Milagros: A Full album. I forgot to post most of it in the past two months, my apologies.

“Sunscreen” - Swimmingpool The Band



Download the Album, Milagros, here: http://www.mediafire.com/?6gg9rmm9v6xod6h



In the hard stretches of one of the many heat-waves this summer, I wrote Sunscreen. It remains one of my favorites as it’s somewhat punchier/more accessible than some of my other work on the album. 


It was also the first song I recorded with found-sound sampled beats (mostly me kicking things, hitting things or clapping). The lyrics are simple and very straight forward. Beyond that, it’s all interwoven guitars and vocals. I play everything on this song (as well as the whole album). 


Milagros grew out of a frustrated period of writer’s block and, though five songs long, as a running length of a short LP (30+ minutes). I consider it to be a full album in its pacing, structure and pieces. I am very happy with the end result and I hope that you enjoy it as well. 


Let me know what you think!


A special thanks again to divespell who helped me come up with the album title. Go follow him. 



The tracklisting (with links to the previous songs) is below:



  1. Witnesses

  2. Chocolate

  3. Stephen

  4. Halloween

  5. Sunscreen


As for my other recent releases (click to download each album):




The Lyrics are below. 



“come over tonight
it’s too hot outside
in the day it’s too bright
the sidewalks are full
of strangers
And I feel small 
I feel like I’m being watched 


It gets hard
to wake up in the morning
I don’t want to be alone
with my dreams
they get hard for me”

Unquestionably believe that which you said. Your favorite reason seemed
to be on the web the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I
certainly get irked while people think about worries that they just don't know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks
