Hello, rarely-spoken-to-list of collected extremities.  We hope you're 
wearing the right helmets.

We've begun to make some of our albums available in their entirety 
online at http://www.archive.org/  This place is like a hot-dog stand 
that also sells little pointy flags you can hang out your car window.   
We are impressed as if we were made out of something.

The first album available is God, I am the Lunatic.  There's not much to 
be said about this thing.  In fact it's possible that I just don't want 
to say anything about it for fear that its soul will then be stolen.  Or 
I'm too lazy to describe it.  Or I hate it.  OR.  So just briefly, it's 
a sort of single piece split up over 10 tracks.  There've been some 
reviews of the thing, the best of which was in Dead Angel 
(http://www.monotremata.com/dead/), but that site's down right at this 
moment so quotes and direct links are utterly impossible to come up 
with.  You'll just have to trust your spectra vision.

So here's the overly-long link to the audio:
http://www.archive.org/audio/audio-details-db.php?collection=opensource_audio&collectionid=God_I_am_the_Lunatic

from there you can get WAV files and flac files and mp3s and all sorts 
of otherwhat.   You can stream it, if you're lucky. 

Eventually we're going to try to have some downloadable artwork in a 
form that'll make it easy to print and staple and connect to your ass.  
Currently all of the artwork is stuck behind the metal filing cabinet in 
the abandoned and booby-trapped offices of the last printer we tried to 
have do a limited run re-issue re-release re-package re-ass of the thing. 

We'll be putting up the complete /A Translucent Gold Statue, A Hole/ 
shortly.  After that it's anyones guess.  Obviously there's a lot to 
choose from.  We're taking requests, as long as they're accompanied by 
envelopes full of cash.

Inadequately,

Kingo "H" Sleemer
Mentor to all the little people


(Note: It's possible I've gone trigger-happy on the blind-ccs here.  If 
you've got this twice it's because you're on the mailing list but I 
didn't know it and I added you to the extra-special part of the field 
thingy up there.  If you've got this once and you didn't want to get it 
at all you can let me know; I'll probably start adding some of you to 
the actual mailing list so that when we do another update, 12 years from 
now, I won't have to dig through the old boxes of shirts trying to find 
email addresses of people.  If I've not said anything to you in a year 
and a half and you hate me now because this is impersonal garbage, I'm 
at your mercy and begging for a sandwich.  If you didn't receive this 
email but would like to receive it in the future, you're in a state into 
which I cannot fathom how you've fallen, and I'm afraid we're going to 
have to reboot the shit.)
