This song IS autobiographical. I been thinkin about what they call the best-case scenario And it's 20 more years of this shit, don't you know dealing with stuff I don't give a damn about in return for a certain pecuniary amount ref: can't…

I found out I could make this weird noise scratching over the center pickup on my strat. I looped it and built an "instrumental" over it.

An oldie, which I recorded very badly on a 4-track back in the 20th century. I have always wanted to do a "full" version with the bombastic fanfare I always envisioned. Here it is. I grind my butt into the sand where the ocean meets the…

Written while I was an exchange student in the U.S., probably at the student library, right after the New Year 1998.

I wanted more songs that WEREN'T about death and destruction. This song is not really autobiographical. I go down to my basement room To get away from everything To forget forgettable days Try to find something interesting Got a big comfy…

The therapist voice I found on some university website's psych podcast. And then Lister wraps things up for us.

I wanted to start an album with a burst of white noise. I'm not sure why. Nor was I sure what to do afterwards. So I just chucked out a few chords.

Check out the Smashing Pumpkins drums on this one.

This was supposed to have been a remix of a Neil Schuh song. But he hated it so I saved his bit for last and pretended it was my own. Fun fact: I played this at my high school music exam. It was either that, or sing.

Recorded at an old piano in a basement LAN at somebody's house, sometime early 1999. Recording method: chucking a pair of gamer headphones under the hood of the piano and playing the first thing that came to mind. The whispering noises: my LAN…
