This year's productivity has been sparse, due to circumstances beyond my control, but I finally got around to doing something that I'd wanted to do for a while.
As It Were is a set of "talk-rock" pieces, with a couple of instrumental mood-thingies thrown in, short and not-so-sweet.
The vocals are recitations of free verse, only ever accidentally rhyming, and avoiding resemblance to "rap."
I considered an album with a bunch o' talkin' potentially tedious or self-muddling, so I not only included the instrumental pieces, but kept its duration concise at under a half-hour.
