Here's the opening number from the mysterious RAMPARTS album.

Long Ago A-Go-Go

This song was recorded almost exactly ten years ago (today is October 28, 2011).   

The First Liner

Effortless Plane (demo)

As much as I loved the mix that ended up on the proper album, there was something about our mix I always liked. This is it.

Waves Of Love (NE Mix)

Feat. Charlie Hall, Nick Krill, Gretchen Lohse, Adam Arcuragi, and the usual gang of NE idiots (Gianmarco Cilli, Jeff Love, Will Baggott. Doug Kirby, Rick Flom)

What The Lawns Said

I'd only read about, and not heard, all the stuff that this was trying to be like.  Which is kind of a good formula for weird music, really.

Concrete The Instrument

Pronounced soom-YOM. Also, not the actual title. A song kicked off by Jeff Love with assists from Doug Kirby (pre-chorus?) and me (chorus) (?). Drums by Gianmarco Cilli and fuzz bass by Will Baggott. A true NE collabothon.
