Album Notes & Community Reviews
Serving as a companion piece to 'Weasels Ripped My Flesh', this collection leans much more heavily into highly composed, tightly arranged studio mastery. 'Burnt Weeny Sandwich' is wonderfully playful and fiercely complex, balancing deeply technical avant-prog instrumentals with wildly eclectic, quirky doo-wop covers and modern classical progressive rock themes.
