Daniel Siconnelli Just saw today (never too late) new music by Josh Marberry. There was nothing else to do than buy now. Listening to it now and it is really great and inspiring. Thanks for another great piece of art. Favorite track: Leaving.

Connor Meeks I’ve followed Josh & his work ever since the Lambency days, Home is the natural progression of his individual style & it’s yet another of his works I’ll replay for years and years to come. I’ll always be grateful to his music for getting me to where I am now. Thanks old friend, from your old Scottish pal Connor Favorite track: The Woods.

2.	TV Light 08:55	lyrics
I just don't wanna go yet I know this is borrowed time I know this is borrowed time with you I've been using what's left now Little movies Can't finish a song I'm hiding inside a television light The engines whine Sleep away that runway I was attached to you One dark room to the next one I was attached to you I just don't wanna go yet I know this is borrowed time I know this is borrowed time with you I've been using what's left now Little movies Can't finish a song I'm hiding inside a television light The engines whine Sleep away that runway I was attached to you One dark room to the next one I was attached to you I'm hiding inside a television light
3.	Home With The Undead 06:08	lyrics
A trailer full of TV light shines down on both my eyelids Send my cellphone through the air Or keep it on silent And lock myself away for days I'm lost in a way And I'll do what I can just to hear you say something I know I didn't borrow Like I've borrowed everything else I'm lost in a way And I'll do what I can just to hear you say something I know I didn't borrow Like I've borrowed everything else I have made my home with the undead I never meant to I just cared for what they said when I met them Are you feeling down let's talk about it Are you feeling down let's talk about it I have made my home with the undead I never meant to I just cared for what they said when I met them Are you feeling down let's talk about it A trailer full of TV light shines down on both my eyelids Send my cellphone through the air Or keep it on silent And lock myself away for days Cause I'm lost in a way And I'll do what I can just to hear you say something I know I didn't borrow Like I've borrowed everything else I'm lost in a way I'll do what I can just to hear you say something I know I didn't borrow Like I've borrowed everything else I have made my home with the undead I never meant to I just cared for what they said when I met them Are you feeling down let's talk about it Are you feeling down let's talk about it I have made my home with the undead I never meant to I just cared for what they said when I met them Are you feeling down let's talk about it Are you feeling down let's talk about it
4.	Dog Under The House 11:37	lyrics
A screen is all I've got with everything that's moved on There's a choir of little drums outside They know it's been a silent ride home with you There's a heavy, orange, sick light circling over me And I hear 'em outside (I hear 'em outside) Drumming hollows in their bodies (drumming hollows in their bodies) I know when the well runs out, I'm the dog under the house A flame on it's way out We were two islands Two eyelids dream of when I used to chase you around Had I known I wouldn't have Then I wouldn't have lost before I started I held up a crawlspace With a lot unsaid when the lines went dead Lines went dead, but I'm headphone safe (Headphone safe) I tried, but it can't be the same as it was I'll hide my face in the things I can make The work I can save and take a drive You and I watch movies through the night I lie awake and I'm still here Just a cage of bones left standing here for you I lie awake and I'm still here Just a cage of bones left standing here for you (Dog under the house) I'll be the dog under the house I'm the flame that's almost out But I'm me I'll be the dog under the house I'm the flame that's almost out But I'm me I know when the well runs out, I'm the dog under the house A flame on it's way out We were two islands Two eyelids dream of when I used to chase you around Had I known, I wouldn't have Then I wouldn't have

