Studio B(side)

Sometimes words can not describe just how the creative process works. Or even why it works. Studio B has set it's self apart as an incredibaly inspirational place to record. Things just come together. After all it is not just a studio but like the band it changes lives. Listen, learn, and enjoy.

NAMELESS/CARELESS

A lot of times, M.L. and I get together and sneeze out so many hits in one session, that it's difficult to assign appropriate names to each and every jam. We don't squabble over potential names at all. Sometimes, as is the case with today's post, we let the lyrics do the naming.

The song's "technical" name is BAXSTOO11,.....but, it's so much more leveled than that,.....

BAXSTOO11

you saw all the clues
confronted those that oppose you
lost in lonely places
figured you'd bow out
bow out without graces
in the room for you
no room for the loser
take it easy

Hey what's up everyone!

I guess by now the buzz has reached your hood, and you're aware that we're back. Yes, yes it's true, don't wet your knickers (Mel!)......yet!

We've been on an extended, but healthy haitus. A couple of us have gotten married (Ben!), one of us had a child (LUPE!), and the rest of us are still children (fools!).

We got back together to go through some b-side material with the intention of releasing yet another split 7" with (ahem) Urban Squakbox, and we were simply having too much fun in the studio. So, next thing we know, we've sneezed out 7 new hits, only 8 of which are any good.

The first one is called "Creeper" -- i've posted it here proving that sonic deeceness still exists. http://www.mediafire.com/?fvjkkbyofph

There are also two other tracks as well. ML and I get flooded with fan mail, constantly asking us about our song writing process. the second two tracks are a good insight into how our evenings usually progress.

Remember, if you're not with the Arsenal, you're against it.
