For those that are unaware, I spent the better part of my twenties playing with some of the most interesting, exciting, and generally weird individuals in a band called Even Homer Nods, later shortened to the Nods. We shared the stage with many good bands, most notably Yo La Tengo, Dead Meadow, and Faun Fables, to name drop a few. What I have for you here is our full-length that was never released (we broke up before it could happen…long story involving fire, mountains, hitchhiking, and copious amounts of beer. No joke.) so download and enjoy the fruits of labor from, in my opinion, a terribly overlooked band. Yes, it might be because I was in it.
