me to say a few things on the crap I’ve been hauling around. Really honoured they ask me to do this. Photo by the amazing Landon Speers. Thanks to Lando, and Jesse, and Weird Canada.

After multiple sleepless nights attempting to get it ready in time for the tour, Thrillogy is now complete! GreyScreen has easily delivered the most bangin’ tracks he’s whipped out yet, finding that perfect balance between crushing chiptune and the adventurousness of video games past….

Still just waiting on a couple of venues to give the 100%, but you can count on me being there. Also, I’d love to fill in an Ohio date on the 6th. What I had fell through. So, house party, wedding, whatever. If you have an outlet, let’s make it happen. Can’t wait to meet all of you!
Will update.
GreyScreen = killer Nintendo chiptunes. I mean, like many of my generation, he grew up on GameBoy and now he makes music with gameboys. His live shows are amazing and exciting; they’re much more than watching some dude stare at a screen. Another interesting factoid about our chippy friend: He’s a hardcore punk fanatic and you’ll often find him playing Black Flag covers at his shows (and other hardcore songs that I probably should know more about).
He also happens to run a very cool tape label called BART records and a sister vinyl label called Revolution Winter. What I’m trying to say is, he’s cool.
I think this GreyScreen project originated when he was fighting the war in Korea, aka working in Korea for a few months. At least, that’s what I like to think… No one’s promising facts here.
This one’s called “Wounded in the Stones”
