With His Usual Melodic Power

Awhile back, the band was thinking about some new songs. We even started working on a couple. I'll post the fragments here, in the form of these video clips, starting with this one.

This song was going to be seriously bad-ass. I can just imagine Dave's intense drumming over this. And wouldn't it be awesome to hear Jim Teacher letting loose some fiery verse? Fuzzy really rips it with his usual melodic power, while I just play some simple, choppy chords. It's a pretty cool progression, though, just descending along the fretboard with some sort of inverted power chord thing I do.

Soooo....

So yeah, forget the whole ITunes thing, at least for now. However, as me and Br'er Stephen's recent heisting of a shitload of MPS "Tougher" CDs around towns makes me recall, we still have a ton of copies of our music available in traditional formats, i.e. CDs.

If you want to get copies of any of our records, just send me an e-mail and we shall mek it happen.

Music for Spaces

Evan Wilder sent me this awesome video with David Byrne talking about how architecture influenced music.






I figure the MPS made music for CDs. And for certain basements in and around Philadelphia.

Go figure.

MPS on ITunes

We are finishing up the details on this, but soon you'll be able to get the great majority of the multi-purpose solution canon on ITunes. Stay tuned...

Been Awhile

It's been awhile since the band broke up. Then we practiced once, last October or so, but that was pretty much it. But, lo and behold, there's still this Web site, so I figure this would be as good a place as any to get some of the old multi-purpose solution mothers to write about what is going on, what we like, what we hate, blah blah.

So tune back in here for irregularly updated posts about music and shit. And read Brother Stephen's blog at stereophile, which is updated pretty regularly.

Blah-zam!!
