Jewels in the Mouth of the Corpse was a long time in the making, or rather, a long time in the releasing, having been completed at the dog-end of 2007 and then sitting, sadly neglected on disc for several months. But now here it is!

a concept album, about how stuff never happens the way you think it should.

instruments include
classical guitar, electric guitar, broken keyboards, drums, etc.

Catfish Savior was recorded over 2 sessions at Arkain Studios. All songs were made up on the spot, when the tape started rolling. Everything was played live. It will hurt you.

Recorded after one of UCSB's anti-nuclear protests on May 9th, 2007. Instead of feeling excited I just felt depressed and angry and recorded these songs using only my friend Ingrid's electric guitar and my (then new) harmonicas. Listening to these again I really like them, but they can be a bit much. I know some of you will like it.

Alexandra Tengco did the cover!

Raw sketches of my mind.

Secret garden rock!

Old school collective, ladies and gentlemen! Do any of you old timers remember this lass? Also, if you're wondering about track two, it flew the coop. Bam, smash, gone like creamed corn!

Demos for the album that would never came to be

Sort of a prequel song to the whole concept album

The Leisure Hive was written and recorded over a two week period in the summer of 2006, while suffering the effects of nicotine withdrawal. Physical copies of the album were released that fall on the Domestic Honey label.

This album was sort of a sampler of what was to come of the debut album "First Strike On Unseen Eyes"

A collection of songs, mainly written by S. Wheeler with contributions from C.White, A. Carlson and T.Smith, that were recorded in December of 2007 in the basement of A. Andueza.

An accompanying EP to 2006's "Birds Were Meant To Fly," composed and performed by Kevin Coons with drums performed by Paul Frankel. Features a single from the album ("Don't Wake Me Up"), two non-album tracks, and an acoustic demo.

A very personal and emotionally intimate EP, with the more ambient sound of earlier Candle recommended for fans of the One AM Radio and Appleseed Cast.
