about

The debut album, released in May 2011. Early steps, trying to find a sound, these are 11 tracks lovingly put together, no real theme, they just gathered naturally.

The intent was to mix electronic music and regular guitar and bass riffs, the album starts out with a Christopher Hitchens reference, an art book referencing love song in, You are electric, the tragic tale of dignity in addiction in Stringy Alcoholic Bangs, dodging totalitarianism in The Politburo Disco and so much more. If that sounds like your best night ever, than this is an album for you.

Now only $5.00 for 11 songs. This is daylight fucking robbery.
