By the way, since we’re on the lovely subject of caskets, the cover for my last LP, along with the animated sequence, was meant to show a cyborg preserved in a futuristic burial glass chamber, coming back to life.

The people who loudly proclaim their morality and righteousness (especially when it comes to religion) always have skeleton-stuffed closets. The real work of goodness happens quietly, behind the scenes, done by those who do good for goodness sake, not for public glorification.

As much as possible, I try to include my little doggo Hamlet in my music videos. He always does a good job stealing the spotlight. This is one of my favorites - him as Baby Cerberus in “Medusa” 🐍🖤

Finally saw GDT’s “Frankenstein.” That was so lush and exquisite down to the last detail. It also makes me want to start drawing anatomy again like back in high school and college.
