Anticipation Of Falling
Walking Bombs
Don't be so paralyzed You've been living a life of desperation Taking other people's dictation/hollow expectations I know it kills at times/feeling like there is more to this than displacement It gets tasteless, but I've still got my dreams to chase it. Set aside your fear/embrace your true calling Try to push down the anticipation of falling For all those years, you stood at the waters edge/ So afraid you'd get in over your head. Oh to be an amputee/could I erase my debts with fingers? Would it buy me eight more hours away from the ringing in my ears? The frequency of fantasy/oh so violent in their nature I want to make the ocean calmer and dive headfirst off the pier. And She said to "hold fast" We're out here...out in the wilderness. With just out hearts and our wits. Wonder who gives a shit. Lookin' for true north with a drunken compass. Nobody's perfect.

The debut Walking Bombs album turns 10 years old in October of 2025 and was never mastered until now. I figured I should fix that. Hope you’ll enjoy it. It is the most distilled essence of the project…the initial steps that made me brave enough to “go solo”. The two songs with the I Multiply kids are literally the first tunes I wrote for this project.

Recorded hot on the heels of the passing of my father amidst a very emotional time in Saugerties, NY… back when I showed my Beatles and Nirvana influences a lil more. The title track is still by far one of my favorite songs to play live, when I ever actually play live anymore (USX fans will want to check out Nate Hall’s absolutely scorching guest solo).
