The pandemic hit in early 2020 and making strange songs was my way to cope. These songs are a bookend to my years in the Pacific Northwest. I can feel the cold on my hands, sitting on the banks of the Willamette. The days blurred together like the clouds in the dreary Portland skies.

A.C.O.B. and Run feature the falsetto howling which has come to define the Idiotcore sound. And Penance is a brief foray into a hanging-microphone punk aesthetic, and you can almost place yourself at a bandstand in the 1950’s.
