The first song is influenced by Helios Creed and is a bit of a tribute to his music.

The title “She Recoiled Diesel Chore Chiseled Roe” is an anagram for “Helios Creed Helios Creed Helios Creed.”

TRACK LIST:
1. She Recoiled Diesel Chore Chiseled Roe
2. Agnostic is the Most Scientific Position on Religion
3. Glassy Greasy Granular Onion Rings with the Vicar
4. So Many Fucking Stars, How Can We Possibly Be Alone?
5. Get into the Resurrection Canon
6. I Dig Your Moonly Ways
7. Leave your Cages Behind

FUN FACT: “So Many Fucking Stars, How Can We Possibly Be Alone?” is the first time in 92 albums that BipTunia has had cussin’….and it’s in both the title and lyrics.

Usually this stuff is instrumental, and when words, radio friendly. Just for fucking fun.)

…Except Cave chanting on Release the Artisanal Tardigrades by Sir Michael Higgins and a bipedal ape with a bad hip. And…

The Shoulder Thing That Goes Up has a bit of talking from a cool guy and a horrible woman. She used to have power, but now is back to yelling at strangers on the street, probably.

TRACK LIST:
1. Dord Density of Solid Metallic Hydrogen
2. Xenochrony My Xenochronous Xenochrony, All Night Long
3. The Shoulder Thing That Goes Up
4. Pentatonic Phrygian Open-Eye Visuals
5. Therac-25 Malfunction 54 in Eagle 53
6. Release the Artisanal Tardigrades
7. 56,000 Distant Suns Photographed from Our Farm Paddock

These songs are microtonal:

• Therac-25 Malfunction 54 in Eagle 53 (John O’Sullivan, Eagle 53 temperament)
• Pentatonic Phrygian Open-Eye Visuals (phryg penta: Schlesinger’s Phrygian Harmonia in the pentachromatic genus)

The rest are in standard 12-TET. However…..These are Xenochronous (Zappa’s technique of using intact parts from other songs in new songs):

• Dord Density of Solid Metallic Hydrogen
• Xenochrony My Xenochronous Xenochrony All Night Long
• 56,000 Distant Suns Photographed from Our Farm Paddock

I used parts from the BipTunia songs But you don’t look Sick, Marc Sporkolova, and I’m a Lone, Broke Cowpoke From Biptunia’s 27th album, and the song A Prominent Albedo Feature on Mars from BipTunia’s albums 53-54. I combined different synth lines and bass lines from different songs, but also wrote new parts around and on top of them.

ABOUT THE ALBUM COVER

Cover is a photo by Michael W. Dean of the Comet 62P/Tsuchinshan, and a bunch of distant tiny (to us) galaxies. More info and tech specs here.

ABOUT THE ALBUM COVER
“Gross Pathology of Normal Brain vs Brain of Patient Treated With Methylene Blue Before Death”, medical photo by Mikael Häggström, M.D. Image is public domain. Is half of this image on Wikipedia (whole image has whole brain, not just slices).

This photo is the album cover because it speaks to me. I saw it and was fascinated by it.

I didn’t use it for the gross-out factor, I don’t find it gross. I don’t like it when bands use gross or shocking imagery. I love the Butthole Surfers but didn’t like when I saw them live and they were showing graphic images of eyeball surgery on a big screen behind them. That seemed like shock for its own sake.

This blue brain and sliced blue brain medical photo isn’t shocking to me. It just speaks to me of what is the mind vs what is the brain, and what are we? Are we this little 3-pound universe that doesn’t look much different than our intestines, but is a powerful supercomputer made from the result of digesting food.

Is that us?
