Here's an untouched track from last year. Hopefully, it will be touched soon.

2004 S/T EP
As the mid-millennium summer was closing on Miami and the leaves didn't change, five dandy musicians reunited and recited a new approach to their song-craft:
lending to the song as much as possible.
Recorded live in Jose's bedroom with a couple of microphones, this 2004 song cycle revolves around a sound that best suits the name with dark and vaguely straight forward emotions.
I Love you Both
Welcome to My Funeral
Secret Pain
A Death in the Family

Upcoming: 04/03/10 @ Tower Theatre
Through every barnyard, tennis court, backyard, apartment, garden and basement, we've dug through some interesting terrain to plug in gear and blast semi-audible tunes to college folks. This next show may be the most unique we've ever performed at. Four bands, all personally scoring film excerpts. Most probably choosing a film they favor or enjoy. We, however have decided to film our own excerpt. We'll show it in full and provide the soundtrack. In fact, we just finished filming it yesterday. Hopefully it'll come off as planned. Even if it doesn't, we tend to take comfort in uncomfortable situations.
There is one more very exciting factor involved in the show.
WE ARE RECRUITING VOICES TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE ANIMAL/TROPICAL CHOIR
So far just for this performance, but if it turns out well it might not be the last time we do this.
Please respond to this post or contact us on Facebook if you'd like to be a part of it. You don't need to be a good singer, just have a voice you're willing to share with some friends and strangers.
Stay tuned for The Skeptical Operetta...

Backtracking
Scrooge McDuck aint got shit on us!
So, while he is diving into his vault of gold coins (and most likely hurting himself), we are drowning in lo-fi wavelengths and distorted microphones. Basically, we have a vault of our own.
It contains many a demo, early version and afterthought. In order to share with our dearest friends we've decided to feature different demos, old recording or maybe even live versions throughout the blog's lifespan from our catalog of 10+ years playing music together and separately.
Here's the first taste:
