Darci, there's a cold wind blowing tonight The kind of wind that'll make you cry And freeze the tears right to your cheeks The kind of wind that puts the whitecaps on the lake And turns a placid place into a raging sea Darci, there's a cold wind blowing tonight And it gusts from deep inside Alienating everyone I touch And I could never earn the faith you've placed in me I can't believe that you believe in me so much It's only temporary It's only temporarily It's only temporary I'm only temporarily gone I'm only temporary I know I'll get out of it soon Yeah, I know the joke Yeah I know, yeah I know I'm thankful for what I landed in a way I'm thankful for what broke and never healed Darci, there's a cold wind blowing tonight And I'd advise you to stay inside Until it's past, for your own sake After seven months of thoughtlessness I turn round to see the devastation That the wind left in its wake Darci, there's a cold wind blowing tonight But in the morning it'll be all right And there will still be a world to see And there will be pieces that can be picked up And there will be things that must be left behind And we must judge them carefully And there will be pieces that can be picked up And there will be things that must be left behind And we must judge them carefully And there will be pieces that can be picked up (I'm thankful for what broke and never healed) And there will be things that must be left behind (I'm thankful for what broke) And we must judge them carefully

No, man, like I told you - if I tweet, I delete it. It doesn't matter anymore. It's more powerful that way. Yo! You heard my song, right? What? I said, you heard my song, right? Oh, yeah, yeah. All right, so hit it. I need ten pounds off my ass A healthier shadow to cast Growing up in these Thirstbuster times Gauntly humming plumpsquirmed birdies Preying on our Scan-Tron beauties Glory days, C-minus fortified You got born-born wrong time big guy Doc wind off-hand laughing at the why Travelodge medallion hypnotist Just killed off my last witness Fort Laramie was kindling for Dawes Acts Costumed in an ellipsis Issued from a glib ass-kiss Gasconade from Plymouth to Alcatraz You got born-born wrong time big guy Doc wind off-hand laughing at Three pictures of a prison food fight Prison food fight Prison food fight Three pictures of a prison food fight Prison food fight Prison food fight Three award-losing pictures of a prison food fight GO I like to delete tweets (Delete tweets) I like to delete tweets (Delete tweets) I like to delete tweets (Delete tweets) I like to delete tweets (Delete tweets) I don't care if my followers fall to two Just as long as one of them is you I don't care if my followers fall to one Fall to Fall to One.

1-2-3-4! I knew who I was at the time I kept it hushed like a crime When it rains, I'm all wet It helps to grow the Chia Pet Clouds Some are high Some are low Some are black Some are gray That's what they told me (Go!) It's getting hard, so hard to see Nature Boy has got the fleas The sky is dark, it isn't shining The bastards took the silver lining Clouds Some are high Some are low Some are black Some are gray That's what they told me (Go!) It's getting hard, so hard to see Nature Boy has got the fleas The sky is dark, it isn't shining The bastards took the silver lining Clouds Some are high Some are low Some are black Some are gray That's what they told me (Stop!)

about

2020 and 2021 weren’t good for much, but being homebound did allow me to sort through 30 years of old recordings, and unarchive tons of shelved and incomplete material.

And then finish that shit!

I am not really interested in doing “albums” anymore… holding music back until a dozen arbitrarily-linked songs are mixed and mastered and the stars and planets align. But at the same time, “singles” are kind of boring and “EPs” demand some degree of cohesion, and I don’t want to be boxed in like that. So here is what I offer you: THREE-PACKS

Remember those randomly-bagged multipacks of comic books they used to sell in toy and drug stores? You wouldn’t be able to see what was inside until you tore open the plastic, and the comics might be brand new or fifteen years old… it was just whatever happened to be laying around when they bundled it up. There was no thematic connection, no rhyme or reason to the collection, and one bag could even contain books from both Marvel AND DC. I was introduced to so many fun stories that way, and that is how I am going to introduce (or reintroduce) you to all of these songs.

This three-pack includes the Rob Hill masterpiece “Darci (There's A Cold Wind Blowing Tonight)” (2017), "Three Pictures Of A Prison Food Fight” (2020), and a four-track demo of "Clouds” (1992). You can read more about each track if you click through to its page.

I’m not promising these three-packs in any regularly-scheduled fashion… and I’m not going to tell you about them in advance. When I feel like one is ready, it will just appear. They may have Skyscape/Hanslick Rebellion/Collider songs on them. All of my records from the past that are not currently available digitally will be represented, as well as material you have never heard, including brand-new stuff. But as far as I’m concerned, all of this music is new to most of the universe - and these are fresh versions of everything anyway, so I hope that in a way it will also be new to you.

Let’s have some fun <3
- Jed
