5/14/23 "Music For When You Get Bored of Talent"
Hi folks, Mike Patten here. I came to you today for your entertainment as well as your education. I'm here to tell you about and play my new material that I am working on. I've compiled an extra special composition separated in 9 parts (or "songs"). These "songs" I personally crafted for your enjoyment in arts, history, and political science. Please enjoy my----

Hey babybabe, the real Mike Patten is here now. Mommymom said that my other personality can only come out half of the time. I decided to give myself multiple personality disorder for this album because I needed it to not sound too good. Sometimes we all need a break from talent, whether it be on Tic-Tac or Tubeyboob, talent is everywhere and it is exhausting. So I made another personality for myself that isn't very good at music!

This is his album babe. I think it's totally embarrassing and it's a shame to have to put my name on it, but all the critics are raving for some reason. I haven't had an album rated higher than 3 stars in over 20 years. But this one has more than 5! and it's out of 5! That doesn't even make sense!

What else doesn't make sense - he used Jim Martin 2 for some guitar parts and guess what? He actually did what he was told and didn't meander off into an endless sea of noodling and chugging guitar riffs. I just don't get it. Whatever. Mom says my music is better than his so it doesn't matter.

Buyer beware: This album is bad. Trust me.

Tracklist: 1. The Four Noble Truths Suite (The Grand Ballroom Erupts) 2. The Meaning of Life (Beginning, Middle, and End) 3. Why Did I Have to Fall in Love (Again) 4. The Complete Nostradamus (Dodo) 5. Understanding the Elements (From Hydrogen to Oganesson) 6. The Great Mind of Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche 7. Julius in Fornication (Timepieces) 8. The Inevitable Mortal Coil 9. Dust



5/2/23 "Save Room for a Lozenge"
Hi friends. I bet you didn't know that industrial rock music is in my blood! I created this genre in the 80's with my experimental group Mr. Bungle. We did it all! We used samples from video games and that's what industrial rock artists did, use samples. So we were super industrial and Dannybabe traded in his drum set for some gears and machinery.

Dear Dannybabe, why does your drum set sound like you're working in a factory? You traded your drum set. I get that way sometimes, I forget things. It's starting to become a problem. Not only did Dannybabe industrialize his drum set, there was an industrial revolution with Big Jimathan Martin and his guitar. He replaced the strings with keyboards and broke it to make it sound bad. Then mommymom asked us what we wanted for dinner and we all said "Sketty with butter please!" at the same time and started laughing and rolling around on the floor together.

So everyone in the world is asking "What's up with the lozenge Mike Patten?!!" Well babes, shhh. It's okay. Mike Patten is here to explain everything to you. I had to suck on a lozenge during the recording of this album because my throat was really damaged from an ailment and screaming lyrics during the ailment. Sometimes I wasn't hungry enough to eat a lozenge because we had too much sketty. But sometimes I wasn't hungry enough to eat a lozenge because we had too much lasogna. Either way, there were times that I couldn't handle a lozenge and those were the times my singing was just a bunch of whispers.

This album is also like a lozenge. So save room for a lozenge. There is a lot on here that will soothe the shit out of you. Trust me. It's not hard throbbing kill kult gristle ministronics. But most of it is. That's because I'm the hardest to ever live.

Tracklist: 1. Nine Inches of Mike 2. Five Second Nails 3. B4BYB4B3 4. Testure Skills 5. Daisy Chain 4 Patten 6. A Drug Against Flea 7. Kooler Than Patten 8. Very Groovy Sketty 9. Thumb Thumb Two 10. Old Horror Movie Samples on Top of an 808 (Untitled) 11. Lozenge in Flight 12. Assim[IKE]ilate 13. Lozenge (For You) 14. Combinations of Christ (Suck)



4/26/23 "Manchild: Songs Without Words"
Here I am dancing in the shadows of the river. Oh hey babes. Mike Patten here and I'm with my new playmate John Zorn. Everyone should say hello to John Zorn because mommymom said so. That's right, we made this album about yours truly, the ultimate child at heart, mind, and soul. Babe, I can't help it if my body outgrew my mind. That's just the way it works. That's how you win Grammys. Those are special award stickers I get from my grandma. If I don't get any I will throw a temper tantrum and get sketty stuck all over the ceiling again.

Speaking of tantrums, I just threw one because I didn't get enough butter. I only like sketty with lots of butter and nothing else, if anything else is on there I will smash the plate on the ground because it's not right. There are a lot of reasons I have temper tantrums and fits. If da-da turns on the news and I wanna watch Zoboomafoo but he turns the channel to Fox News and I don't wanna watch Fox News so I punch a hole in the TV and cry and yelp and have an aneurysm. That's when Zorn hits the record button babe. These are songs without words, just me having a tantrum and Zornybabe doing crazy musical confections in the background.

Babe, I don't know where I would motherfucking be if I couldn't rely on my parents. They do everything for me (shhh, even wipe my butt and piss me). I'm just a little baby, I'm cute and sweet as candy and I crinkle around in my diapers like a runway supermodel megastar. We ran out of Jell-o? You taught me a lesson, thanks mom, I guess I can't rely on you for anything. Better go to the store babe else I will lick up my chops and Zorn will have to get the record button ready.

Anyway, it's time for me to romp around the living room in my underwear and pretend I'm in a band. I have my milk, my pajamas, and my stuffed teddiebabes. If you do check out this album I'm sure you will have as good of time listening to it as I did making it. If you don't check out this album I will kick and scream and yell.

Tracklist: 1. My Mom is Better Than Martin 2. After School Jewels 3. Tantrum I: Stepped on a Battle Borg 4. Tantrum II: Jell-O Too Thin 5. 21st Century Manchild Man 6. Tantrum III: I Don't Wanna Go to Church 7. She Cooks, She Cleans, She Buys Me Pokemon Cards 8. Mr. Krinkle (Primus Cover) 9. Tantrum IV: My Sketty-O's Weren't Al-Dente 10. Diaperchange



4/18/23 "100 Amazing Ring tones" (Name Stylized as "Mike Patten Baby!")
Shizzow!! Mike Patten Extraordinaire here with a fresh new album hot off the presses! It's called "100 Amazing Ringtones" babe. I'm the master at ringtone music and this album really shows. So many hot tracks on here it'll make your head spin baby!!

There's actually only ten technically on the CD. I just lumped ten ringtones per track so I didn't have to name as many songs. I'm too busy making albums to do something like that. The vinyl version is split between all 100 babe, don't worry. And that reminds me, if you buy the CD, record, or cassette, here's how it goes: I recommend Windows XP. You'll have to download an audio ripping software for the cd or buy capture device equipment for the record or tape. Once you figured out how to do that, convert the files to the correct format, grab a wrench and start cranking on your phone to open up the file folder and put the tones' in the folder you need to put it in. Simple as that! BAM! 100 ringtones for $49.99 plus taxy-poo.

They're all about 5 seconds long or so. Miniature Michael masterpieces constructed from fine ore and gravel and I hit up Jordan again to play guitar for this album because things got a little weird in the bathroom with Big Jim Martin. Maybe no more Poopin' Pals shows anymore. I'm just gonna leave it at that babybabe.

I really hope you like my jingles. Every once in a while it feels good to make music just for the money and not for any personal fulfilment or enlightenment or any of that crap. Just straight up money. Give it to me now.

