My future band's first album
| I hopped in my time machine again for a short trip to the future. While there, I saw my future band Elefoot's first album "Disremember Me Not" in future Tower Records. |  |
Unfortunately, they seem to have figured out digital rights management in the future, so I can't upload any of the songs, but I can tell you they rock! And I do have the track listing:
1. Disremember
2. When I Say Go
3. A Backpack in My Rucksack
4. Domestic Policy
5. Ella Had It Right
6. Wintergreen
7. Not So Jonesin'
8. Instrumental
9. Yes Yes Yes I Said Yes
While I love the single Disremember -- power pop at its future best -- I have to say my favorite song is the anthemic set-closer Yes Yes Yes I Said Yes. It's 8 minutes long, building from a slow acoustic opening to a driving, almost symphonic climax (thus the Joyce allusion, I guess) at the 5-1/2 minute mark, before an extended coda that could have stood alone as one of the better songs on the album. Great stuff. Can't wait til I write these songs.
Good news! I bought some Elefoot T-shirts and brought them back with me. They are for sale at the Reclining Pig store.

I could definitely see Elefoot making an appearance in FROM AARON TO ZOE. Write that book!
