hey, anyone want to start a "recorded with whatever the hell we felt like" movement? *remembers what board this is, breathes a sigh of relief, sets out to record a full length album in one take with a talkboy* also i'm wondering why i was just able to pick up the new breeders album on emusic, it see...

One of Tim's friend is the teacher and had invited him to play which is how the whole thing came about any...

like it? hate it? i would much appreciate some healthy criticism to keep in mind for the next time i put together an album.

oh man i'm crankin it through the phones right now. heima was such amazing experience (which if any of you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor and see it and have your mind blown). but this sounds so fantastically different but still very much sigur ros, i agree on the pet sounds feeling, it also h...
