Name Sayers

“MANTLES” ▪️ 5/26/18 via Old Faithful Records

A brief cover in honor of Lesley Gore, whose indelibly defiant song “You Don’t Own Me” debuted on this day 58 years ago, when Lesley was 17. In a 2005 interview, she said of this song that it “has a new meaning every time you sing it.” Give it a try sometime and you’ll see what she means. It’s an incredibly powerful statement and I’m so glad we have it. 

This version features atmospherics from my infernal machine, the Jitter Getter.

This one’s for all my orphans out there haunting this goofy colonizer holiday. #thanksgiving #soundscape #hellscape # intonarumori #jittergetter #cats

Name Sayers Gets Randy With the New Moon

Dark rock quintet practices sacred sex under the lunar reset

“When I see my guys playing with the level of intensity they do, I’m forced to ask myself, ‘Have I written any bullshit? Am I making them play anything that’s not true and real?’ It makes us all have a more shock-proof shit detector. It’s got be as true as it can be and ‘New Moon’ is an example of that.”
