Music Shit / Dead Hookers Album that Never Was
« on: December 02, 2007, 11:53:58 AM »
I know maybe one-half of a human being who reads this board is interested in the lost Dead Hookers Album entitled (by me 5 minutes ago): "Soft Bananas"  Here it is:

Written and recorded on a cold November night in Minnesota a year ago.  This is the sound of brotherly love.

Music Shit / Favorite sci-fi drug (for the nerds)
« on: February 04, 2007, 07:29:43 PM »
With the popularity of the movie version of A Scanner Darkly I've been privy to many conversations on how "trippy" the movie was and how Substance D would be a cool drug to try.  I never got that feeling from reading the book.  I think part of the reason the book is so tragic is due to the hopelessness of the drug despite the comic episodes it causes.  That being said, here are some sci-fi drugs I would like to try:

1.  Merge (from Rudy Rucker's ware series) - Seriously, a drug that completely melts your body, leaving you a puddle with two floating eyes on the floor.  A drug that allows you to "merge" with another in the ultimate sexual experience.  You just have to be sure no one stomps your puddle apart before you reconstitute.

2.  The person drug, I forget what it's called (from Jonathan Lethem's Amnesia Moon).  The drug is named after the main characters friend.  Basically it's a needle drug that contains the friend.  You can only interact with the friend after you shoot him into your veins, and no one can see the interaction but you.  I think I would want to be the drug in this case.  It would make interactions a little more interesting.

3.  The time-displacement drug (from Now Wait For Last Year by PKD).  A drug that will randomly yank you through time without warning for the rest of your life.  Would definitely make the experience of living one's life and one's priorities an entirely new experience, although I guess this is kinda what drugs do anyways.

Hey Terminal people,
    Our first long playing album is due to arrive any day now.  It is called The Burial / The Rebirth and has some psychedelic punk songs about death, disease, pain, and peeking in windows.  There are some pretty alright guitar licks and the drummer has some cool fills.  Sometimes the lyrics rhyme.  If you have any extra cash left over when you purchase the Pink Reason album, you should give us a shot.  I think you'll dig it.
