Two new songs! Kinda!

We've got two new songs available for download, though one isn't exactly "new" (nor is it exactly "ours.")

The first is song number five from Penny Dreadful Valentine. Titled Black Light God, it's available for download over at the album's website. Get it here.

Black Light God was intended for our last LP but we had two problems with the song. First, the original mix was a bit agonizing to listen to, even by our obnoxious standards. Second, the original lyrics sucked harder than an Olympic-class sucking thing (and I can say that because I wrote them.) Mark stepped in an re-wrote the lyrics, keeping only my original Black Light God idea and jettisoning the other shite.

In case you were wondering, the Black Light God from my lyrics was Captain Marvel. The Kree guy, not Shazam. Even though it didn't make the final cut for our first album, it was still referenced in the lyrics of Sword of Galaga. ("Oh," you must be thinking. "NOW the song makes sense!")

The other "new" song is our re-mix of IG-88's '57 Chevy by mc chris. He had a contest to remix songs from his Part Six eps and, being huge fans, we thought we'd take a stab at one of the songs. As usual, though, we dragged our asses and missed the deadline. We're trying to get our new album done and the remix thing just got pushed to the side for a few days too many.

We wanted to do one of the Star Wars songs and decided ti pick the one about IG-88. He's like the bounty hunter who always gets picked last in gym class, so we thought we'd show him a little love.

The original concept of our re-mix was to do a classic Run DMC/License to Ill-era Beastie Boys version of the song. As with everything we do, though, it threatened to turn into a Destroy All Monsters tune before the first chorus was over.

You can get the song below!
