Extra Lens- Undercard [Digipak]
Comprised of John Darnielle (the Mountain Goats) and Franklin Bruno (Nothing Painted Blue, the Human Hearts) The Extra Lens began as a potential home for any song John wrote that had a) more than three chords or b) a bridge. New songs for the group only happened when John figured he'd written something that Franklin might find clever or amusing, although at least one such song, remembered as "Anti-Witchcraft Song," is lost. Recorded with Brian Paulson and with Mitch Rackin, Undercard is the first Extra Lens record to arrive as a full collaboration between songwriters.
Tracklist:
- Adultery
- Crusierweights
- Only Existing Footage
- Communicating Doors
- Programmed Cell Death
- How I Left the Ministry
- Some Other Way
- Ambivalent Landscape Z
- In Germany Before the War
- Tug On the Line
- Rockin' Rockin' Twilight of the Gods
- Dogs of Clinic 17
