Sophomore Lounge

***ANIMAL PISS, IT'S EVERYWHERE started in 2018 when Clark Griffin and Shannon Ketch started writing songs about cheap wine, themes on Jesus, tributes to bands like the Fugs and Boa Constrictor and the Natural Vine.A tape was released by Tony Pasquarosa's 4th Eye Musick that circulated among hardcore scene ramblers and record heads across the US. It seemed like interest was growing, so Griffin and Ketch started to ask the hot players around Western Mass and New York if they wanted to lend a hand and the band then started with members of Rhyton, Pigeons, Bunwinkies, Gluebag, Wet Tuna, Salvation Alley Band and BLAMMO!Soon enough, in 2022, they decided to record their first record with Mike Fellows behind the board. That record came out on the Half A Million label in late summer 2023 and sold out quickly, so they put together short tours where songs like 'Hot Sewage,' 'Naked' and 'Pink Dolphin' seemed to get people off their feet and out their minds.Then they decided "well, fuck it, let's record a second record!" This one, to be titled "Grace," had some beach'ier vibes while poking a little more at class warfare; Mike Fellows engineering again. It came out dual-released on Half A Million and Sophomore Lounge. 'The Beach Song' and 'Pay The Dues' got people up and bobbing at shows yet again, Tony Pasquarosa throwing himself all over the stage and Clark Griffin looking like a crazed wildebeest with a pair of maracas. It was fun!So now, they decide...

Half A Million

***BACK IN PRINT!!! Gem piled upon gem of woozy, VU-tinged cosmic American music delivered by some familiar Western MA faces (PIgeons/Sunburned/SQRM) will surely excite fans of early Drag City, Gene Clark, Country Teasers et al. Lyrical content explores the enjoyment of inexpensive wine, the enjoyment of wine having been transformed from water by Jesus, nude perambulations, remorse, and spiritual consternation. "Because piss flows from us animals, and is as natural as spring water—and holy water, for that matter."
