about

Everyone Gets Crushed – 2004, Duck Kee Studio, with Jerry Kee. Appears on the Kill Rock Stars compilation Tracks and Fields.

Laura: I don’t remember anything about this one! I think I had my robot self do it. I like it, though. It came out in 2004, so we must have recorded it around the same time as “Freaks in Charge.” I like how melodic it is. It made me think about the Monkees just now.

Mac: We went to Duck Kee to record something for the Merge 15th Anniversary comp, and we had the music for this but I had no lyrics; I added the vocals later. Mood-wise of a piece with “Freaks in Charge” for sure. Bush/Cheney-era angst.

Jon: I’m with Laura on this. No memory of the song nor of its recording. The drumming sounds too good to be me. Now I’m paranoid they got Kenny Aronoff to play on this.
