a couple of random songs

this afternoon i was listening things to recordings on my computer, things that hadn't made it onto an album yet. i like these two songs a lot, one is an amps song.

radiation burns - this is the only recording i have of this song, it was recorded a few minutes after i wrote it down, it's all one take recorded into one microphone, just meant to be a reminder so i wouldn't forget how to play it.

radiation burns

we like the amps.
bragging party (amps cover) - w/ gaurav playing drums
