about

Cigarette Commercial originally appeared on our second ever demo tape, Arrangements. Arrangements is long out of print and is now ~rare~ so high five a nearby friend if you have a copy. On the Arrangements version I played the drums on cardboard boxes, on this version I used a machine. I recorded the machines in my apartment, and we tracked all the other stuff in Ryleys attic. Ryley and Kalio mixed it for a few days and Kalio mastered it too. He has special ears perfect for that kind of thing and he uses his skills as if they were a musical instrument and when you think about it they are one and it’s all about perspective. Ryley cut up a bunch of go pro footage we took at West Edmonton Mall on a day off during our 2018 spring tour and made this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdLZNBChE5M. There is very little that Ryley cannot do, he sang harmonies on this recording and also while we were on tour once he ate a large side salad in one bite for 12.50. The 12.50 belonged to me and I was sorry to see it go but in hindsight it was worth it. I probably would’ve spent it on a pack of cigarettes.

Best Regards,

lyrics

Karaoke:

I caught a glance
Through wisps of smoke
WHOA OH

A game of chance
A hazy cloak
WHOA OH

So you’ll know that I’m no square
So you’ll know that I’m not scared to die
Oh no, not I

I’ve got one left
And it could be yours
OH YEAH

Our recklessness
It will be adored
OH YEAH

And they’ll know that we’re no squares
And they’ll know that we’re not scared to die
Oh no, not you, not I
