Comment:

a mix inspired by j.t. leroy's disturbing novel of the same name. side one captures the hollow pain and heartbreak of jeremiah with songs mostly of acoustic guitars, piano, strings and some of the most emotive voices in my collection. side two is more electric but still haunting as i tried to convey the wide spectrum of subjects leroy touches upon (prostitution, rape, religious and sexual control, abuse) and the emotions jeremiah felt as he grew up on the road with his "mother" sarah.

So YOU were the one who stole my Jeff Buckley! I sure would like it back, less the anal lube, please.

Looks good and is worthy of some kind of notoriety. I don't know what, but this deserves mentioning.

Congratulations! (Religious control isn't so much depressing as it is
sickening. The "my myth is better than yours" inanity of it all.) Hail Pan!

Joatmon...., we are ALL "forest gods", if the truth could be told so as to be understood. (To quote Terence.)

The book, the mix...both are good. If they ever make the book into a movie, this mix should be the soundtrack.