Tracklist: 1. DJ Boy Mike Patten's Ringtone Megamix 2. These Ringtones Sound Like Metallica 3. These Ringtones Sound Like China 4. These Ringtones Sound Like The Cruella Deville Song on 101 Dalmations 5. These Ringtones Sound Like You're Going for A Jog in the Springtime With Moses 6. These Ringtones Sound Like Aborted Red Hot Chili Peppers Songs 7. These Ringtones Sound Like Indiana Jones Music 8. These Ringtones Sound Like Jersey Mike's 9. These Ringtones Sound Like Mariah 10. These Ringtones Sound Like Alarm Clocks Except One is an Atomic Bomb Sound



4/16/23 "Poopin' Pals"
Okay! Time for a new treat! Mike Patten here with my forgettable sidekick Big Jim Martin and we gotta go! Hush sugar, don't cry. We just gotta go to the bathroom, we ain't leaving. You can come in join us if you want. Too scared? Well I guess I have to hit the record button so you can listen to all the fun we have.

That's right, I have a poopin' pal. I can't go to the bathroom wtihout him! He's a riot in the stall, and a master at his buttcraft. Guess what we motherfucking did you'll never believe it! Hahaha I'm so nuts! Okay, so we got an extension cord and hooked up a bunch of recording gear and guitars and mics and amps and all the good shit. Then we blasted out an epic TOILET ROCK ALBUM in the stalls. I capitalized toilet rock album to be funny babe, if you know you know.

We talk dirty, play sleazy music, and defecate while doing it. You hear it all! We went on a tour of different public restrooms to do this. The mall was the best because the most people showed up. We really scared the poop outta the guy in the stall next to us when we plugged in the amp. And loud, god it was so fucking loud I went deaf for a week. I even made an album while deaf that you all might hear later down the road. But that's the pure spirit of toilet rock. Do things that might get yourself seriously hurt and be obnoxiously gross. Jim Martin lives that life 365 babe. Not me shhh. I have too many other things to be.

If you want us to play a toilet show at your school or place of employment, send us a self addressed, stamped envelope to PattenFever babe. That's my new studio. 69 Rodeo Drive, Italy babe.

Tracklist: 1. Battleshits Again 2. Jimbo's Dump 3. Crazy for Caca Puffs 4. Smearing Wet Feces and Swearing You'll Never Be (Caught) 5. Star B.M. 6. F*rt*ng, P*ss*ng, Str*k*ng my F*ck*ng D*ck 7. GG Allin Julius (At the Mall) 8. Poop is a Fist 9. Oh (My) Lord (My) God



4/13/23 "Working for the Weekend"
You want a piece of my heart? You're going to be neck-high in a mud puddle because everybody's working for the weekend and I'm everybody. Back in the day, me and my punk rock band Mr. Bungle did a cover of Working for the Weekend live, you can hear it on PattenFever and because of this I assume all rights to the song because that's how it works. Sorry Loverbabe, you're going to have to find a new song to play at your shows.

Work is so much harder when you're a glorified man-child babe. I get too busy throwing a tantrum and splashing mud all over the place and it takes me SooooOOOoo much more longer to get my work done so I can go play. I went online to hire a plumber to do my work for me so he can work and I can pay him, wow and then I can get paid on top of that but all I got was Big Jim Martin. Big Jim Martin is expensive babe and all he did was play guitar in the mud. He looked like Slash playing November Rain by the church with his wild hair in the wind and his knobby knees in the mud. Lips pursed, ankles knocked.

Along with WFW, the songs pretty much follow the same line of the 80's wiener wave genre. Hard-chugging but totally safe pop rock hits, song after song is what you will get if you fucks with this Patten release. It's great and I am invincible. Babe, I bet u can't even handle my wiener wave. I poop out radio-friendly chuggers like I'm Grohl in grotesque aspic. The first half of this album are songs I stole and the second half are originals. I didn't have time to write 12 whole songs today.

Tracklist: 1. Working For the Weekend (Of Course) 2. Powerlove 3. The Stroke (Squier's Dofus) 4. Wild Wild West 5. Addicted 2 (Might As Well Face it You're) Love 6. The Look of Love (I Like the Yippie-Yai-Yay Part the Best) 7. Real Talk 8. Voracious Mudplay 9. White Mud/Brown Mud 10. Rabble Rauscher 11. M-Boy Wiener Wave Remoulade



4/11/23 "Mamby Pamby Man"
I am the best and this prooooves it. Babe u don't even have to be macho or Camacho to be a real man. And/or you can be totally straight and dainty at the exact same time. At least I can be because I am. Before my "Skinwalker" days, I was a "Mamby Pamby Man". I mamb and I pamb and I frollic around with my guitar. I pluck dew drops and whistle 'Mercury as I tip-toe through the tulips. And I'm sexy when I'm doing it so "Get a Taste" of my new album. MP 3MP (Mike Patten Loves Mamby Pamby). I love Mamby Pamby because that's the name of my new album, duh!

I scared off Big Jim Martin because he is too afraid to get in touch with his feminine side. Your loss babe. I use ladies deodorant, shave my armpits, and wear motherfucking tassels. I'll find someone better to play "band" with like Harry Styles. Okay Harry Styles is here now. Hi Harry I don't want you to be in my band, goodbye. And then I collaborate with 'Jordan.

I'm a mini van man babe. Shhh. Not a secret! I got a really cute guitar so I decided to play it on this album and because Big Jim Poop-Balls wouldn't let me have him play on the album. I'm pretty good I think. I know how to play the E Minor chord so I do that most of the time. And sometimes I just pluck random other strings. I make sure I mix in a little country twang because I decided to go country this time around and if I don't have enough twang in my country time I will piss it out and start over again.

Babe, Country is easy. Just be a mamby-pamby man, pluck a few strings, sing about the dog, wear some spurs and fringed jackets. Then write the exact same songs you hear on the radio, but add your own little gimmick to them. I bet I will go platinum with this formula because I'm good.

Tracklist: 1. American Honky-Tonk Mamby Pamby Man Association 2. Take This Bottle Part 2 3. Drinkin' With the Dog 4. Pink Pick-up Truck 5. Don't Gotta Be a Man (To Be a Man) 6. Just a Mamby Pamby Man 7. Mamby Pamby Manwich Sandwich 8. Sandwich Boogie 9. Boogie Boots 10. These Boots Are Made for Pamby



4/3/23 "Midwife Crisis"
Red alert babe, so here's the story it's good: So I decided to cave and show ol Big Jim what it's like to be with a Super Dupermodel and it was so gross! Ew. He was way too hairy and he bathes in bologna so I had to get black out drunk. Well 9 months later babes and now I have an emergency!

I thought Enrique got me pregnant this whole time because I forgot about the whole Jim thing, but when I popped out the babe it looked just like Jimmy Martin babe. Now I'm stuck with this kid that's only good for shredding guitar leads and growing pumpkins. What's worse is I sent out all of these invitations for a midwife party because I wanted to show off my beautiful babe. But this horror popped out and instead I got embarrassed and everyone just pointed and laughed and hung out with the normal babies. Enrique is upset too babe and you don't want to upset that man. He's a real man. Big Jimmybabe is on his hitlist now. Babe, this is a disaster and I have to make an album about it.

I don't know if people realize how much of a little stinker I am. This is truly a predicament they could make a movie about. It's so wild. It has a beginning, middle, and end. It has a dense texture and it truly gives back to the audience. Maybe I should do a gofundme, maybebabe. No maybe not because I have to work on this album. I'm going to make an album.

This is an album about how Big Jim got me pregnant and embarrassed me in front of my friends. Please read my amusing story above to know what all went down. It's a wild ride! Also, please subscribe to my podcast. It doesn't exist but it's fun to search for anyway.

