Apparently Mark is suing his neighbor over a tree. That’s not very punk rock Mark!

I just don’t think the production is as good on that album for whatever reason. Bass is too low, drums are too low imo. But i might be a little biased against the album. I think Asthenia is amazing but most of the other songs I could do without.
I agree with a lot of the others here. TOYPAJ is their best album in terms of tones and production. The lyrics just didn’t age well, and seem like they were forced when looking back. I was 14 when the album came out, and thought the lyrics were genius at the time, lol. But that just goes to show they knew who they were writing for.
The instrumental is great because you can hear the bass line a lot better in this song. Such a great bass line that I didn’t really know existed. It’s a shame Jerry had it so low in the mix of the actual song
