"Forget about cool" is a short, diverse EP. I've taken a lot of care with the lyrics - click on the songs to see them.
----------------------------
The first song, "Armchair activist blues", is a satirical country-blues song. I'm taking the piss out of a heap of different people, including myself. We all have a bit of the armchair activist in us, don't we?
"Pure loving" is an alternative-pop-rock song about my feelings for my wife, and also a few thoughts on attempts to commoditize love. I've done quite a bit of work on this since Yesterday's Conversation.
"Very confused and isolated" is a alternative-folk-rock song (in the spirit of Nick Cave and others) about how people can end up in terrible situations and incredibly messed-up through no fault of their own.
"Forget about cool" is a fun jazz-rock-punk song with a big, self-indulgant guitar solo (sorry about that). I've realised recently that the idea of 'cool' is just such a crap one - hope you like the lyrics!
----------------------------
I think the quality of these recordings is much better than on my other album here. I'd appreciate any opinions, comments or advice...

Please stay courteous and be sincere (for good and bad!). It can be an interesting read for others, but only if it is constructive and doesn't disparage the artist.
Please write about the music itself and don't be too hard on the sound quality of some demos.