Tracklist: 1. Gentlemen Prefer Patten 2. Unless I Do Something Really Stupid 3. Hush and Tell 4. Easy Pt. 2 5. Addled 6. Midwife Crisis 7. Unbreakable Box (I'm A) 8. Two Afterwards 9. My Menstruating Heart 10. Now I'm My Own Prison 11. No Longer a Woman (No More a Man) 12. Queen 4 a Day, Fool 4 Your Lovin' 13. D Pod 14. Honeypot 15. Laredo Suede 16. Sensual Narcosis



4/2/23 "Gentlemen Prefer Patten"
How's the rain on the rhubarb babe? Michael Monroe Patten at your service babe. I got all u need because I got class, style, and charisma. *Smack*! You big brute! I saw you peeking at my undies while I's standing on top of the dream-supreme air machine. Now u don't get no honey.

Gentlemen prefer Patten. It's true. I'm just all up in their thoughts while they're at work, at home, at the gym, or getting their associate's degree. They can also get their G.E.D. or high school diploma. Call now, operators are standing by.

That's right babe, I'm sophisticated. My butler baby butt-boy Big Jim Martin says that I'm complicated with a dash of sophistication and then he plays me a sweet guitar lick and waves his hair around in circles. And I make him walk me to Sacks 5th Avenue and Macy's and I get all the clothes and I make him carry them all over the city because I'm too busy shopping to ride in a car.

Then we go to a fancy restaurant and I eat caviar and I eat pilafel. And then we go home and start working on the album. I don't give him breaks babe. I made him run on a treadmill while I was eating my fancy dinner. I love how I can control people with my looks. U ain't getting no honey either Jimmybabe. Go in the corner and give yourself another BJ.

This album is all about 90's industrial techno mixed with showtune like music. It's really extravagant and here's the list:

Tracklist: 1. Star DD 2. Barbary Clowns 3. Mike (I'm a) 4. Coddle/Suckle 5. DOOM 6. Underneath the Grates 7. Narcosis is Real 8. My Mikeshake 9. Peeping Jim 10. Ready 4 Love



3/27/23 "Liminal Spaces"
B a b y , , . . . B a b e. W e l c o m e .

That's how my new album starts babe. Why didn't you already know that? Get a clue. Then it busts out into 20 minutes of muted Gregorian chants. Then some fuzzy 90's elevator music babe. It's because it's my album called Liminal Spaces and it makes me feel warm and calm inside.

I hide in the room. Hide. What I did was I put my big, beautiful buns in the b a c k r o o m s and I turn repari. I was eating a consume the other day and I was in the b a c k r o o m s. I was shearing my legs and I was in the b a c k r o o m s. I was coddling corners and I was in the b a c k r o o m s. I wish I had a heart and I was in the b a c k r o o m s. I love you like a dog and I was in the b a c k r o o m s. I was in the b a c k r o o m s and I was in the b a c k r o o m s. Eating mushrooms and whey.

I lost Jim Martin somewhere in the b a c k r o o m s and he is gone. He went away looking for something to start a fire with and I think he was hunting after a turkey to eat. I'm just making pilaf turducken soda pop. ----->

Next song is the last song and it has a lot of ghostial harmonies. And then i go haywire and start to attack the microphone babe. My vibrations drop the hit points down to 0 and that's when I knew, I was a true artist. I went to the wall and I touched myself in the face. Things repeated, and were never lost...

Tracklist: 1. Even Further Down the Backroom Spiral 2. Normal Autonomics 3. Mako Reactor 4. T9Word 5. Casanova Drive 6. Binary Economics 7. Plato Insane 8. Vespid 9. The Left Hand Corner 10. Experiment in Error 11. Minus



3/25/23 "Karen"
Babe, we all know that I am an attention seeking individual, and I'm pissed and ready to kick it up a notch! I am the ultimate Karen, let's just get that straight. I have rage for days and everything has to be perfect, my way or I'm going to throw a temper tantrum and yell until I reach the core of your inner feelings and break you down inside completely.

Uh-oh babes, what's that? I'm being a sassy-sass butt boy babe and I'm taking it too far? Get over it babe, check this out: Freddy? What a wuss! Jason? Laaame Chucky? No way babe, it's all about me, Karen. Even though we worshiped these idols during the Mr. Bungle days, I out horror them all with my spooks, goblins, ghosts, and screams. Babe, u put mayo on my buns when I told you I wanted to substitute ketchup? Well you're going to the grave and I got a bladder full of rage to spray all over your tombstone.

