Lotion-IMHO

[Tod Mahony]

After fading out to that 20 minutes of silence, 
the last song on the EP fades back in.  By the 
time the song goes away actually and for real, 
the singer (like the listener) is reduced to 
barks and screams ("stop! aaaaagh!"). It's just 
the band poking fun at itself -- even without 
the 20 minute intermission, the song seems 
interminable.  Apparently it was the first song 
they ever wrote as a band, and I think it shows.

Tacking hidden tracks after huge blank "songs" 
at the end of a CD has become a pretty common 
practice.  Also a pretty annoying practice for 
anyone trying to use the 'random' play mode on 
their CD player.

Agnew's Funeral is OK . E.P. has six songs;  only five listed.  the last 
seems to be 20 minutes of silence.  I thought cool a free-be but what a 
jip.  What's the point?
