E FOR EVERYONE Out Today!



E FOR EVERYONE is out today! You can listen to the ENTIRE album now via our site and pick it up while you're there to have it shipped to you right away via KK HQ! Prefer to purchase E4E digitally? Head over to DIGSTATION and CD BABY!





We'll let you know when the album is processed and up at iTunes/Amazon and expect that in a few weeks...

THANK YOU again to all the Krackleheads, creators, family, and friends who supported us through the recording of E4E. It took many more folks that just us to make it happen and with any artist, it's important to recognize that!

This week we're gearing up for EMERALD CITY COMIC CON and our CD Release show featuring MARVEL Comics Editor-In-Chief Joe Quesada as he rocks the stage with us!

Without further ado, let's review the final 4 songs off of E4E!



DUSTY CARTRIDGES & LONG BOXES

We wanted to write a song about a perfect night with that perfect someone, and maybe what might seem to be a perfect night to some of you as well. The delicately stripped down acoustic finger picked songs is the more basic track on E4E and something that might not be out of place on a John Denver album...if he wrote songs about making X-Babies. Aw yeah! A nerd fantasy (ours anyway) rolling right 2 minutes and 46 seconds of spending some sexy times bagging and boarding comics with your certain someone...

"There's not better place to be when you bag and board my comics you're always careful with the crease...CGC says 9.3 but you're a 10 to me..."



GOING HOME


"Going Home" is a song we were commissioned to do for the LONG BEACH COMIC CON back in October. We were asked to write something that we felt summarized the convention experience and what better way to gain a storyline than to take it from the 7 conventions we had already experienced throughout the year! That is, minus the whole waking up in the hotel room "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles" style. Those aren't pillows!!!!!!

"We're Going Home! We're Going Home! To the place where wild nerds roam! With pretty girls and dudes in capes! Going to cons is our escape..."




GREAT LAKES AVENGERS


We had room for 2 more songs on E4E when we went to a Pearl Jam concert last October in Seattle and after soaking in the concert, we KNEW we wanted to bring the rock to round out the album. Sometimes you have inspiration strike you in the way you least expect it, but after that show we in no way wanted to perform concerts this year with out playing hard...and fast. This is the most manic sounding song on the album and good reason since it's from the perspective of a hero auditioning/getting rejected from every major team of heroes out there again and again. Despite the failed attempts to join the Green Lantern Corps, JLA, X-Men, etc...the hero in question is repeatedly approached by the GREAT LAKES AVENGERS; the most useless band of heroes ever assembled under the sun. Sometimes though, heart goes a long way...and free beer always helps too.

"I got a message from the GREAT LAKES AVENGERS, they offered me a membership but I did not accept cause they're a walking disaster...like a narwhal with a fireball they don't make sense at all..."


CAN I WATCH YOU?


Aw, the song that when we wrote it was debated over drool induced laughing on the floor and pounding on the side of the wall so the dog got freaked out.
We've come to realize that for better or for worse, there are some things that once thought of need to be created and fully realized. Are all these things appropriate to bring into this world? Not at all, and most we come up with actually should be repressed...like "Can I Watch You?"; a song that is from the perspective of MARVEL Comics character "The Watcher" the all knowing, all-seeing Celestial. But hey, just because you're 3 stories high with a big baby head and a wear a toga don't mean that you can't gets yours, right? RIGHT!? If Uatu is gonna sing a song to his boo, why shouldn't it be in the form of a 70's love jam over sexy ass guitar and a slutty solo? Slutty indeed. Oh Watcher, you crazy baby...you crazy.

"I never instigate, IKOR didn't raise no fool. You say I instigate, you think it's hot...Celestial bad boy from the blue side of the moon, you like the things I do, things I say I never do...but I still do...so call me UATU!"






That's a wrap, and the most damage we could do on disc #2! We hope you like our second offering and now is when the fun for us all starts! Shows! Concerts! Conventions! Con Sars and shaking hands with people that just sneezed on our cd players!

WE CAN'T WAIT. :)


True,

Kyle and Jim

So very, very enjoyable. I look forward to getting it, but will settle for the gidget for now.

I really hope you guys will be able to make FanExpo this summer.

This is helpful because I couldn't even figure out how to spell Uatu to look it up.