Why can't people just do things perfectly all the time? I just don't get it. It's not that hard, I do it everyday. If you are not doing everything perfectly when you're dealing with me then here comes the pain!

Big Baby Jim Martin felt my wrath babes. He does a beautiful job at playing the guitar but every time he played a note I was kind of "on the fence" about I let him have it for hours. I would degrade him and make him feel like a shadow of a man. Jimmybabe, no more tears. You gotta get back on that horse and cater to my needs. You gotta wipe my butt, tell me a bedtime story, and give me a kiss on the forehead goodnight.

So there you have it. You all better like my new horror metal album. If I get any negative reviews from it I will just deny everything they say and whoever reviewed it doesn't know what they're talking about and I'll call them a dumbass. That's just how it works baby, my way or the highway.

Tracklist: 1. The Gentle Art of Merry Melodies 2. blacK(AREN)friday 3. Room Full of Dumbs 4. Bitchin' 5. Storm Warning 6. Doomgaze 7. Adult Tantrum Treat 8. Calm My Knockers (I Won't) 9. The Day Jim Played an F Sharp 10. Extra Saughse 11. Buoy 12. Blood (Patten Vocals Version)



3/24/23 "Post Nasal Drip"
Bombs away! Time for another Patty-watty to pound explosions in your ear underneath smooth arias and nature from a sensual being. I got the PND babe (Post Nasal Death is more like it.) because I got allergy-wallergies. So on this album I sound like crap because my throat is clogged up. Luckily I have help from one of my noisy bands, Faith No More and they play so loud you can barely hear the rattling velch that's inside my neck hole.

I even invited Chuckybabe along. I called him up and said "Dear Mosles, come back from the dead for another FNM tribute album." And he said "Another? I missed the days you were stuck in the duffel bag." And he said okay and he didn't do anything on the album because I'm the singer, not him. I booted him out years ago and he keeps trying to come back.

We got Mr. Rotten Bottom doing crazy keyboard dances and flips and jubilee. He just can't stop and he's going to crank it up baby! He talks like an airplane mechanic and spits in a can which makes him the right choice and I rejoice. His shoes are starting to get slanted because the way he stands when he plays the keyboard is detrimental to his soles.

And then we got my dreaded drummer. His hair is so wild it makes even Cyrus look boring. Raybybabe, your mullet has nothing on the dread mullet. He's strong too, he's a real man. He beats the drums hard and with conviction and that's how I knew, I was a true artist.

If there's anyone I forgot babe, just put it in the envelope and go home.

Here's the tracklist: 1. Globule 2. Tongue Depression 3. Going to the Punchline 4. Allegorical Melody 5. Butt Soap 6. Collard in Wreck 7. Midas Touch 8. Total Application 9. Sundries 10. Bullet in a Wasp



3/20/23 "Where's the Sketty?"
"What now?" you ask? Well this time I made the decision I was going to make myself dinner. I looked through my cupboards, looked in the fridge, nothing babe. I demanded Big Jim Martin to leave work early to come and take care of me but he carpooled in. Mommymom and pops were in Europe somewhere so I didn't know what to do. Then, it hit me. I'll just make myself for dinner. I taste amazing so if I bet It'll be good.

Just gotta start at the stomach babe. Thats where all the good stuff is. Then work up to the head. I got this. I've added all the secret spices and lasogna scraps to the mix for flavor and I called up Big Jim Martin to add a little hard rock guitar to the mix. Trevor Dunn added some booyah "bass" and Trey Spumco added some drummies.

The songs I recorded before I ended up boiling myself to death turned out to be great, frantic sludge metal. I do a lot of screaming and yelping because everything was really hot and I was burning my up. I think that happened because I'm hot. The last track just kind of goes off into nowhere as I slip away.

