DRIPPING, SOPPING: A SATURATION CELEBRATION
A Very Dripping, Sopping Holiday EP


(released 12.22.2011 / CC 2011 the Loss Foundation)

"Artist's" desperate entreat to the would-be listener (consider it your Xmas present to me, eh?):
This "record" was meant to be listened to loudly, and definitely NOT on laptop / iPad speakers.

1. A Father's Gift
2. Joseph's Lament
3. A (Red) Ring For Christmas
4. Master Santa
5. A Father's Gift (Slight Return)


A lyric sheet is here, but you might want to try picking the words out by ear first.

Also, if you like this, you might like the earlier DS:asc EP from 2007. Or not.

DS:asc is basically R. B., except:
Bass on "Joseph's Lament" and the verse sections of "A (Red) Ring For Christmas" by ¡Kernel Sanders!
Guitar solo on "Joseph's Lament" by CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAWYER

Written and recorded extremely quickly and badly between 12/12/11 - 12/20/11 in various places about Oklahoma City
(but mostly in one particular place about Oklahoma City, near NW 23rd and Classen)
Recorded and mixed by R. B. using REAPER 4.x (http://reaper.fm)
Other nerdy details on the super-cheap gear used here (seriously, this is ONLY for total gearwhore nerds).

Hey, did you know-- all songs are ALSO by R. B., except:
"A (Red) Ring For Christmas" based on a suggested song title by Lin T aka Soopageek
"Master Santa" based on an utterly ludicrous and indefensible concept suggested over the phone by Sandi L-G at the desperate, last possible second
Bonus track, demo version of "This Christmas (On The Fourth Of July)," contains small elements borrowed from compositions by Walter "Jack" Rollins and Steve Nelson, Lee Greenwood, and Francis Scott Key, all used gleefully without permission, in the name of liberty.

No Apple products were used in the making of this record.

Remember, it's just comedy... or "comedy."
No need to take offense to anything, as I'm quite sure I didn't actually mean it anyway.
Thank you (so much) for listening, and sorry. It's dumb. I know. ...I know.
