thanks to Richard at MOKB for the retroactive review of our first album. I think his review is pretty spot on and it mirrors a lot of my thoughts about it. it was our first record and thus was more of an experiment than a coherent statement. there were a lot of compromises and missteps but we learned a lot from them. as debuts go it was more Pablo Honey than Appetite for Destruction.
in retrospect the biggest mistake was the medium. it was really meant to be vinyl. and that vinyl was meant to be played on Mika's warped plastic record player with one tinny sounding speaker. without that vibe it doesn't match my imagination. hopefully we can remedy that in the future with a proper vinyl release for people to play on their own dilapidated turntables.
for the next release we are still debating what to do logistically. is there any reason to make albums? should we just make singles? I'm really excited about making videos too. I want to have videos for every song. if you want to make a video with us or for us, please let us know. or not, just go ahead and do it.
in any case the next release is coming soon and i am really excited about it.

Tatooed Tears
we've started playing this song live recently. like marianne it was a group effort to create and also like marianne it is one of my favorite songs. i've been wanting you use the song title for a long time to write a dreamy pop song about Morrissey and latino gangsters but as i worked on it i happened to notice a triangle of synchronicity take shape around the Smiths, Cholos, and East of Eden so it ended up being about all three.
yes i intentionally stole some Smiths lyrics but they are references to those songs and besides, Morrissey stole "(prison name), here we come" from a movie so i can steal it too.
it will probably change a bit by the time it gets released but i like this version and chris and i were talking about how our myspace page was a bit behind and needed some new blood.
enjoy
