Beautiful, melancholic and very well executed. Talked to my soul.

Following a series of digital singles (The Blonde Leading the Blonde, King of the Kingdom of Man and Hearts Are Made For Beating) and a moment in the national spotlight, having scored the 150th episode of the FOX TV show, American Dad!, Wax Fang takes a wild detour into the far reaches of outer space with THE ASTRONAUT.
This is not your typical album. It is not your typical concept album either. THE ASTRONAUT is a grandiose sonic odyssey flowing seamlessly from each of its three movements to the next like a space shuttle through a psychedelic intergalactic landscape. A space rock opera concerning the fate of a lone space traveler, separated from his vessel, who is then swallowed by a black hole and transformed into a celestial super being, it is an ode to the wonder, the majesty and the horror of the universe.
Scott Carney elegantly tells the tragic tale of THE ASTRONAUT over a cinematic backdrop of heavy psych-pop guitar riffs, swirling synthesizers, acid jazz saxophones, theremin wizardry, and lush string arrangements. Each movement finds Carney expanding his ever increasing palette of voices. Whether he’s crooning a soft, floating melody, shouting like deranged madman, or belting out a Broadway delivery, every word aims to hit the listener like sub atomic particles in the Large Hadron Collider.
The world was treated to a taste of the album when segments of The Astronaut Part 2 and The Astronaut Part 3 were featured on American Dad!. On January 28th, the world will finally see the scope and magnitude of this modern take on space travel. Released through the band’s own Don’t Panic Records, THE ASTRONAUT will be available at all digital outlets, with the vinyl LP and CD available exclusively through the bands website, www.waxfang.com.
With everyone tossing around the word “epic” like it’s nothing these days, it has begun to lose its meaning. Wax Fang hopes to change all of that with THE ASTRONAUT, a truly epic adventure in every sense of the word. So sit back, relax, and prepare to blast off!

Dub FX - Made

I'm releasing this old previously 'private' demo, as it really resonates with me now, during the Pandemic: "the souls beneath the frozen ground, them Black Death bones, they crack and cry , and pull me down" (verse 2). Forgive this less than perfect GarageBand demo... I am working on improving my recording skills during lockdown. This was the first 'electronic' track I recorded - no real instruments. Its morbid and morose, which is why I never released it. It might only stay here a couple of weeks - but something to fill the vacuum inspired by the last Plague.

Sara Hawley - Adele Cover (make You Feel My Love)

a weird end-song about nuclear explosions at christmas

colours swirl around when I'm tired
remind me of you in the snow
when I look through the blast
casts a silhouette
stand beneath the snow
let me get a good look at you

In The Snow - Through The Strip

Craig's Brother (9) - Fallen (Master.2)

I remember that day 7 years ago when I first saw you
that look in your eyes lit up my life
you gave me a reason to carry on

now you're gone my world has shattered
and I am torn apart without you
my little Ray

you were so loyal and caring
you were everything to me 
you guided me through the dark
your eyes so bright
your love so unconditional

this place feels so empty now you're gone
you were my only ray of sun

my heart died the day they took you away from me
I just wish they took me instead of you

I miss you though you will always be a part of me
I miss you though you'll be forever in my heart
