Cover art for One Red Thread lyrics by Blind Pilot

“The only way you get universal is by getting really, really specific, and avoiding universal clichés.” - Israel Nebeker

Nebeker sometimes writes songs (melodies, words, ideas, sometimes partial, sometimes whole) in his dreams, wakes up and writes them down. It can lead to some pretty f-ed up S- that sux Ballz. It can also lead to some really good stuff that has meaning, but that only Israels subconscious knows the answer to, maybe yours does too.

Nebeker once played the Role of Joseph in a high school presentation of Joseph and the Technicolor dream coat. Joseph was known for being a good interpreter of dreams, that's why he became the Pharaoh's right hand man. Maybe Nebeker is the opposite, maybe he's good at interpreting reality with his dreams. Who knows.
