Featured Release
Obliteration City, 2017 Originally released on cassette by Chain Letter Collective. All of the lyrics for all of the songs on Obliteration City were adapted from interviews with various people, some famous, some not. Some of the interviews came from magazines, some came from books, some were TV interviews I found on YouTube, some came from documentaries, but they’re all real things that real people said. I re-arranged/edited excerpts from the interviews into lyrics and set them to music.

Discography
CT-701, 2010 Named for the Casiotone CT-701 that we bought at St. Vincent de Paul and I played in Shirley Rolls. It was stolen out of our van but it came back to us. Casio claims it has light-up keys but it has never chosen to light up for me.

Ashamed Ashamed Ashamed Ashamed, 2014 Made around the same time as CT-701 and with the same stuff (Casio CT-701, 4-track, DI guitars, etc.). Several of these songs were later cannibalized for Mechanookie (Ashamed) and Dawn of Sequins (Everybody’s Crying, I Waited Too Long). Night of the Leopard is my favorite on here.
