i didnt know if i wanted to redo this one, because the original had such a unique sound that i wasn't sure i could replicate. but i tried, and i am pretty pleased with it. bashing the carpet roll on the mic cabinet is a new addition. its half about nothing and half about something. my new found interest in elephant6 noise bands also acted as an influence for the remake.







mp3: No Door Blues

Tim Koch & Alex Muro
We got the name for this song from one of those billboards outside of a church. The ones where you can rearange the letters to make messages for passing people. This was one of those creepy churches who try to entice people into going to church by making it sound like a good deal. Their sign this week says, "Free trip to Heavan, inquire inside". Thesong is really more about our country though.

*note: This song has multiple versions, this version is the newest version, older versions will be added eventually.

Me and Adam wrote this song one night. Not too much else to say about it. Nope.

Travelin' round the country you get to see lots of different girls. They are invariably amazing and impossible to deal with. So I figured I'd write a song about that and other things.

Everything Is part II
Alex Muro
This song has a lot of versions about it. There is old ones and new ones and so on and so forth. Right now I think only the oldest version is linked here but as I fill in the site hopefully I will come back here and post all the versions I have. This is one of our longest lasting songs.

The Life and Times of Sergeant Dunbar
Alex Muro
I actually met the real man, Dunbar not too long ago on a bus. Bus wasn't his perferred method of transportation but he was in a hurry. He was headed to Kingston to meet up with his boys and catch freight down to Georgia for the winter. He had been in Vermont for 6 months getting treatment for his liver cancer. This song and this band are about everything I learned of his life in the hour that I had to talk to him.
