about

With the exception of the recorder and vocal parts, which were overdubbed some time in 2009, the entirety "Toy Cannons" was recorded early in the summer of 2008. Initially intended as a long, minimal piece, a mistake in Joe's drumming and the ensuing frustration-induced freak-out lead to a much shorter, more violent piece. The final piano fragment, formerly its own entity, was added for good measure with the other overdubs, although it is nearly as old as the main song.

"Toy Cannons" has so far only been performed thrice: On this recording, once as a solo drum piece, and once live with Jeff and Julian performing auxilliary percussion. The results have varied.

lyrics

We raise our toy cannons to the air
But we dare not look at the sky outside
For fear of what is above...
