Nine months ago, I released a rudimentary EP of campfire-style ghost stories about beards. It was not at all successful. So now I have released a narrative concept EP of still fairly rudimentary cosmic horror songs about beards! Progress! opinionatedwhiskers.bandcamp…
The "Owen is Going to be Negative Today" CDs have arrived. This could be worth $1,000 or more on the collector's market one day. But you can have one for $500. Or $5. Or, you know, just ask for one at the next Motern Extravaganza and if I remember to bring some I'll give you one.
I'm proud to announce the release of "Owen is Going to be Negative Today." Five years in development, it's the single finest album of songs entirely about @cartooncurious ever written. Available on Spotify, Bandcamp, etc., with physical CDs coming soon! open.spotify.com/album/22Fa6…
And congrats to @Jma48Mitch for his new Tod Got Overexcited release today as well! It's a banner day for artists that strive to follow the @MoternMedia Motern Method! open.spotify.com/album/2dfeH…
I'm once again temporarily coming to Twitter to promote an album release (the only reason I come here any more, which I know calls my entire moral structure into question). Anyway, COMING VERY SOON: an album of songs written between 2018 and 2024 all about @cartooncurious!
I'm not *angry* that @MoternMedia fans at large failed to recognize that, while Magic Spot is very good, Boston Johnny is an absolute masterpiece of a farcical comedy. Rather, I'm just *disappointed* in you all (and especially how lopsided the vote is.) Oh well. I know I'm right.
Since I'm temporarily on Twitter again to promote my new I Am Drape Boy EP, I'm going to take advantage of this opportunity to publicly state what to me is a clear and self-evident truth: @MoternMedia and @ShockMarathons' Boston Johnny is a better movie than Magic Spot. Agree?

Just as @MoternMedia wrote the "The 50" book to recount the creation of those albums, I too have written the story behind this EP. Or more accurately, I had ChatGPT write it based on a three sentence prompt (and had to do surprisingly little editing). simp.ly/p/hjJYbR
"I Am Drape Boy" is available not just on Spotify (as per the above link), but on Bandcamp (link below) and all other usual streaming sites. theotherstrangeman.bandcamp.…
For many reasons, I'm done posting on Twitter. (I'm sure my 100 followers will be sorely disappointed.) I'll keep my account for the moment so I can exchange private messages with friends until I have alternatives set up. Best wishes to all--I hope to see all of you elsewhere!
So @cartooncurious sent me the in-process art for "Owen Is Going to be Negative Today," the 4-years-in-the-making compilation of songs I've written about Owen, and the art looks great! I hope to have discs ready in time to force free copies on @MoternMedia Extravaganza attendees.
This will prove that Owen can count on me, and not @Jma48Mitch, to be his most reliable artistic collaborator.
Much to my genuine and tremendous surprise, the listening public has crowned Mature Love Songs the superior @MoternMedia album over Roy & Cathy in a lopsided 60%/40% victory. Congratulations MLS! #vindication
I'm curious if anyone else agrees with me that @MoternMedia's Mature Love Songs, as an overall album, is stronger than Roy and Cathy? (R&C scales higher heights, but also plunges much lower lows in the second half. MLS is very good throughout.) So which is better?

I've requested it for past shows, but I think Matt said it would be hard to do live. I accept that, but it's a *spectacular* song! youtube.com/watch?v=yCBlD_Kw…
