Annotated Discography:
Lyle Hysen: Hoboken needs a lot of things beside
pizza and nail places, and an 8 track studio is one of 'em. I was hanging
out a lot with Fred Brockman, and he thought it would be fun if we ran
a studio together. He was wrong. Oh we got along fine, actually having
some good laughs at the expense of the unknowing talent. Since a control
room wasn't an option, Fred and I had to invent hand signals so the
talent wouldn't know what we were saying. In the long run all I was
trying to say was: "Can I leave yet?" Fred worked really hard, and did
some great stuff, and like most things, well, you figure it out. "This
Is Art" is a compilation with mainly bands in the practice space with
Snack Time Studios. Oh that crazy Unai... It was all his idea, and well,
I really have nothing but bad memories about the compilation. Yo La
were pissed about how small their name is on the cover, and we got into
a fight about Fed Ex expenses. Eventually everyone else on the damn
thing broke up and Fred moved away. My favorite fact about the record
is that the title "This is Art" was done by fellow ex-Das Damen member
Alex Totino. I only found that out AFTER the record was released.
