OCTOBER 2004: It's been over year since I've graced this site. Feels kind of like someone past away. The song that droans is a rendition of a song I've been kicking around for a year. I want to say something to everyone but I'm not sure what to say other than that new material is in the works. I'm in a place I've never been before and I really haven't been able to express the past year very much. Slowly but surely the words will surface.. I know that now. A new album will find it's way here in 2005. "the best marks the end." I'm not ready to die yet.
AUGUST 2003: It's been a while. The album "Doubtful if Anything" is now available for $6 through the mail. If you're interested in purchasing the album please e-mail bandjcss@hotmail.com . Although I've been quiet, I've been far from slacking off. I've been at work on a lot of aother projects.

The newest of which is my (as-of-yet-untitled) techno project. Be sure and demo them by checking out the "Thre3" link in the main menu of palelikeyou.tk.

But I'm most excited about a new project we're calling "bitterblue". (By we I mean myself and ex-Muck drummer Jon. We're currently looking for a bassist and keyboardist. If you're interested e-mail scream4blue@hotmail.com .

And last but not least you're hearing a rendition of a clip of a new song entitled "So Imperfect" from pale like you. A rather different EP is in the works. The EP will tentatively contain: 1.So Imperfect 2. Doubtful if Anything (Album mix) 3.Invisible and another song which is yet untitled.. Stay tuned...
LATE APRIL 2003: Well as you can see, I've loaded tons new stuff.. album artwork.. studio pics... and the brand new finished single "IF I WAIT" which you can download by right clicking here. I'm still not sure when the album is coming out.. but show up at the MAY 10TH SHOW and who knows... (you might be able to get a copy in your hands..) We'll see...
EARLY APRIL 2003: I have to start by saying that I finished all 14 tracks of the new album "Doubtful if Anything" last month. However after listening excessively to it I decided that I may redo all the lead vocal tracks.. also I'm writing a title track for the album as well as a corresponding secret track... both of which may or may not surface on the final cut. The artwork is also non existent, (I'm still indifferent toward a concept..) As I said before.. I'm taking my time..
FEBRUARY 2003:I'm glad to say that I've put down 9 of the 13 tracks for the new album. I feel that there's no rush to complete it. I don't want to reveal too much. The new name is PALE LIKE YOU. The working title for the album is "Doubtful If Anything".
There's a definite theme. The over all sound is very different. I think it's more comfortable.
BE SURE TO COME THE SHOW AT THE OUTHOUSE on FEBRUARY 6TH!
SEE THE SHOWS SECTION FOR DIRECTIONS AND MORE INFO.
That's all for now. See you at show!

JANUARY 2003: HAPPY NEW YEAR! Well as you all can see, there isn't much to see here. That's because I've been putting all my time and effort into my other band the Muckruckers. We've nearly completed our new self-titled album. Unlike other albums, I contributed my writing as well as composing on 2 tracks "Sick and Tired", and "Own Up". Check those out when the album comes out in few months. Also the Jizon and myself have been hard at work on the new flash Muck site. I can't say much, but it'll be worth the wait. The site will launch with the new self-titled album which I single handedly did all the composition, design, and execution for. So check it out.
Now it's time to get back to all of this. I've begun to write again even more since the new songs I wrote and introduced a few months ago. Two songs, "Permaneance" and "Don't Give Up", are completed and you'll be able to check them out on mp3.com very soon. At least five more new songs have been written besides what I've already put up on the lyrics page, which mean new album plans soon. The gallery is being sorted and will be up soon also, but will grow over time. For now, enjoy the mp3.com tracks and don't forget to come to my cafe nite show on FEBRUARY 6th, 2003 (which you can find out more about @ lgouthouse.com That's all. Late -D.
11.20.02: I'd like to start off by thanking everyone who made it out the show on Nov. 9th! It was a lot of fun! The next show is looking to be @ the Outhouse early next year. I don't have plans on where and when to record; I'm still writing new material. However I'd like to show progress and insight, so I've created a gallery of the work I'm doing in the theme of the new album. Be sure and check that new section out! Also the mp3's I uploaded a month ago are finally up so be sure and hit those up too. Sign the guestbook and let me know what you think!

11.06.02:
I've put off even trying to play any shows for quite a while. I've been taking time to bask in the fame that my latest release, "For Your Yearbook" has given me. (That and college...)
But now I've had time to reflect, revise, and lots of other re-words (that sound thought provoking and intelligent), not mention write a few tunes for my next album. 7 to be exact, and I'm hoping to have a demo out sooner than later.
Enjoy the new site. More fun to come.
-D.
