Typhoid Mary EP / CD / Self-Released / Out Of Print
Track Listing:
Inside The Strangers Brain
Scorpion Woman
The Difference Between Right And Wrong
Hands Off Nathan
Slow Burn

(2006) Primarily compiled from rough mixes of songs that would appear on our full length, "Higher Planning With Significant Errors". The only exception being "Slow Burn", which only appears on this EP. There was also a short run of this release which had an alternate, and somewhat sketchy incriminating cover.

Higher Planning With Significant Errors / CD / Self-Released / $5
Track Listing:
All The Saviors
Nurse Betty
Scorpion Woman
Knick Knacks
Everything You See
The School Of Plastic Arts
The Difference Between Right And Wrong
Hands Off Nathan
Country Ass Song
Inside The Strangers Brain

(2007) Recorded in March of 2007 at Zombie Proof Studios in Cleveland by Paul Maccarone, and mastered at Relay Recording in Columbus by Jon Fintel. Due to overall lack of motivation and excessive marijuana use, this record would be shelved for almost two years until November of 2008. Its pretty obvious this is our first recording. You can definitely tell as we had not found our "sound" yet, but still has a generous helping of feedback, distortion, and overall sense of disappointment . This record is all over the place. A few standout tracks include "Country Ass Song" which was recorded live in the Zombie Proof bathroom, "The Difference Between Right And Wrong" with its pessimistic lyrics and drumming by Nate Scheible, and "Nurse Betty" with Tony's creepy foreshadowing lyrics and subject matter.
