Grow Towards The LightJeffrey Alexander has always been into the cool, the weird, and the darkness. He has apparently been heavily dabbling in what the bands bio describes as the higher dimensions of cosmic free rock since I last hung out with him. I consider him a kind of scholar of outsider and avant garde music; over the years, hes run Secret Eye Records, been a member of Jackie O Motherfucker, Black Forest Black Sea, and managed to find a way to always remain genuinely
Jeffrey Alexander has always been into the cool, the weird, and the darkness.He has apparently been heavily dabbling in what the band’s bio describes as “the higher dimensions of cosmic free-rock” since I last hung out with him. I consider him a kind of scholar of outsider and avant-garde music; over the years, he’s run Secret Eye Records, been a member of Jackie O’ Motherfucker, Black Forest Black Sea, and managed to find a way to always remain genuinely excited about creating and performing music—which is not always the case with artists who keep at it for multiple decades.
Recorded in Oakland, CA during a two day stretch, "Grow Towards the Light" is Dire Wolves’ 4th official full-length album (not including the fifteen or so minor releases, bootlegs, and tapes they’ve put out over the years), and it’s the first without Lau Nau on main vocals. Taking over that role is the mystical Georgia Carbone, singing in her own invented language. Regarding the album title: you can really hear the sun pulsating through the space clouds, if you know what I mean. Jeffrey plays guitar and moog here, joined by Brian Lucas on bass, Sheila Bosco (from Faun Fables) on drums and piano, Arjun Mendiratta (Village of Spaces) on violin, and Taralie Peterson (Spires that in the Sunset Rise) on saxophone.
“Every Step Is Birth” features a dark, plodding groove. It sounds like the soundtrack to a sinister after-party in a place you suspect might actually be purgatory. I happen to know that Jeffrey Alexander followed the Dead around for the better part of the 1980s, and you can hear that influence here, but also shades of musical styles from all over the globe. “Every Step,” with its shrieking violin and Georgia’s haunting vocals, builds into a trance-like, cinematic climax. All of this becomes all the more impressive when you realize that every note of this recording was improvised.
Jeffrey tells me the album thematically tries to express the “interconnectedness of all things,” which makes perfect sense given even during some of the more unsettling jams and eerie melodies, this album always feels like a cohesive whole.
Stylistically this is really a broad, painterly album that comes together in a beautiful, unexpected way. I hope you enjoy "Grow Towards the Light." - By Marissa Nadler

Possibly a family heirloom?
Color: Black (Bifold), Color: Black (Bifold)
I ordered the Carhartt Men’s 700D Nylon Duck Wallet Bifold from Amazon, and it arrived very quickly. Once again, Amazon’s shipping and logistics proved that they are operating on some sort of wizard-level efficiency.
In a world where most of our important information lives on our cell phones, it’s still nice to carry a good old-fashioned wallet. I’m apparently not ready to trust my entire identity to a slab of glass and lithium, so I still carry a wallet with my ID, a few credit cards, and occasionally some cash (for those rare situations where cash is still king). When I saw this wallet on Amazon and recognized the Carhartt name, I ordered it without hesitation.
Opening the package revealed exactly what was advertised: a bifold wallet with RFID-blocking technology. While I have never been the victim of an RFID theft, I now feel confident that no one will be secretly scanning my debit card from across the room. Peace of mind is priceless.
Construction-wise, this wallet is made of sturdy nylon and feels like it could survive daily abuse without complaint. It looks like it can handle being sat on, dropped, stuffed in pockets, and generally mistreated like most wallets are. The nylon also provides a bit of water resistance, which is great for anyone who has ever been caught in the rain or spilled coffee on themselves.
Speaking of durability, this wallet feels like it’s built to last for years, possibly decades. I still have nylon wallets from high school floating around somewhere, so I wouldn’t be surprised if this one outlives me. At the very least, it should make it to retirement.
There’s definitely value here. In an age of digital everything, it’s still nice to have a physical wallet to carry physical things, and this one does the job well without trying to be fancy.
Would I recommend this wallet to others? Absolutely, especially if you’re a wallet person. It’s a trustworthy brand known for durability and value. Who knows, maybe in 20 years this will be a collectible, and I’ll be telling people, “Yeah, they don’t make wallets like this anymore.”

Nice Everyday Watch
Color: Silver-tone/White
The watchband was a bit too big and no one seems to be able to take out a link. Other than that, it's an excellent inexpensive everyday watch

Great watch, terrible band. Had two of these, both bands fell apart within weeks.
Color: Silver-tone/White, Color: Silver-tone/White
I had one just like this before. Great watch except they made one very bad change in the band which makes them fall apart within weeks. They don't tell time if you have to throw them in the garbage because of bands that fell apart.
I like it, a nice clean dial, works fine, and you can make it light up to check the time in the dark.
But some idiot made a terrible design change in the band. The center 1/3" of band is not twistable and falls apart easily. I've had two of these; both fell apart within weeks. The previous similar one that I owned without this design defect lasted me many years.

its a simple watch
Color: Silver-tone/White
This was a gift for my 80 Y/O father, the numbers are easy to read and the date (Numbered day only) will have to be adjusted if the month is 30 days instead of 31.
The wristband fit perfectly, so there was no adjustment of links. He has had it for a month now and forgot to take it off when he entered the shower, still works, but wont let that happen again.
If it lasts a year I will be happy, it wasn't expensive for a Timex and the silver color looked like silver.
