Started as La Cochina's ill ligit love/brainchild with a four track recorder. After a few years and many solo performances, she was joined by a revolving cast of in-studio guests and band members. Such is the ebb and flow of ingenious minds engaged in the creative process...

The Human Blob-morphosis Alternate Reality Prophecy of 2019
In the year 2019 the timelines of the multi-verse shall split in 2 for the planet Earth creating 2 completely different and separate realities. Within the first of these realities humans shall evolve into becoming cybernetic motherboard-brained computer/human hybrids with high supernatural and super-normal abilities. In the second of these 2 realities we shall witness humanity evolving into becoming semi-conscious blob shaped beings which require life support like machinery just to survive...the future human ancestors of this 2nd reality will believe that they have discovered the secret to immortality, but they shall in actuality only have frozen themselves in suspended animation for a long period of time causing their bodies to atrophy and stagnate into oozing puddles of syrupy consciousness which merely wither in their inactivity. This Blob-morphosis shall continue on in an undisturbed dream like state until the year 87,463 when these blob humans will be eaten by an Earth invading pack of interstellar Blorknorks infected with intergalactic space rabies. Take heed of these words that I hath spoketh onto thee, for they concern the future of all humanity!!!
