Yeah, pretty much what the name of the post implies. The left thumbnail is another attempt at a banner-sized sort of ad for the site for Project Wonderful. I think it’s actually pretty good, though the URL on the right is a bit superfluous, as the banner will link directly to the site anyway. On …

There’s some new material inside the Into the Aether section of the site. One track is a collection of Epic Failure rejected guitar takes, while the other one isn’t, but both probably do a good job of showing that I’m a better bassist than I am a guitarist. That hasn’t stopped me yet, though… Also, …

This update is really more to inform you that I finished recording another song that I’ll upload tomorrow. We’re going back to MIDI drums on this one, because I recorded it awhile back, but had to go back and re-do the guitar for reasons I’ll explain when I upload it. In any event, click the …

First of all, you’ll notice a new link on the sidebar, to Good-Evil, which is a Shizzie-run website dedicated to reviewing everything from music to alcohol. I wrote a guest review for them concerning my favorite Led Zeppelin album, Houses of the Holy. Currently it’s the top entry on the site; if you for some …

This week here on the site, I did actual, real work on the front end of the site, adding a new collection of fun musical things to give you, the listener, a glimpse into what it sounds like when a take goes horribly wrong, or when I just want to record something for its own …

This morning, I was woken up by my dad. Evidently, during the night, someone had decided to play a game of “Throw a log at the back windshield of the car in the road”. That car, unfortunately, was mine. Long story short is that the windshield is completely broken, and the glass repair place can’t …

Clearly not learning a thing from my little business card debacle, earlier today I did a sketch of an attempt at a..logo isn’t quite the right word, but a font of sorts that I’d put on albums and any other merchandise that my musical endeavors may spawn. I actually only got as far as “EMPTY”, …

As I promised yesterday, I’ve uploaded a new song tonight. The song is called “Tuition Madness“, and it’s basically about how US society expects you to pile up thousands of dollars in debt on an education so you can go out and work yourself into even more debt later in life. You can read about …

This week here at emptyeye.com, I once again failed utterly to deliver any music. Fortunately, other than an overarching “have rough mixes ready by mid-April” schedule, I’m not really on any sort of deadline to actually produce anything there. Tomorrow, I’ll have some time to myself, and can hopefully throw down some vocals and have …

This week on Emptyeye.com…again, not much happened. I did a lot of thinking about the site, and very little actually acting on it, either in recording new music or promotion. One of the things I’m looking at is using Project Wonderful for ads. It’s essentially a never-ending EBay auction for adspace on the participating sites. …