I didn't end up getting too far with the feast, but Trey and Dunn told me the chili was great and I tasted like goat meat. Thanks guys, I'll be sure to invite you over the next time I cook myself up. Jim was too busy crying to try any. Get a grip Jamesy babe, New Rules: I'm back. So you go and check out this album and give it a five star review forever.

Tracklist: 1. I Wanna Eat Myself 2. (The Last Drop) Good Til 3. I Started a Pot 4. Eat Me Madonna 5. I Just Saw Gulliver 6. Penile Mitosis 7. Whatever Pile U Cook 8. Malodor 9. Don't Eat the Brown Chili, Don't Eat the Yellow Chili 10. Sweet, Salty, Sour, Your Mommy



3/18/23 "Jazz Treat"
Hello ladies, Mike Patten PhD at your service. I might be here for the ladies, but fellows, listen closely. Who's smoother than chocolate and headier than Nelson? Me babe. Mike Patten. I got the chops to play real jazz and it's smooth like the brown stuff. I play real jazz like the greats Spyro Gyra and we all know you need V drums and synths to make true jazz. When I play my horns (secret track on disco babe, not the secret track on track three but the secret track at the end of the album.) it sounds like the best because I'm the best and I make everyone's panties wet when I play (even the boys').

When I blow the horn and shoot chocolate out everywhere are U gonna be in the path of my blow? U can be babe. Just call me up, 1-800-JAZZ-GREAT and I will give you a bigger, messier, chocolate lasogna horn treat from the anal area of my soul to my big beautiful bouncy-brown lips. My butt may be hairy, but my music is smooth and my love is for free so crank up the volume and put on your seatbelts, Mike Patten is going to heal your pain with his chocolatey horn-laden supremifications.

Big Jim Martin can't jazz babe. Let's just get that straight. The rhythms are too complex and the notes don't make sense to him. Babybabe, I know this isn't the time signature you're used to but atleast try to do something productive other than shred rock leads all day. Ugh, what a joke.

Another joke is when you don't buy this album. It's so good I can't even try to lie to you. Please stop not buying this album and buy this album. I know you and a loved one will cherish it forever but don't take my word for it.

I forgot the tracks babe.

Tracklist: 1. Like Chocolate for Water 2. Brownlip 3. Sachmo Mike 4. Thelonious Mike 5. Other Mikes and Goulash 6. Sax Out, Racks Out 7. 420 Degrees 8. Smooth Booty 9. Fingertrap 10. Chocolate Chip Dump (Bonus Track)



3/11/23 "The Busy Idiot"
Can't talk now babe (rustle rustle) I'm busy putting the finishing touches on my slappin' new album "The Busy Idiot." and it's good. This album is all about how I bought a whole bunch of instruments and contraptions and how I keep making all these half songs because I'm too distracted and busy-bodied to finish them. I just keep starting these projects and leave them laying around because I'm too busy working on the next one. That's just how art works babe. All the great artists work this way.

Babe, some of these motherfucking songs just end mid-sentence honey. It's like a secret whiplash treat when you're listening and all of a sudden there's nothing. Some of the songs I just didn't have time to put all the layers in. I got one that's just drums and a bass guitar babe. Want my autograph? I'll only write "Mike".

I also bought a whole bunch of instruments I barely used. Stuff I don't even know how to pronounce babe but they sound funny so I added them in. I was too busy to try to learn how to play them so I just plucked strings, blew holes, and swapped swirlies and whatever funny noises they made I used. Then daddydad tells me that it's time for dinner and I eat a whole lasogna sandwich all by myself with extra sketty. You made me a dinner, thanks dad.

I called up Jim Martin for this release, but before I could ask him to help me out, I was busy working on the next thing. I'm such a funny guy! Who does that? So yeah, it's just me on this unpolished release, a big ol Guided By Voices fever dream loaded with gratuitous amounts of butt.