6.	Leaving 05:23	lyrics
It just cost everything to be ok I've tracks ahead Forget me today Leaving isn't in me, love I made it stay I made it stay I've got light from the screen The dreams to bother me Strangers tell the microphone to tell my head to sleep Leaving isn't in me, love I made it stay I made it stay The 18th floor fell in I got the wind knocked out like we talked about it It wouldn't hurt so much, but I stay a while a ghost Stay a while a ghost Stay a while a ghost Stay a while a ghost It just cost everything to be ok The river drain baptized what I can't wash away Leaving isn't in me, love, I made it stay I made it stay I have a light on me now I have light from the screen And I have memories to bother me How I stay behind if I walk away Leaving isn't in me, love I made it stay I made it stay The 18th floor fell in I got the wind knocked out like we talked about it It wouldn't hurt so much but I stay a while a ghost Stay a while a ghost Stay a while a ghost Stay a while a ghost Stay a while a ghost Stay a while a ghost
7.	The Woods 08:47	lyrics
They came and shut the cable down today Close the door, sway right, face down To dig up relics from the carpet and Fall asleep without a friend I've been hiding by the river town singing bridge again I told collections I was sorry, "Try your best don't worry I'll be back up on my feet soon". Do you have some time to talk about death Do you have some time to talk about death A lot of things have really passed away And I just wanted to be loved Even though you called, I don't want you to feel like you gotta stay If we're being honest, I know I sold myself in a million ways If ever you mean what you say, or not, I'll be ok Tell me, would you stay if I failed at something great Tell me, would you stay Sometimes I let the movie menu play Tell me, would you stay There's really not much of me left today Tell me would you change if nobody else would stay the same Lay my head down in the woods tonight Like a fort when I was young Keep the company of ghosts and care way too much What they all think of me What they all think of me Home would move on and I just wanted it to stay Wanted it to stay A lot of things have really passed away And I just wanted to be loved Even though you called, I don't want you to feel like you gotta stay If we're being honest, I know I sold myself in a million ways If ever you mean what you say, or not, I'll be ok Tell me, would you stay if I failed at something great Tell me, would you stay Sometimes I let the movie menu play Tell me, would you stay There's really not much of me left today Tell me would you stay if home was like a chase Running from the wings Lay my head down in the woods tonight Like a fort when I was young Keep the company of ghosts and care way too much But they don't think of me They don't think of me Home would move on and I just wanted it to stay Wanted it to stay
8.	Left Like Keys 13:07	lyrics
I just don't wanna go yet I know this is borrowed time (I know this is borrowed time) I'm thinking of the house Walk a halo in the ground I'm thinking of the car The one that burned like homes before it I'm thinking of the yard The one, I stood there til dark I'll be in the crater Trash Mountain, the vapor With shovelware inside Apartments, old wine, love a ghost It's got me holding on (holding on) And don't you know you're all I've ever known You got me holding on (holding on) I'm thinking of the house My hands, they cover my mouth Can't let the sounds come out The place is empty now I'll keep what's left like keys I'll drop them at my feet I'll keep what's left like keys I'll drop them at my feet Like flares we'll never sleep Like flares we'll never sleep I'll keep what's left like keys I'll drop them at my feet Like flares we'll never sleep I'll keep what's left like keys I'll drop them at my feet Like flares we'll never sleep Like flares we'll never sleep Ok, I'll chase anything That looks like my anything With shovelware inside Apartments, old wine, love a ghost It's got me holding on (holding on) And don't you know you're all I've ever known You got me holding on (holding on) Ok I'll chase anything That looks like my anything With shovelware inside Apartments, old wine, love a ghost It's got me holding on (holding on) And don't you know you're all I've ever known You got me holding on To the shadow where you stood And all your things are gone I'll keep what's left like keys I'll drop them at my feet Like flares we'll never sleep Like flares we'll never sleep I'll keep what's left like keys I'll drop them at my feet Like flares we'll never sleep I'll keep what's left like keys I'll drop them at my feet Like flares we'll never sleep Like flares we'll never sleep
9.	Summer Heat 11:07	lyrics
I wish I could say to all the ceilings: "It's water under the bridge" with all the drownings I saved I wish you the best life, a spotless mind I've gone to find mine I've gone to find mine With so much gone, I need there to be a light Save me from the Summer Heat As I'm running from the wings of a house that would eat me I'll hide in the towns, on tapes, the sink Save me from the guilt that eats as I throw up the white sheet I'm the dog under the house I'll keep what's left like keys Dropping flares at my feet Like fort when I was young Save me from Save me from the summer heat As I'm running from the wings of a house that would eat me I'll hide in the towns, on tapes, the sink Save me from the guilt that eats as I throw up the white sheet (As I throw up the white sheet) I'm the dog under the house I'll keep what's left like keys Dropping flares at my feet Like a fort when I was young Save me from

about

Dear Friend,

It's been one of those mornings where my restlessness got me awake. It's a few days before I'm supposed to be putting this out there for others to hear, and I'm sitting in front of "Home With The Undead" flickering on my screen. I'll be turning thirty-three on eleven-eleven, twenty-twenty and Home will be in your room with you the way it has been with me for over five years. I can argue that these sounds began seven years ago, or even ten... and somehow more believably, from the first five years of my life.

On my screen I see a container. There are lines and planes like compartments and barriers. For the past few weeks I have been filling these spaces with little important things to represent the songs I have written in this "place". What I see rolling and sputtering on these walls, shining bright and fading in spectacular ways, are my memories. I'm most of the way through two of these now. That puts me just after the trains in Home With The Undead, and I decided to stop for a while and write to you. What I'm looking at here, in front of me, is the best I could do to make an image of my heart. These are not scattered things.

If you're listening now...
In a crater at some world's end, may this music find you like an old and true friend.

- Josh

Far Above The Pines

A totally under-appreciated gem. Very few projects have captured the sense of dusty melancholia and nostalgia that Dust Sculptures evoke, and this album is seminal in that regard. Dieseltone

I've been following the works of Josh since the Spikey Drummer years. Then Dust Sculptures and lately his most recent work Home. Both Dust Sculptures and Josh's Home are a most for any prog music lover. There are so many great things and emotions on this one. Get it! Daniel Siconnelli
