Welcome to the Train Wreck. Life is strange, people are stranger. Dan and Ted sit down every week (just about) to talk to each other, and whoever happens to drop by. We talk life, philosophy, ideas, and wrestle down that age old question of why. Of course we tell a lot of stupid stories along the way to prove how we learned those valuable lessons. We hope you come away from The Train Wreck LB with gratitude for life, and curiosity in your fellow humans. Wamp Wamp

'Enlightenment, understood in the widest sense as the advance of thought, has always aimed at liberating human beings from fear and installing them as masters. Yet the wholly enlightened earth is radiant with triumphant calamity.' —Dialectic of Enlightenment, Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, one true God. Amen. The times are dark, and pestilence, famine, war, and death rule הַעוֹלָם הַזֶּ֗ה. To listen to the still, small voi ...

I was overhearing this guy talking on the phone directly outside my window, and I was playing these chords over and over. The two combined in my head. Sometimes we just need a little bit of hope.This is the second single for the upcoming Rose with Teeth album.LYRICS:"It's a huge trauma thing with him—I'm not a therapist."There's nothing in our bloo…

The Russian and Chinese governments have been profoundly involved in the global opioid trade, as has the United States government. Chinese and Russian actors have been known to mass-produce carfentanil, a highly potent synthetic opioid, not only as a drug and cutting agent, but as a chemical weapon. Carfentanil and other fentanyl derivatives are th…

Sunny Sheu was a Taiwanese immigrant to Queens, NY who was the victim of a mortgage fraud. In the process of attempting to secure justice for himself, he came across evidence allegedly documenting improprieties on the part of the judge on his case who refused to return his house to him even after the fraudsters were arrested.After compiling this ev…

I made this over the course of about 5-6 hours, just to have some fun and make myself less mental health. This is sort of a teaser for the new directions Rose with Teeth is going in, although at the same time it's a lot sillier, more lighthearted, more guitarless, and less focused than anything that'll be on the next album.•Lyrics:What is here agai…

All three of my guitars—my electric, my acoustic, and my classical—are broken in some way. This sucks a lot, because everyone's stuck inside due to COVID-19 and I wanna try to capitalise on that by making music. Plus immediately before making this song I realised that I have no fucking clue where I put the screw and spring that keeps the piezo atta…

Last month I found out that I still have markers for Lyme disease. I was prescribed antibiotics, and when I began taking them, it hurt. A lot. Living with various mental, physical, and neurological problems has not only impacted my daily life but shown me how badly the world fails to take care of the people who need help the most.I took musical ins…

I wrote this on 21 December 2019, worried about whether I'd be able to visit one of my friends again and about whether I'd be able to see another friend at all.It really does seem like the world ended in 2012 in some sense. Back when I was a kid, I could see myself doing things and living in 2012, but never after that. That seemed to be the cutoff …

This is an attempt at an effective summation of how it often feels to live in my body in this world with this history. Such pressures and experiences often cause the death drive to become stronger. This may cause some people to "perceive themselves as being driven by internal fears, but banish those thoughts into bottomless pit of eternally repress…

This is a straightforward revolutionary song I wrote in Ladino and English. I found that writing in Ladino, even though I don't have a great command of the language, is extraordinarily fun. I'm hoping people will continue to sing it for a long time.I'm releasing it early thanks to the strike on Iran. No war but the class war.•Lyrics:En la marcha de…

This is a remake of a song (original: https://clyp.it/tmsvewpb) I made for my friend Nicole a couple years ago to encourage them. I decided to rerecord it to test out my Line 6 Variax. It's also available as a general pick-me-up./•Lyrics:I believe in you. You can do it!I believe in you. You can do it!!I believe in you! You can do it!!!And if you do…

Three things converged: one, my friend Yael gave me the idea for the title of this track. Two, I challenged myself to write "math noise neofolk w/ blast beats and occasional shrieks". Three, I wanted to write a song loosely around the theme of exploding head syndrome.My lyrics here are more nonsensical and disjointed than usual, in part because my …

I initially made this track over the course of about 10 minutes as a sort of affectionate pastiche of blackened crust bands who have thoughtful and intelligent lyrics shrieked in such a manner that they're incomprehensible and you have to read the booklet to get what's being said, as the music proper is made more for cathartic sonic violence than a…

