It is the case that every album calls for a new band. This has to do with how I write songs. Albums create an environment not unlike a book, and the narrative voice has all to do with how the musicians ‘read’ my work out loud.

This voice involves lyrics, of course, but also speaking in guitar tongues – I use different guitars for each album, and amplifiers. In performance, were it not so inconvenient relative to the rush of visionary motion, I would use different guitars as well, actually, for nearly every song.

--And so now there is The Last Canyon Band for the album that will be released during October in 2006.
You can get this album at CDBaby or at Holyranger.com by mid-October. (Instead of the Old Iguana's liner notes you will find a selected discography and bibliography covering forty years of albums and books. The selection follows the musty trail into omen dirt. The Iguana decided that the spooked five low tracks spoke for themselves.)

The sound is quite different from that of previous bands. (Although washing near to the one for “Down On The Spirit Farm,” it is yet much louder and neo-wilderness with an ocular contemporary sine wave). The audio liquid flame freezes in ominous grit. --The working title of this album is “Omen Dirt.”
