Myspace Layouts - Image Hosting - Comments

Started in 1994 in Portland. Contributed material to the Precipitation Compilation CD (1995- Partial Records), the Amphibious Maximus Compilation (1995- Red Phraug Records), and the Storm of Drones 3 CD compilation (1996-Asphodel Records). Spent the next seven years parenting & making home tapes. The first Mortal Engines Release is a collaboration with the Noisettes (Static Blue, 2004- available through CD BABY). There is a SIGNIFICANT DISCOUNT for those willing to purchase the entire CD as mp3s. CD BABY will also send you photo files of the artwork and song list so you can make your own CD at home. Neat!

Pressure Vessel is the second Release: It took a while to put together but, the results are definitely satisfying. The almost 15 minute "Flying Lotus" is the standout on the Disc.

Sugar Skull (a kind of "double EP" that features live tracks and a 26 minute single mix in four parts), is now complete and available! This was made sort of before and during the production of Pressure Vessel. It almost justifies the 3 1/2 year wait between the previous disc releases. Even though the concept sounds disjointed, there is a real cohesiveness between the two "EP's". The live tracks were recorded in April of 2007 at KPSU studios for a live broadcast. Much gratitude and thanks to Ricardo Wang and Austin Rich for making it happen.

Thanks Joe! I don't generally like to re direct customers to competing sites but, this site allows for more songs to be uploaded....It isn't as pretty as myspace though....it's a little more "basic".

Yo Mortal Enginesasaurus. I just found out that we're related...and as a special family only present we've made a new song for you called "End of Days" (start doing backflips now). It's an epic instrumental opus to the moment when our ancient Dino relatives saw a large fiery object plummeting towards them. Please come to our page, give it a listen and let us know if it makes you feel like something catastrophic is gonna happen. If the song upsets you too much we will be holding several s support groups (read: comcerts) in the near future. Check our page for locations, dates and times.
