Listen: [ preview via MySpace ] 
We'd like people to listen to our new album when it comes out in 5-10 years, because that's our strongest material yet, but from what's available right now, our favorites would be "Put the Dead on Parade" and "The Joy of Smoking." Anyone who wants to listen can stream our albums from our website. They can be bought online various places and some mp3s are up for free download at www.morningsiderecords.dk.
Which of your songs is your favorite, and what inspired you to write it?
Which one of your children is your favorite, and would you consider killing your other offspring to make this child stand out even more? ;-)
What kinds of non-music skills do musicians need?
You need to learn to give people the impression that you are hopelessly in love with your day job.
What's the best thing about being in a band?
The beauty of creating something with your friends. There's this whole non-verbal language available that you don't have with your other friends.
Current favorite instruments or equipment:
We have this new thing we call a 'psychophone'. Don't know what it's really called. It's like a vibraphone, except there's no vibrating. Anyway, at the moment, whenever we are recording and we need to give things a lift we all look at that thing. We don't even have to say it out loud. Hey, there's that non-verbal thing again...
