Gus Englehorn’s new album Dungeon Master is out via Secret City Records! Stream/purchase here.
”On this one I take on the role of narrator as I lead you through the twists and turns and ups and downs of my own psyche. Other inspirations include Alfred Hitchcock, my little brother Max and Wildwood’s New Jersey’s Boardwalk. I let my subconscious do a lot of the driving so some of these songs are mystery even to me. They aren’t meant to be taken seriously exactly, although most of them do discuss themes near and dear to my heart.” -Gus

”This one is another story I dreamt up about someone who gets arrested on one of those boardwalks on the East coast, like New Jersey’s Wildwoods. Down at the police station, the man is beaten by the cops and begins to dream he is the police dog chasing a rabbit in the countryside.” – Gus