I wanted to make a neofolk song this morning, so I did. It took me 3 hours. Proud of myself.A little existential song for weary times. Like recessions.•Lyrics:This is the world that time has forgot.I am the cream that's left behind to rot.We are the ones that look for an outbut we get thrown roundabout.This is the way we have to live:all that we ha…

Sometimes I get flashbacks. This is part and parcel of having C-PTSD.One of them came after a nightmare.For some reason, the "predicate event" (thing that I remember happening in the dream, but which never happened irl) was that I had viewed a video of a trans woman being murdered outside of my apartment.All my friends were posting on Twitter about…

John Bolton, Trump, and the rest of their fetid administration are pushing for war with Iran. As of the writing of this, all non-emergency State Department personnel are being recalled from Iraq. So I got really angry and recorded this in approx. 20 minutes. It's wonky and the timbrel is off-beat but [insert ms paint star with "i tried" in Comic Sa…

Dan and Ted talk nihilism. Ted literally almost craps his pants. There's a lot to be said about nihilism and we didn't get to everything but I really hope that some of the ideas put forth here help people figure it out. It's really complicated to try and bore down into why it is we are the way we are as humans. If you have some feedback hit us up o…

A Train Wreck about a Train Wreck. This week was mostly about me and Dan explaining the things that drive us nuts, or have made us upset, or anything frustrating, or ridiculous. Ted went off the rails this week, way too much energy. On the bright side it made for some pretty entertaining talk even though his vocal chords are pretty much tapped. Tha…

My good friend Alen came into town and I couldn't miss the opportunity to sit down and do an episode. We talked about mental health, approaching life, searching for passion, writing and we tied almost all of it into our love of gaming.

As they recruited people to fight against the despotism of Mussolini, they would sing this hymn to rally the people.This song emphasises the universal human longing for freedom and equality.Today, the torch is carried by those who wish to overthrow the oligarchy and its evils.Dedicated to the bra…

'History is a tissue of base and cruel acts in the midst of which a few drops of purity sparkle at long intervals.'—Simone Weil, 'The Need for Roots''And all the time—such is the tragi-comedy of our situation—we continue to clamour for those very qualities we are rendering impossible. You can hardly open a periodical without coming across the state…

'We have created God in order to save the Universe from nothingness, for all that is not consciousness and eternal consciousness, conscious of its eternity and eternally conscious, is nothing more than appearance. There is nothing truly real save that which feels, suffers, pities, loves, and desires, save consciousness; there is nothing substantial…

The word 'סָרִיס' ('saris') refers in the Mishnah to someone who was assigned male at birth but later becomes female.I've struggled with my gender identity all my life. I first came out as genderfluid when I was 14, and then as a trans girl at around 16. I only started transitioning last year.This song is about those struggles, including some very …

'[Her] vocals are a bit distant. But it's eerie that way.'It seem[s] like the sorta song you'd hear at the end of a party when you're stoned and drunk and everybody you know is long gone. It's that song you hear when you realize you're alone at 3 a.m. and everyone is passed out but you.'If it was in the soundtrack to a movie it would show the prota…

Panic, anxiety, fear, uncertainty, and doubt have plagued my life as far as I can remember. They follow me wherever I go. With others and alone, speaking and silent. And like some unspeakable horror, it encroaches upon me.•Lyrics:There is no refuge in the vineyard of the Lᴏʀᴅ.There is no fleeing to the kingdom of Annwfn.She told me to find and embr…

This is the song that was written for democratic socialist Salvador Allende's campaign for President of Chile in 1970.As Chilean society broke down in the months before the coup, 'Venceremos' became the unofficial national anthem.The great Chilean folk singer Victor Jara wrote different lyrics for the song referring directly to Allende's 'Unidad Po…

A very personal song for me, this recounts how I was raped as a child, my feelings of guilt, fear, shame, and pain that I've had ever since, and the debilitating effects of that trauma—nightmares, psychoses, depression—on my life.A song that I wrote not merely to express my rage and sadness, but for my own healing, and hopefully for others who've h…
