I learned a long time ago that it's better to be lucky than
good...

I heard nothing beyond "next year." What Al played for us was
simply a set of demos at this point. But the demos themselves
sounded very full, very complete. It's ironic, because I
thought the biggest improvement of _Trepanation_ over
_Eponymous_ was that it sounded like a BAND. These demos were
even better than I would have expected...I don't know if Al
simply does very complete demos, but even the leads sounded
great (I was surprised, at first, when he told me that it wasn't
Pete playing the solo).
It's also nice, because the "voice" or "sound" of the BS is
becoming very clear. I think you can chalk up most of _E_ and a
lot of _T_ to Al+Deb finding a unique sound. It's really quite
apparent now.
I guess another thing about the demos was that they sounded very
LIVE (even though it was a drum loop). As much as I like
_Trep_, some of the songs are much better live ("Medusa" for
example). This stuff sounded very raw with a lot of punch.
Perhaps that's just demo stuff, but I hope it sticks.
No pressure now, huh Al? :-)

I have a feeling I'd have my ears chopped off should I say
anything of substance. The *only* thing I'll say is that
you'll laugh and cry (with delight) once you know.

Um, Ace has a really cool walkie talkie set? Al has a cool
Godzilla magazine? Deb has some Misfits albums? That's about
it.
