Album Notes

Inverse Room is the musical alter ego of novelist J. Robert Lennon. He resides in a basement in Ithaca, New York with a dehumidifier, eight guitars, several drum machines, and many synthesizers, and is occasionally seen performing in public with a thereminist and a guy who uses pocket change as a percussion instrument.

"Simulacrum" is the premier American work of dorktronic, folkadelic geek-rock, gathering into its shaggy embrace the diverse influences of neo-primitivism ("Cavemen"), retro-headbangism ("The Golden Shred"), gordian acousticism ("At The Dump"), and Casionic quasi-surrealism ("Liberty Village"). Employing such exotic instrumentation as a pan of water, birds, a boombox, walkie-talkies, kitchen matches, and a bag of cat food, these fifteen songs are guaranteed to find a home in your credit card bill, your heart, and the floor of your car.
