high waters

This song is about all of the freakin' rain we've been getting in the D.C. area. We thought about chopping down the trees in Scott's backyard and building an ark, but the rain stopped. The rain samples in this song were actually recorded in Scott's backyard during the storm this week.

wave the flag

Tonight, the I in IMP stood for interminable, as it took Steve 23 takes -- yes, 23 takes -- to get his guitar part down right. Not to be outdone, Scott put in a valiant effort on the bass, but fell short of besting Steve, finishing with a mere 19 takes to perfect the bass track. Andy came even closer, but Steve's endless studio session withstood the challenge, as Andy finished with 21 vocal takes to complete his part. In any event, it's a good thing we started early.
