Track 7 from the euphoreador late 2009 release called 'adrift'. When idealizing love this can lead to many problems such as madness and severe misconceptions that don't exist in the real world but only in the idyllic. Also when fantasizing on past experiences one can be led down a round of escalating depression. However when we face the truth about love it may be painful at points but also the most redeeming aspect to existence. (A special thanks to Jovonn Mercier for the use of her great photos of the lovely ladies!!)

'clear the air' This is track 13 from ChineSeXXX American Idolatry, the september 2008 euphoreador release. The song is about how we sometimes loose site of our true feelings and our love, replacing them with anger or blindness and how we need to clear the air and start anew.

"slum lord' This is track 3 from the September 2008 euphoreador release entitled ChineSeXXX American Idolatry. The song is about standing firm in the resolution of who we are and not pretending what we aren't. Also not being afraid to find out who we are. The video is a new rehashing of video that was used in some Confession of Faith performances. This video also contains the decapitation of a chicken.

"Cold" This unreleased Confession of Faith song was performed during the time period that the album "The Sacrament" was the newest material. The video is pretty dark but good in the fact the song has never been released. The performance was in the winter of 1993 at Gustavus Adolphus college in St. Peter, Minnesota and was for some type of gay rights support concert.

'Hallowed' What is amusing here is the school's mascot and decorations as well as the very standard guitar solo that is heard before COF performs. This is very Confession of Faith, dark lighting, the intense, aural, industrial cascade. This song is from The Sacrament ep. The crowd seems very intense due to the fact that this was performed in the High School lunchroom for the 1993 Jefferson High School Battle of the Bands and most of the students probably hadn't seen or heard music like this.

This is Confession of Faith performing to victory at the 1993 Minnesota Highschool Battle of the Bands at the Mirage. COF took sole first place. 2 bands tied for second place and 2 bands tied for third but COF one by themselves. What is amusing is that after COF performed, they immediately left the competition only finding out that they had won while they were returning their gear at home. The prize was free studio recording time. The songs we played were 'Hallowed' and 'Dominatrix'.

This is is an amusing juxtapose of Confession of Faith showing school spirit to help collect food. What makes this funny is how out of place the music is to the environment, from the thanking of the band before us (All the President's Men - the first band I formed) by saying all of their names wrong, to the introduction of the captains of school spirit. Another amusing element are the areas of the performance that are recorded over by news clips. This is a classic COF live performance. Also included are jeers and insults hurled at us the musicians like most of our performances. 'Dominatrix' is the song we played. This is a rather industrial/metal tune of ours.

This is a short film that uses the Confession of Faith song 'Caliban' from the fall 1999 COF album 'StillBorn' made by Mitch Lusas, Jason Richards and Norm Mintle in 2007. The film is a great look at pressure and control and who holds the button of power.

This is the first poemovie for the new poetry show i-outlaw. Bob Marcacci and Josh Hinck bring you a very current poetry show scoured from the internet with a wide variety of verse, music, and sounds to create something truly worth listening to.

This video was worked on for The Assembly project for Indyish.com. Different artists each had a week to do their part of the video. Marielle Quesney made the video and euphoreador did the sound and the music. The song is about how we have to believe in ourselves because we can't always depend on others to care.

The song is about how we sometimes yearn for those that we love but even if we feel down by this, there is still yet more pertaining to the rest of the world that is in more pain and needs much more of our sympathy than we. The video was a part of a longer video that I made for Precipice Dance Theater's performance called Burning at the Theatre de la Jeune Lune in Minneapolis in 2003.

This video was made in 2002 and then set to a newer song of mine. The song is about how we blame each other for our mistakes, never stopping to see that we are equally culpable. We don't try to see ourselves in the other, or strive to forgive them or us.

When a moment not perceived for what it is turns into ugliness. Even though beauty attempts to save the squandered impression, it has been lost to apathetic carelessness.

The Subterranean Poets performed an impromptu performance of this poem at an opening at Galerie Urs Meile in Beijing in late March/early April 2006. The video is only an excerpt of the piece itself. The Subterraneans that performed were Bob Marcacci, junKbox, Zhou Yu, Jack Raif.
