Word Is Out
Another song we developed from a demo of mine, this one features us beating on the air ducts with sticks to make percussion loops.
Babylon
We kind of considered this the end of the “album.” Seemed like we were ending on the right note.
Taken
The political theme, and lines like “we are patriotic by design,” were surely rooted in the first term of George W. Bush. It was 2002; after all. This was a demo and I played many of the instruments myself, but Mike Squires pitched in with bass and lead guitar.
Electrick Eel
This song developed as it went, and gathered meaning in its abstract nature like a snowball rolling downhill. At an epic length of almost six minutes it was our longest track, it kept growing organically until some kind of bizarre feedback-drenched guitar solo came out the other end.
Starvation
Abandoned demo, perhaps rightfully so.
Yo Soy Dinero
This was one of the more successful songs we worked on together. We’d get asked about this song years later. It was a crowd favorite. Jordan Hudson plays drums. If you’re curious, you can listen to the earlier demo version.
