"Brodie Ayala and I made this record between August of 2012 and February of 2013. We sent it out to a few labels and received responses along the lines of, "this is completely unmarketable" and, "I just don't think I can do the packaging you guys want." Then I got busy with Lips stuff and Brodie was busy with Be/Non and his lovely wife and kids and we just sort of left it. We've been talking about recording some new stuff, which reminded us that we had this just sitting around. Even though there are some songs I think I could mix better now and some other things that we would do differently were we to record it today, we decided to just let it stand as the thing we did then and have put it up on Bandcamp for your "enjoyment". I'm honestly really proud of it and had a blast making it. We had no agenda when we started recording other than, "dammit, we've been talking about recording forever, so let's just fucking do it" and it just became what it became. But I'm glad it's now available for people to love, like, hate or not particularly care about and I'm looking forward to our next batch of recordings. Special thanks to Doug McKinney, Kelli Mayo, Peyton Bighorse and Nanci Lee Ayala Rush for playing on it as well. And extra special thanks to Deerhoof for allowing us to sample them on "Bustle In My Hedgerow". -Kliph Scurlock August 2014 first recording date: August 22, 2012 final mastering date: February 5, 2013 "Bustly In My Hedgerow" contains samples from the following songs: "Breakup Songs", "The Perfect Me", "Siriustar", "Believe E.S.P.", and "Look Away", which were written and performed by [a=Deerhoof].
