about

This second album never quite sat right with me, and 15 years after its release, I was finally made aware of why. For personal reasons, I'll need to keep that why to myself - but it is worth saying that learning what I did required a new approach to this record.

A few songs were removed, but many more were added. All of the additional songs were taken from two unpublished 400 Lonely Things albums that had also been candidates for our second release.

I find this new version to finally be the album I wanted it to be back in 2008. It's still the same beast at its core - a collection of tracks built from meandering improvisations with samples and untunable guitars, detached rhythmic excursions and anachronistic sound effects, bizarre mash-ups, aggravated found sound destruction, and passages of blissful, simmering incoherent narcolepsy - but now that the thorn has been removed from its paw - it is even more so.

Material for this album was originally recorded between 1996 and 2008, with most of the album itself being assembled in 2005-2008. This corrected edition was assembled in February of 2023.
