Businessman

White Sheep

We let this one fall completely apart, to see if we were able to pick up the pieces towards the end. At least we stopped playing approximately at the same time. Lord took the opportunity to tune his bass during improvisation.

True Love Again

Too Pissed to Fart

We wished to explore (for strictly scientific reasons) how creativity and musical skills are affected by a steadily increasing intoxication level. The result, becoming evident when we listened to the recording the following day, was surprising in so many ways. It's a shame we have to censor this song. However, family considerations and reputation must come first.

D-runner

Sometimes, when you feel all cooped up by your too-familiar surroundings, you might want to go over the hills and far away, across all the burned bridges, to find some greener grass. In this case we took the train.

Freesurf

Lord and Nervan switched instruments, trying to figure out how they worked. The result was a rather open-ended basis for further recording. The process became very much like making drawings based on imaginary motives in wallpaper patterns.
