The Self-Titled Extended Play

Monkey Throw Feces has managed to cause the following to emit sounds for your listening pleasure: an acoustic guitar, a pair of larynxes, a didgeridoo, a dog, an electric razor, a metal bowl with a wooden spoon, a telephone, stubble, a Tupperware with fingers, moistened lips, a kazoo, and a computer.
The Self-Titled EP was recorded in Flemington, NJ in 2001 and 2002; in New Brunswick, NJ in July 2004; and in San Francisco, CA in December 2004 and January 2005. The songs were recorded and edited using various versions of Audacity (audacity.sourceforge.net) and a cheap Radio Shack microphone.
Monkey Throw Feces would like to thank Gail Dwyer, Sean Fletcher, Hassan Gouled Aptidon, Rachel Bitterman, Alistair Hennessey, Tom Servo, Emily Montgomery, D.H. Banes, Hannah Stubbs, Ian Malcolm, Art Garfunkel, Debbie Jellinsky, David Levinson, Hazel Huffman, Seth Brundle, Cheryl Lang, and Calvin Stanhope for all their love and support.
Not sure how to characterize this. Maybe somewhere between They Might Be Giants and really weird stuff from Eerie Materials. Way more tracks are enjoyable than you might expect.
Well, it's not like there's really music, or like the sound is good, or like those little things are well writen. But at least that was fun sometimes. Towards the middle it gets boring (Jingle fart and some other stuff), but just before that I think I've heard a lobster, so it's ok.
I like the two pop songs.
But I had great expectations for the Ode to Art Garkunkel — too bad.
