isadore and exray... who we are...

hello and good day to you... chiming in again is me, isadore the great! nah... i can't in good conscience steal that title from gonzo... he's the only true great one... 

anyway i'd like to talk a little bit about isadore and exray... my ban-... no! we're not a band... we're a duo! i think somewhere in the rulebook of bands that a band must consist of 3 or more members... i dunno... anybody have a copy? if so can you look it up & get back to me? i need to know... i mean, it sucks having to correct myself all the time... it would be loads easier if i could just let "isadore and exray? oh! it's my band" roll off my tongue or fingers when somebody asks us... but noooo... gotta be pc these days...

so yeah... to me, isadore and exray is many things... at it's heart, as it was in it's infancy, it is a dream at last reached... a loooong time goal that for one reason or another was always being thwarted... until now... it is real... we are real... & seriously, we're pretty freakin' awesome! & i'm not one for self-praise! anybody who knows me, knows that i'm not conceited... i'll tell anyone the straight up truth about how i feel about my music... & since this blog is new, i'll lay it out for y'all... i'm gonna write my own review of isadore and exray!

my review


- ok... first things first, i should get it out of the way... that i am probably fairly biased because... well... i wrote the songs... but i'll try my best to be impartial...

... ... ...


ok, i can't! we rock! i see us as like an almost freakishly-good garage band... only... we don't play in a garage, so that may disqualify us for that... bedroom band? it does have some sexy undertones... hm... anyway, i guess what i want to say is that, we're not out there trying to be the best... or perfect... we're just writing music that we love & doing the best we can to perform and record that music with what we have... we don't have any mega-producers (or any wannabe mega-producers) backing us up & we never will... we don't need or want that... we just want to be us... so when you listen to an isadore and exray song, you're listening to our hearts and our feelings... ok well, i write all the lyrics... & i'm pretty sure ex isn't 100 w/ me on some of my lyrical choices (i think i get a bit flowery & a little too silly for him sometimes)... but anyway, it's honest music... and i think it's worth listening to... <3's everybody, -is




wow... writing that even got me a lil bit sniffy... haha! jk!


we'll talk more later, i gotta go try & talk ex into letting me get a hamster!


<3ies!
