TAKE ON ME. TOKYO. OOH DO I LOVE YOU. HEY MA... except for TAKE ON ME, none of these recordings were ever considered finished or intended to be released. TAKE ON ME was supposed to be on some 80's cover comp. which apparently never came to fruition and HEY MA... ended up on Matt Werth's File 13 Records "We've Lost Beauty" comp. It features Mike doing most of the singing while Tim harmonica'd. Recorded 1995 by Rob Roy Campbell. Mixed by Elliot Dicks.

FORGET WHO WE ARE. OLERUD. The last two songs we ever wrote and polar opposites of each other. Written in the "C" tuning now made infamous by the Promise Ring. Recorded live by Aadam Jacob's Sonic Archives Mobile Recording Unit at the Fireside Bowl, July 7, 1995 - our last show in Chicago.

Kevin also played guitar noise on SEA TEA. ROCKY ROCOCO was recorded at the same time and originally released on the "Nothing Dies With Blue Skies" split 7' with Friction on Scott Snot's own Shakefork Records.
