DECEPTOR “liner notes…”
As digital releases suffer from a disappointing lack of liner notes, I wanted to supply some vital information for the new Brainclaw release, DECEPTOR:
▪️Vocalist/Lyricist: Tara Lessard
▪️Bassist: Noel Conklin of Carfax Abbey
▪️Guitarist: John Ruszin III of Carfax Abbey/Modern Day Grey
▪️Vocalist/Lyricist: Gary Billings of Carfax Abbey/God Shaped Void
DECEPTOR is dedicated to the late Tara Lessard who contributed so much to this recording. Rest, T. You have earned it.
Completed DECEPTOR album artwork
The album artwork for DECEPTOR is complete, approved and sent to the distributor. This is finally feeling real. Exciting times, Clawlings. Tentative release date is April 24.
THE TIME IS RIGHT.
For anyone who still remembers, I just wrote out, formatted and proofed every single lyric for the RIDICULOUSLY overdue new Brainclaw album DECEPTOR.
I HEAVILY reviewed all 12 master audio files for all of the new songs, and have given them the FINAL seal of approval.
I have contacted my distributors.
If the recent passing of Tara and this virus lockdown has shown me anything, it is that it is TIME TO FINALLY SHIT, or get off the pot for good.
My daughter Gwennie is turning five in May, and I have given her five full years of my undivided attention. My older stepsons are turning into men. Time is passing.
This album and electronic music in general have been clawing at my brain for the better part of ten years.
I have watched my favorite media franchises and more sadly and importantly, every single one of my musical heroes be slowly absorbed and destroyed by the current sociopolitical climate. It has infuriated me beyond words.
I have tried my best to ignore it all. FOR TEN YEARS.
NO LONGER. You deserve better. So… if there is anyone left who remembers:
STAY TUNED, CLAWLINGS.
IT IS FINALLY HAPPENING.
