  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    You get the Cold Calls record, plus digital download, and you get a VERY limited edition ORIGINAL PAINTING (NOT a print!). I made 20 simultaneous, slightly different, conceptually identical watercolor paintings to accompany this album, based on the original Cold Calls painting featured on the LP cover and the second track "Long Eyes". Your painting is 12" x 12" watercolor & charcoal on 140lb/300GSM acid-free paper, signed as an "edition" limited to 20! All are slightly different (paint drops, lines, slight color variations), but each one has the same content.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Cold Calls via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
    ships out within 7 days
    edition of 20  6 remaining

      $40 USD or more 

     

  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    At this tier you get the record, download, one of the 20 paintings, and finally a singed test press. The test presses were sent to me by Gold Rush Vinyl, and are in a blank white sleeve. This is essentially another copy of the record, and it has one secret little error (I won't tell you when, and it's easy to miss).

    Includes unlimited streaming of Cold Calls via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

Living off the fat of the land, taking things that they don’t deserve
There they go patting all their friends on the back
I could never live like that
Me, I’ll never learn to relax
And babe, I’m gonna work ‘til I die
Cause I’ve got this magnetic field in my head
Singing there will be time enough to sleep when we’re dead
We’ll sleep when we’re dead

Caught you gazing up at the moon
Tryin’ to make sense of your life
And how to carry that heart that’s all busted and bruised
On account of all the shit you’ve been through
Me, i’ll never learn to relax,
And babe, I’m gonna work ‘til I die
Cause I’ve got this magnetic field in my head
Singing there will be time enough to sleep when we’re dead
We’ll sleep when we’re dead

May take longer and it
Sure seems harder but we
Keep on walking, and we’ll get there in enough time
Draw that line from memory and then you just
Get out of your bed and stop wasting away

Catch me slowing down you let me know
Find me giving in you pull me out of that hole
Hear me breaking all my promises
You keep me honest and we
we’ll sleep when we’re dead
