Michael Adams Haven’t listened to this in awhile. I love everything Brodie does and this no exception. This has elements of Ween, yes. And the kind if indie alternative hard stuff I loved in the early 00’s. It’s a really fun record and rewards the listener with humorous stuff below the surface too. Holds up with repeated listens. Years later I still come back to this one. Good times!

Brandon Brown This is like Ween's The Pod and Beck's Midnite Vultures had a baby, and that baby was curiously obsessed with Hello Kitty. Favorite track: Bustle In My Hedgerow.
Man Of Arun
Man Of Arun thumbnail
Man Of Arun DIX, or 509, was the year Chlodoric King of the Ripuarian Franks was assassinated by agents of Clovis The First whilst rendered immobile by plunging his arm into a chest of gold coins to demonstrate the wealth of his realm.

Street Level 02:16
STREET LEVEL Cleaned my bedroom Gave my mom a kiss good night Brushed my teeth Turned out the light I'll tell you don't fuck with me I am street level Through the forest Down by the Sea Of Green Slay the dragon Now I am the Queen I told you once before that I am street level I am street level I am street level It is time to wake up I stretch my arms And comb my hair Put my pink dress on I go downstairs To help my dear mom out Make some pancakes And just then in the dragon comes It crashed into the house and took my mom So I shot an arrow right through his heart Now he's dead So will you If you mess With a girl I am mean I am tough I am street level

89 Or 14 To 26 Bet you wish we had some words here right now I'm sitting here trying to think Of some words to sing They won't come to me This is the fourth song The words should be really strong Need a hit What should I write about I'm sitting here full of doubt I could clean my house instead These lyrics are filling me full of dread Can't stop now That was really sweet There's a bird outside Up and away it just flied Had a thought, but it just passed OMG What this song really needs Are some super shredding leads Check out this hot guitar solo Take it away That was hot Just to prove we're dumb We'll give the drummer some Try not to suck you fucking dick What was that What do you think we're gonna do next You will not believe Check it out Breakdown part That was pretty hot You must like it Wow, this song's still going WTF Can you please just stop LOL Listen to me sing Imagine all the flashing lights If I get these words just right The ladies will be screaming my name That'll be great Who you calling Shovelhead? Who was that? Can't even think of lyrics To sing about how I can't think of lyrics Things have gotten grim in my house now On and on and on Looking for something to say, oh geez Will this song ever end IDK

Floorgum 03:15
FLOORGUM Girl, I ain't got no furniture I lost it in the divorce She took my television too The microwave and all the food Girl, just shut your purdy mouth Who cares that I ain't got no couch But I don't want you slidin' 'round While we's busy gettin' down You'll need some... Floorgum Floorgum Floorgum Floorgum Floorgum goo Why'd you bring me to your house When you ain't got nothin' What is that Lamborghini you're drivin' You tell me you got all this money But you ain't got shit What, you wanna fuck me on the floor? You gotta be kiddin', man I am a classy girl Take me out for dinner or a movie Give me some money or a ring I don't know what you think you're gonna get But you're hot, so whatever Just make sure that you've got some Floorgum Floorgum Floorgum Floorgum Floorgum goo Girl, was it good for your head I'm sorry I ain't got no bed And sorry for no privacy That bitch took all the drapery But you were a good sport But I gotta go to sleep 'Cause in the morning I've got court That's the end of the song

Beth Also 04:32
BETH ALSO Holdin' your hand Lookin' in your eyes And when you giggle I know the meaning of life I'll do your laundry Cook you breakfast in bed Now I know what love is for I'll miss you when you're dead You are my diamond queen A real glorious creature If you were a movie I'd see a double feature Please don't leave And please don't cry Guess who will never hurt you This stand-up guy Beth You are my girl You give me your heart And I'll give you the world I promise you These words are true I will always love you Lying in bed Watching our t.v. I always feel special When you're next to me Take you on a date Order what you wish I hope you're on the menu 'Cause you're my favorite dish Then we'll take a walk Down on the beach Every day we spend together Is a real treat Then we go back home I'll give you a back rub And when you kiss me I know the meaning of love Beth You are my girl You give me your heart I'll give you the world You and me We can be stars In the heavens We'll shine forever I promise you these words are true I will always love you

BUSTLE IN MY HEDGEROW On a cold winter's night I was asleep in my bed When I was awoken by a horrible sound It was a bustle in my hedgerow And I was alarmed I turned on the lights And I put on me shoes And I put on me robe And I went outside to see Just what it was What was this noise Disturbing my sleep Pissing me off I got my gun To shoot whatever it was Making this noise Waking me up Don't you know I've got to work in the morning Don't be afraid I am a friend Please do not shoot me I'll give you money I want to be friends Take off that robe Let's get to know Each other like they did in the Bible Well, I don't know Are you friendly or foe This bustle in my hedgerow If you really are a friend Why were you hiding then This bustle in my hedgerim You'll have to catch me if you want me to talk But if you shoot me, you'll be out of luck Oh, by the way, I stole the keys to your car And all your floorgum, you won't get too far Unless you come and play And where is it now This bustle in my hedgerow I'd better go find it Out the back door And down the steps Into the yard, man Past the lawn gnomes He will catch him This bustle annoys him He wants his keys Into the garden Stepping on tomatoes He stubbed his toe And he fell into the stream That motherfucker He's going to kill it Now he's really mad He brushed himself off And retied his shoe The bustle is laughing Where is it coming from He should have brought his flashlight 'Cause it's really dark out here Look out It's right in front of you That was a super fight He caught the bustle The bustle took off his robe And ran away laughing Into the night Now he is naked No keys, no robe, no floorgum Now he's really fucked Here come the cops I had a row with the bustle I'm sittin' here in jail Public indecency charge I tell you what, this place is worse than Hell I've been here for three weeks They serve us gruel for tea I'd rather be at the pub Just a pint, me bird, Beth, and me Seems when they put me in here They threw away the key I wonder when the judge Is gonna come and hear my plea Blow your harmonica, son Finally, I'll be able to prove I was right And I should get to go home tonight And start to forget this whole ordeal What the fuck, who's that judge, is this for real? You've been brought here by the order of the court Everybody sit down Hey, now, I must retort You're the one who caused this all to begin with That certainly is a weird strategy to try to win with If you think you're ever going to be set free I would highly recommend that you don't diss me Well, bustle, bro, I really think this is a conflict Of interest that you could be the one to inflict The punishment for the crime you caused me to commit Hey, I don't like your attitude one little bit How dare you come to my court and try to accuse Me of things that I would never ever ever do It's up to you, jail time or just a ticket But in the meantime, hear the drummer get wicked After that sweet drum break, I'm quite content To hear the case you wish to present Well, dawg, I was just laying in bed watching it snow When I heard a crazy sound just outside my window I went outside to see what it was And it was you, who apparently now is the judge You stole my possessions and you left me nude Excuse me, defendant, but you're being quite rude I've tried thus far to be a good sport But don't forget you're a subject in my court I've sat here listening to your crummy defense And now I think it's time I pass sentence Your constant accusations have made me quite cross And once again my gain is going to be your loss Hearing this nonsense has made me feel quite mean I could sentence you to die in a guillotine Or I could bust a cap in your ass with my gat I think I could really enjoy that But because this fucking beat is so dope I sentence you to death by being hung with a rope

World:

A "lost" "masterpiece" now available to assault your ears. Free or best offer!

Brodie Rush 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 Ayala 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
