about

Recorded Summer 2021 before my fourtrack kicked the bucket, and trapped on tapes until now (aside from bonus track "End of the Rope" recorded on computer shortly after).

They Might Be Giants was my first favorite band when I was 12 and my gateway to both no wave and punk. I decided to reinterpret some of my favorite of their songs in my own skronkpunk style, with one rule-- no singles! Deep cuts only.

Songs come from the albums They Might Be Giants (Alienation, Hide Away), Lincoln (Where Yr Eyes Don't Go), Flood (Someone Keeps, Letterbox), Apollo 18 (Turnaround), John Henry (Stompbox), Long Tall Weekend (Older), B-Sides (Stormy Pinkness, Rest Awhile), Dial-A-Song (Tiny Doctors), Album Raises New and Troubling Questions (Money For Dope), and Glean (End of the Rope).
