The Seven Deadly Sinners

The Jock Cave

This was a piece done back in late January of this year for FFWD to commemorate the 25 anniversary of CJSW, the campus radio station at the U of C. The printed version had some kind of obstruction going on due to the inclusion of a strange hockey puck-looking design element, but here it is in all its debris-strewn, stained-floored, duct-taped glory. The inclusion of the Vindicators album cover was a shout-out to my buddy, Daaren Boreham, who hired me back in 1988 to do my very first record sleeve for a band that I wasn't in!

Found Art: Monsters in the bushes

Something I saw yesterday. What could it be? Here is one interpretation.

These Bones For Hire

"The days spent waiting were making me disappear, not quite a ghost yet, but not quite whole. When she finally walked in, stepping into the shadows like she was stepping into a cool bath, I realized I'd been tailing the wrong dame. The picture was complete and I was wearing the frame. She shot me a look that was like a bullet from a gun. Everything was about to go wrong and I didn't give a damn". R.F.

Now, dear children, pay attention / I am the voice from the pillow
I have brought you something / I ripped it from my chest

With this heart I have the power / to blackmail the eyelids
I sing until the day awakes / a bright light on the heavens
my heart burns

They come to you in the night/ demons, ghosts, black fairies
they creep out of the cellar shaft / and will look under your bedding

Now, dear children, pay attention / I am the voice from the pillow
I have brought you something / a bright light on the heavens
my heart burns

They come to you in the night / and steal your small hot tears
they wait until the moon awakes / and put them in my cold veins

Now, dear children, pay attention / I am the voice from the pillow
I sing until the day awakes / a bright light on the heavens
my heart burns
my heart burns
