I saved a few copies for myself - and I'd like to see them amongst friends and fans.
Pressed in France in 2021 at the Diggers Factory using all recycled materials in a plant operating on solar power. These records are printed on Calcium Zinc, in potential health fear to vinyl. This record was initially shipped to the US in empty cargo space headed from Europe to New York anyways (like carpooling or something). I self released the initial 200 copies, this being essentially what's remaining.
These copies may have been played on my record player or spun at a party or something, but they're all in new condition. There are only 7 copies.
Includes unlimited streaming of Bad Weapon
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

Terror strikes! With nails for teeth and a fast engine that runs on fear, the dogs came. Their knowledge was limited, see. They had tussled and really effed with the Green Men in times past - but never had they seen a creature like Long Legs, our hero. Long Legs with his long legs, crab hands, bear ears and gilled neck, could fight them off, saving his team and their contraption to the best of their abilities. While Legs was able to stave off their unwelcome guests, they did make off with a shining piece of metal - a good luck piece some would say, that Legs had found on his journey up the mountain, before he had met his new friends. While he hadn't realized what the piece could do for him, he ascribed quite the importance to it, once citing amongst the boys "This thing will get us along, I just know it". In slight remorse, with an understanding that only could come from having a purple dog steal a piece of metal that you thought had "a real nice looking shine", Legs sat to reflect. One only has two options ever - it's the closest resemblance life has to computers - simply put - to do, or to not do. 1's and 0's. Now for Legs, even these options were limited, as not doing... well not doing just wasn't working. Legs sprang up. He danced. He spoke. He didn't care anymore. He couldn't play jazz, but somehow he could play it better than most who claimed to. The others joined him. The giant pink bird that dropped Legs on this planet was the fool - happiness lie ahead.
lyrics
I could be bitter
Like tea without honey, honey
And I could be stronger
But steeping takes time, not money
I’ve been tired for too long
Must have had the blues
I’ve been tired for too long
Now I’m changing my tune
I’ve been tired for too long
Need to find my muse
I’ve been tired for too long
I need some strong tea with sweet honey
I could be bitter
Like a snake is to the birds it’s funny
It’s funny how they’re all jealous
Grow some wings like you
Cause I’ve been down too long
I’ve been down for too long
Thought I could only lose
I’ve been down for too long
But now I’ve got no excuse
I’ve been down for so long
What a waste of my time
I’ve been down for so long
I need some strong with sweet honey
I could be sweet -but I could stand to be sweeter
I probably should -but I’ve been in hot water
But that won’t make me right
No more excuses, I don’t need it
Weary no more, lonesome no more
I’ll be me, a fresh me, a sweet me
And everything will be alright
