1 01. the fires of life |
It's about the fires of life. Also known as "Clouds of Knowledge." It says "boy that sounds bad" at the beginning because we had to record the vocals in such a way that it sounded really bad while we were overdubbing them. It was said on the first few takes so it was also said on the final take, as a "tradition." | 1:19 1.2 MB |
1 02. i am the sunset |
This is a nice song that features the sound of a cassette tape being fast-forwarded. There's not much to say about this one. The tape being fast-forwarded is a recording of jonjohnny mcfee when he was approximately 2 or 3 years old. | 1:10 1.1 MB |
1 05. i am a mask |
A maskerpiece. The bassline is in "dropped D" tuning. Isn't it good? | 1:03 1.0 MB |
1 10. the swirly maker |
A nice acoustic song, featuring lyrics inspired by a mysterious yellow piece of paper found at the mall while it was closed. Not only was there a mysterious yellow paper at the mall while it was closed, but there were also weird yellow spheres with faces hanging in the parking garage. They periodically made a weird screaming siren sound. There was one car on the top of the parking garage. Later on in the evening it was gone, leaving only some broken pieces of a headlight. The other part of the lyrics, the "swirly maker" concept, was invented by jonbobby mcfee in some class or other at school as part of "taking notes." The picture shows a spiral with someone standing next to it who is having his limbs become distorted because they are too close to the "swirly maker." | 2:15 2.1 MB |
1 12. in-line skates |
The alternate title is "the president." Due to a lack of new material for the blsjnlsbalwivbalv album, this song, like many on that album, was assembled using some old music that was sitting on a tape with some old lyrics that were sitting on a piece of paper. The lyrics also had other verses which were even stupider. | 0:54 0.9 MB |
