Critical
Mass - Ron's now drumming in a Chicago Band which has changed its name
to Sonic Footprint - stream some whole tunes at MySpace, buy CDs and MP3s at CD Baby, or vote at Garage Band. See also single-song or whole album purchase at iTunes. Check out the track I wrote: Irresponsible
|
| Intactivist Videos | YouTubes decrying circumcision. Some original songs, mostly parodies and monologues. |
| Love You Forever | Finally, a sweet intactivist lullaby. |
| Irresponsible (demo) | Sung from the point of view of a battered invaded nation. |
| Garbage Day | An anti-Bush, Rock-the-Vote sort of
heavy guitar anthem (chords) |
| Honesty (demo) | An honest world leader would admit that superstition is the cause of most world strife. Is this anything? (chords) (lyrics) |
| Confession | Based on a true story of a
kid who settled a drug-related debt by tipping a gang member off to the return
of his own aunt from the currency exchange where she cashed her tax refund
check. She was gunned down in March 2002 in front of her Chicago home in
front of her daughter and husband, who were also wounded. The nephew
confessed a month later.
This was the music bed for the TLC Tugger radio ads. The track is still missing a guitar lead. |
| Love is Ecstacy (demo) | Is this anything? (chords) |
| Love Through Your Eyes (demo) | A whimpy love song, but a very special one. I wrote this for my sister's wedding by drawing from the thoughts and love letters of the happy couple. The recording from the ceremony is even worse, due to wind noise. |
| You Turn Me On (demo) | For my wife on our 10th anniversary. Another whimpy one. |
| Immortality | For my dear children. I'm going to miss you when I'm dead. Smile. (lyrics) |
| Fun Being Three | The ongoing struggle to keep a marriage fresh. |
| Watch Me Grow | This is about my best friend's smokin' hot sister (so was "Mary and Joey" until I hit upon the Jesus angle). She once said to me: "Isn't it amazing how when you cut your finger, you can almost watch it heal?" It made me wonder if she was actually into self-injury and crying out for help. |
| Mary and Joey | What if biblical Joseph didn't want to become famous for being married to a virgin? (lyrics) |
