San Francisco's Sad Eyed Beatniks new album provides a catchy lo-fi pop and a perfectly weird mixture of Television Personalities obtuse, retro 'no track' production and subtle faux jangled melodies. It doesn't have too much of a cohesive story to it, but it encompasses a good amount of my last year and a half: flipping through old Life and National Geographic magazines, taking long walks through San Francisco, and playing Sad Eyed Beatniks live for the first time. Thanks to Mike Ramos (Flowertown), Karina Gill (Cindy, Flowertown), and Kati Mashikian (April Magazine, The Red Pinks and Purples), we were able to play through a number of these songs before I sat down to record them. 

Prior to this, most Sad Eyed Beatniks recordings were the first or second attempt at me writing and performing the song. Suddenly, I had to remember both the words and chords and played tracks like "Hysterical Rooters", "Who's That", and "Oh Hallo" well over ten times; which is pretty unheard of in SEBs history. Fortunately, these are paired with impromptu tracks like "Free Composition Number 6" and "Ring Around Annie"; as first takes are often the best takes.
