Take a blender. Put equal amounts of Ragged Glory, Oranges and Lemons, early Cure, distilled Alice in Chains and melodic instinct inside. Hit the button. Watch

Kevin "Minimus" Schwartz lives in Southern California. As a young man, he didn't like to go to family picnics, and did everything he could to get out of them. His grandparents drove a Chevy camper, so Kevin thought everybody's grandparents drove Chevy campers. Vicious wolves did raise him. And yet...kind, gentle, loving - these are words that Kevin means, and vice-versa. Who could have known? Scott "Hesh" Lang also lives in Southern California. He's been playing guitar for a very, very long time, much longer than anyone typically plays (or plays with) anything. Scott attended Royal High School and played drums for the marching band. If there are 3 people in the band (and there are), Scott is one of the band's 2 married members. Scott's a recent convert to the movie "2001: A Space Odyssey," and after his first viewing - although I can't remember any direct quotes - if I may paraphrase, Scott said, "That movie was just fucking unbelievably fucking awesome." And if I'm correct, the other members of the band chuckled knowingly. Michael "Eno" Miller is one of 3 band members who live in Southern California. Mike's been playing bass for about 14 years, keyboards just as long. Mike is a legendary Sonic Youth fan, he played clarinet in high school, has been seen devouring the Dark Tower series, used to be a Dodgers fan but isn't anymore, loves Counterstrike, hates assholes, has a couple of dogs and lives on a tree-lined street. He travels all around the country to ride rollercoasters, which leaves many questioning his sanity. Mike once had a friend, BH, who was maniacal and had no manners. More than once BH would be on Mike's doorstep on a Saturday at 9 in the morning, ringing the doorbell and demanding entrance. BH ended up marrying a nice Mormon girl, and now lives in some godforsaken Utah town, fixing brakes. As someone once eloquently said, "Who's the clown now?"

Story behind the song
The story behind the song? The same as the story behind any mad-pride fiesta, friend. Hurt feelings resonate through plastic and metal just like they do through flesh.
