Other Houses
NEW RELEASE! Didactic Debt Collectors by Other Houses
Another leap in my songwriting and self-production development, I’d say. Five songs about the cognitive dissonance I encountered around the time of turning 30. “Arc of the Arrow” is probably my favorite song I ever wrote. “Jacket’s Creed” took the most time. Brenna and I made a video for “Drab Vocabulary” and it turned out nice!

Tunneling Into Holidays by Other Houses
Four songs I recorded at my old apartment in New York and house in Hackensack. One came from a half-remembered punk-house show. The next is about the vertiginous feelin of joining the middle class. The one after that is about education below true education. The last one is about being an obsessive nut. You know the drill.

Funny Papers by Other Houses
A response to sudden grief and the ultimate Other Houses album. The band was me and Mark and Kirk and Ross. Mostly first takes. I can’t really explain what happened in the studio that week but it contains all I can do. I published an essay about it. Start here for sure.

Fortune Selector by Other Houses
Six power pop songs, full band, all about being invisibly pulled to New York. We just threw up some mics and did it. A good primer, I’d say.

Jangle Omega by Other Houses
The all-demos sequel to Zero Sum Defeater nobody asked for. Mellow and odd and lopsided. A peculiar mood.

Zero Sum Defeater by Other Houses
A Bandcamp-only collection of punchy home demos. Weird sonics but high momentum. Pete Townshend moment.

Fabulous Dates by Other Houses
A really quick and intense LP I still can’t figure out. Harpsichords and wild fuzz and songs about socializing and fun that tear you limb from limb. The weirdest one by far.

Bad Reputation by Other Houses
The first Other Houses full-length I did and an ode to space, lasers, astronomy and the future. I can’t believe it exists.
