***"When Budokan Boys (Jeff T Byrd and Michael Jeffrey Lee) reunited in 2019 to record their new album, they were in bad shape. Byrd had recently lost his father, and Lee his brother. They decided the new album would need to address these losses—that it would be a 'death record'—but that it might explode the satire of their previous releases and move toward something heavier, more cosmic and more mysterious.
