The Afterlife by Craig Koniges

This was the first album I ever made by myself, using garageband and my macbook's internal mic. There is a lot of imperfection in it, but some of my favorite songs I've written are on it. The album is a concept album, following a person's travels through the afterlife after committing suicide. He first despairs at still existing, then comes to accept his loneliness, dreams of a pretty girl, clashes with the expectations of his ancestors, then finds peace with a cynical world and human nature, and finally says goodbye to those back home.

lo-fi high concept forever

King Kong and the Bleeding Hearts was begun by Craig Koniges as a solo project but has since expanded into a full band. Somewhere in-between heartfelt almost on-key crooning and sweaty basement fuzz-rock, King Kong and the Bleeding Hearts hopes to help you dissociate and sway around.
