I have another album by these guys, one track is just a guy riding his horse while gargling. Kind of odd, but the rest of the album is really good. These guys really are great.
big thanks for all this most excellent crap you've been feeding us with!
;)
Thanks Man,
Keep checking back. I have much crap in mind to post.
I've got the cd L. Chupacabra talked about. I like the band too. Thanks.
I know Mr, L. Chupacabra and will probably ask to hear that other CD when I see him next time.
No, Thank you!
