Album Notes

Story:
Ho-Hum's 7th studio release boiled down track-by-track for easy digestion by founding member and record shop owner Rod Bryan:

1. ASSO -Tangerine Dream meets Freddy Krueger nightmare and wakes up looking like Dennis Hopper at middle earth.
2. Soon! - Morrissey fronts The Kinks jamming with the Grambling State University Sousaphone section.
3. Note to Self - Schizophrenic UTFO meets Tears for Fears with a bit of Babybird thrown in???
4.Directions -Boz Scaggs lost in the desert, begins to hallucinate...is that Damon Albarn?
5.High Roller Theme -Bored bass player + mini disc + sampler + turntable=Dwight Yoakam Techno
6. This is the Call of the Wild? - Outkast vs. The Clash destroy theme from Love Boat
7.Out There - I see angels you see aliens. Force MDs with help from Jesus/ Buddha/ Agent Scully
8.In the Eye - Hall and Oates, Springsteen, Tom Petty, Eddie Money?
9. Knock, Knock, Knock - Proof that Lenny Bryan should make a solo acoustic record. This is new territory song writing. Don't tell him I said this.
10.It's Better to Fly - Psychedelic Furs re-form, relocate to Bamako, Mali and begin aggressive weight lifting regimen.
11. Elevator Down - Dance to this and be hospitalized.
