Stephen Malkmus crashing a flying saucer into a radio tower.
In 2005, two unwitting astronauts on a lunar mission discovered an extraterrestrial container. In the NASA logs that followed it was reffered to as "The Dumpster" because of the stench that eminated from it. The two astronauts pried the top off the container, inadvertantly releasing the evil witch Rita Repulsa from her 10,000 years of confinement.
Upon her release, she and her army of evil Space Aliens set their sights on conquering the Earth. When the interdemensional being Zordon became aware of the release of the evil witch he was responsible for capturing so long ago, he ordered his robotic assistant, Alpha 5, to find five "teenagers with attitude," to defend the Earth from Rita's attacks.
The five teens Alpha found were noneother than River Donaghey, Dub, Anna Ponto, John Bluesky, and Asa Clifford. Zordon passed onto each of them a different instrument. To River, bold and powerful, he gave the guitar and a microphone. To Dub, clever and brave, he gave the guitar as well. To Anna, graceful and cunning, he gave the bass. To John, patient and smart, he gave the trumpet. And to Asa, fearless and agile, he gave the drums. With these instruments, they have the power to morph into an elite musical team called "The Tunnel Kings". Together, with Zordon's help, the five teens will stop at nothing to defeat the evil Rita Repulsa and keep her from taking over Earth.
This is our fourth album and arguably our best because it is our most recent.
