"In the Highways (carter family/traditional)" by Koala?! and the Exploding Meth Lab

A great song by the god of country Charlie Poole

"If I lose, I don't care (charlie poole cover)" by Koala and the K-Holes

Finally got to use the little kid's keyboard i got from a yard sale. Warning, the keys arent exactly what you'd call responsive. Excuse my slight lack of rythm.

"Disconnected" by Koala and the K-holes

"Like Black Francis (another lyrical exercise)" by Koala and the K-Holes

Ive wanted to record a cover of this for about 8 years. Finally did it. I always thought it was just too obvious...too similar to my own style. But, fuck it. I dont care....lol....oops....i said "buttfuck it".

The image is of my son, born june 22nd.

"Rejoice (andrew jackson jihad cover)" by kOaLa?! [and the K-Holes]

"No Fucking Tears"

"No Tattoos (2nd version)" by koala and the k-holes

"Steak for Chicken (moldy peaches cover)" by Koala and the K-Holes

A re-recording. Basically just changed one line.

"Fresh Death/Fractured Lungs (second version)" by Koala and the K-Holes

Ive been periodically covering this song for about a decade and a half but never actually recorded it until now....for better or for worse.

"Love you more (buzzcocks cover)" by Koala and the K-Holes

I re-recorded this one for two reasons. 1.I wanted one without distortion and 2.Its an older song of mine that i thought deserved a second chance.

"Chalk Outline (2nd version)" by Koala and the K-Holes

Koala?! and the Exploding Meth Lab are a side project of Koala?! (of Koala?! and the K-Holes). Whereas the latter is antifolk/folk punk, the former will be focused on a more traditional sound, making use of outlaw country, americana, roots, alternative country, bluegrass etc.
