The Songs

1. Album cover for Flutterby
"Another White Dash" - Butterfly Boucher (Flutterby, 2002)

A sleek, melodic alt-rock track with a clean hook and a bright, propulsive feel.

2. Album cover for Boylan Heights

Midtempo indie rock with an open-road mood and a steady, lived-in chorus.

3. Album cover for Mountains - Singolo della Settimana
"Mountains" - Biffy Clyro (Mountains - Singolo della Settimana, 2008)

Big, cathartic guitar work drives this anthemic alternative track.

4. Album cover for Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (Deluxe Edition)
"Zero" - The Smashing Pumpkins (Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (Deluxe Edition), 1995)

A tight, snarling hard rock cut built around one of the band’s sharpest riffs.

Warm, rootsy rock with a patient pace and a reflective tone.

6. Album cover for St. Louis to Liverpool

A jagged, post-punk-influenced alternative song with a tense pulse.

9. Album cover for Rabbit Fur Coat

Gentle indie rock harmonies give this one a soft, intimate lift.

10. Album cover for Irresistible Bliss

Oddball, groove-forward alt-pop with a slinky bass line and a playful snap.

A pointed breakup song that pairs tight harmonies with a restrained punch.

12. Album cover for Tenacious D

A comic hard rock story song that plays like a mock-epic adventure.
