The lead singer of punk band The Loved Ones. In January 2011, he released his debut solo album, 'Resolutions', through Paper + Plastick records - touring extensively to promote it. A statement from the label, quoted on punknews.org, described the record's origins:
"While writing the follow-up to the last Loved Ones release (2009's Distractions, Fat Wreck Chords), Hause was writing songs that didn't seem like they would fit on a Loved Ones record.

This is a song off the latest record "Devour". I am pretty sure about most of the chords except for the first one in the chorus...thought it to be either Am or F but might as well be something entirely different. If you have an idea or any feedback, please leave a comment :-)
tuning: standard, no capo Chords used: C, F, G, Am, Dm
[Intro] C (simply vary using the b string in C-formation and then on third thread, and the e-string)
[Verse 1] C We were the Reagan kids FGC Our heroes didn't work like our daddies did FGC They dazzled us with TV through sleepy lids G We followed hulking maniacs to prozac nation F (G) "You can be anything, just get your education"
C We were good Christian kids FGC We went to church on sunday mornings like mama did FGC Teenage love made us feel guilty and so we hid G Under those overpasses on summer nights F We'd tear each other's clothes off (G) And get into fights
[Chorus] DmF Then we roared right through our twenties GC Never bargained for a crash DmF Watched our hollow dreams get buried GC Under heaps of plastic trash DmFGAm Broken promises to children leaving idelible impressions FGC Welcome to the great depression
[Verse 2] C We were our father's sons FGC Playing war on weekend days with our plastic guns FGC Catching up with who we were through the reruns G "Eat your vitamins and say your prayers F (G) You'll become doctors, lawyers and millionairs"
C We were misguided kids FGC Tried to fuck our way through such a distorted world FGC Confusing love and sex and plastic with pearls G "Get what you can for yourself, leave the rest behind" F (G) It's freedom forever 'til your card gets declined
[Chorus]
DmF Then we roared right through our twenties GC Never bargained for a crash DmF Watched our hollow dreams get buried GC Under heaps of plastic trash DmFGAm Broken promises to children leaving idelible impressions FGC Welcome to the great depression
[Bridge] CC FAm
CC Did he die for your sins?
Did he leave us for dead? FAm If you wanted us safe why would you fuck with our heads? CC The factory's gone, the loans are foreclosed FAm But there's some places left that still remind me of home CC FAm There's some places left that still remind me of home CC FAm Just give me one place left that reminds me of home
[Outro] FGAm The lifeboat is looking pretty full FGAmGF If you find some room reach out and give me a pull FGAm The way we learned to live is fading fast FGC I guess we never bargained for a crash FGC I guess we never bargained for a crash FGC I know we never bargained for a crash
