Various Eggs realize that their first release will set the expectations for all releases that follow.  With this in mind, their initial E.P. reflects a wide breadth of influences.  If the next release were a horror movie soundtrack, it could be anticipated by this E.P.  If the next release were a cover of the entirety of Neil Young’s Tonight’s The Night, this could be anticipated by the E.P. as well.  And somewhere between these extremes lie Various Eggs.

Lyrics:

I need your honey scent. Your amber brown tone. 
And me, I must depend upon your passing glance to get by. 

It seems that then, I should wait til when you want me to come home. 
Or be that man who just casts about to parts unneeded/unknown. 

And I should stop before these thoughts get the best of me. 
Before I sit on the edge of my bed and I recall it all as if it was a dream. 

…What I mean… it’s like the scene from when we were at your house 
and you left marks upon my throat. 

…Or that love note we read and we laughed and wept. 
Well yeah that was mean, but who was to know. 

…Your sweet white peach... we planted the seed 
and you took a bet. You said that nothing would grow. 

And I should stop before these thoughts consume the whole of me. 
Before I sit on the edge of my bed and relive it all as if it was a dream. 

What I mean is … I need your honey scent. Your amber brown tone. 
And me, I must depend upon your passing glance to get by. 

It seems that then, I should wait til when you want me to come home. 
Or be that man who just casts about to parts unneeded/unknown. 

And I should stop before these thoughts make a fool of me 
Before I sit on the edge of my bed and I want it all as if it was a dream. 

What I mean is that you’re facing me, you put your hand on my cheek 
and say “you poor thing, you need a home.” 
… … 

I wake up it’s morning. 
I’m so much better now. 
So much better now.

COMET GAIN return with their seventh album “Paperback Ghosts” on July 7th, their first since 2011’s critically acclaimed “Howl of The Lonely Crowd”. Recorded at Soup Studios with producer Simon Trought at the helm, and inspired by the psycho-geography of walks in North London woods and in the forgotten grey hinterland of the city’s back streets, “Paperback Ghosts” comes soaked in autumn melancholy. Tender-hearted but not miserable, defiant but not angry, it maintains the delicate balance that has always been Comet Gain’s strength.

"Long After Tonite's Candles Are Blown" captures a moment in time, old friends together on one of those magic nights that sweep into morning, everyone afraid to leave the dancing and the drinking... all nights merging into this one special romantic night that has to be held onto with sad determination because Heaven is a lie... joyous glorious ghosts seen in the half light, still holding on to each other long after they have died.

The cat’s out of the bag… Our new 3 track E.P. is coming out on November 3rd! It’s also up and live on Bandcamp already because, well, I messed up.  Anyway, I’m thrilled to finally have released Five Four Girls. 

We started working on these songs at Rabid Ears Recording back in 2019 with the intention of releasing them as this E.P. From those recording sessions, only the drum tracking for the title track has made it to this release. Tricia and I recorded (or re-recorded) everything else at our own homegrown studio that we refer to as Mushroomtopia. The reason for that nickname is obvious if you’ve ever seen my moss-covered yard after a rainstorm.

"Five Four Girls" and "To Jenny" are songs written as a character.  They aren't me.  They aren't Tricia. But, it was fun to go to such unsavory places for some pretty creepy songs.

"Drone Bomb You" is an attempt to write something of a geo-political song.  And, boy, that is a difficult thing to write.  The song ended up a critique of another songwriter's attempt to write an urgent song about the state of politics. Kyle from Book of Wyrms guests on lead guitar on this song!

I thank Tricia for continuing to work with me and for enthusiastically jumping into the role of production partner. I thank Allen Bergendahl for his ongoing support, friendship, expertise and advice. I thank Kyle Lewis for many hours of shredding. I thank Laura Manchester for embracing my visual ideas and running with them to fantastic results. And thank you to Todd, Ben and Jake; “Five Four Girls” wouldn’t be what is without you.
