So the album releases on Friday, but it's on Bandcamp already

Go ahead and take a download code for it!

You can’t prove it. This is a perfect pubski. I won’t tell you anything.

It is a pubski of meager means, but we make do with what we have. This is where the real party is. We have pruno and badges.

I made a glitch art thing. I think it will be the new album cover, which I intend to wrap up very soon now.

I'm engaged! We've only been together 10 years, so it's not like that much has changed, but still!

So regarding my recording hangup I posted about before; inspiration has struck and I've committed to making a mini concept album about the russian sex lizard satellite.

Two tracks are well underway and I have many ideas/clips floating around for the other stuff. It's gonna be a mix of guitar/bass and synths. I need to get some beats together though: sequencing percussion is new territory for me.

I don't know if there's gonna be any lyrics, and I'm pretty sure I won't be doing any signing, but I'm still brainstorming ideas for it:

* formation of an orbital lizard communist micro-utopia

* 1m5f lizzard love hexagon side story

* Stalin reference

* something about fruitflies

So lyrics are coming along pretty solid I guess. At the very least I think I want some Russian radio chatter. I already have a Russian countdown to blastoff, but I couldn't find any stock narration about lizards in space in Russian.

Anyone speak Russian?

Since it's relevant, I stumbled across a thread in r/askhistorians (one of reddit's best subreddits) that is directly related to this:

How deeply was the US involved in Pinochet's coupe in Chile in 1973?
