about

The performances and sound of this record are intentionally somewhat messy and loose. This record was created without the ability, the means, nor an ounce of a desire to make something sounding "clean" or "polished", and in that -- at the very least -- it was a great success.

The instrumental tracks on this album, were recorded live in a basement by the band on a single day about a week before their farewell show in May of 2012. The band knew they were calling it quits and they had a bunch of songs that were written and performed live over the years but never recorded. Their good friend Joey brought over his Zoom R16 and set up a bunch of cheap mics and recorded the instrumental tracks in a couple hours.

Everything was laid down in one or two takes except "Pop Subculture" which took something like 5 takes for some reason. The vocals were added later, leisurely over a long period of time, likewise in one or two takes. Keyboards and a couple of other noises were overdubbed on a few tracks, but there are no guitar overdubs.

The record was mixed in GarageBand by Donny in a very chaotic, sporadic, yet deliberate fashion. Joey also helped with the mixing in a very essential capacity at the outset but he deserves no blame for the beautifully raw quality of the end result.
