Death of the Author Brigade (With a Little Help from Don’t Tell Betsy)

I'm In Love With The Boy Next Door

Photobucket

'Boy Next Door' is a bouncy little tune about a girl taking "Being Neighborly" to the next level. Who lives across the lawn from you?



This is very exciting. A while back, Kat of Death of the Author Brigade stepped in and did an unbelievable guest vocal on 'The Undead' by Don't Tell Betsy. Well, these two incestuous bands are back at it with a brand new song. On 'I'm in Love With the Boy Next Door', Kat is dazzling on lead vocals, while Carissa from Don't Tell Betsy chips in with some heavenly harmonies. Aaron (he does keys for both bands) rocks out on the keys, and Daniel (he has contributed to every recording produced in the last 35 years) pretty well does everything else. Special thanks to Ivan from Croatia too!

Kat, the hardest working woman in Showbiz! This is one of her finest vocals with the band.

Carissa has been with Don’t Tell Betsy for about six months. She obviously hasn’t notice how old the rest of us are yet. We keep distracting her with Jr. Mints.

Aaron started playing with Death of the Author Brigade at 14. Now he’s 17 and plays with both Author Brigade and Don’t Tell Betsy.

And Daniel just does all the rest.

Shabby Road Studios returns to Sanctuary Entertainment

Well folks, Don’t Tell Betsy was back at Sanctuary Entertainment and we weren’t taking any prisoners. We are deep, deep, deep into the recording of two new songs. (She Already Knows and On My Mind) Thousands of man hours have been spent to ensure that you, the listening public, get the finest musical product modern technology and 73 dollars will buy. Now you are about to gaze upon the glory that is musical Rome.

Just before we start the recording session, Barry takes one last look at his bank account online to see if he really has to put up with these assholes for the next 4 hours.

While on a small break, Carissa is suddenly transported back to her nightly fantasies about the Tin Man’s hat funnel.

Photobucket

Kevin stands resplendent and calm. The wisdom of the Gods lay beneath his sublimely quaffed pate. There are no words to describe, nor song to adequately herald his ultimate supremeness.

Photobucket

Ellis waits for just the right moment, to jump up like an avenging angel and sucker-punch Barry in the back of the head.

Big D. tries to figure out how much the band would save on the session if he stole all the toilet paper from Barry’s studio bathroom.

“Where the fuck did they find a goat in Encino?”

Photobucket
Darrell suddenly realizes that the goat video wasn’t going to work and it was now eating Barry’s Pekinese.

Photobucket


This is the only way Carissa can record her vocals and keep members of the band from licking her.

Photobucket

“Hey Barry, I think your gold clock is busted, man?”

Photobucket


“For some reason, my boobs smell like Aspercreme.”

Photobucket

Darrell and Ellis wait for the perfect moment to tell Barry that they don’t have any money.

Photobucket

“Boy, if I were David Carradine, I could just chop his fucking head off with my hand and fill up this empty coke bottle with his spurting blood!”

Photobucket

Ellis dreams of a day when he’s so famous that he can always dress like Corporal Lebeau from Hogan’s Heroes.

Photobucket

The morning sun only rises so that it may catch a glimpse of his comely countenance. The moon and the mighty ocean work in tandem so that the tide may humbly lap at his blessed feet. Though empires may rise and fall and towering fortresses crumble to dust, the name of Kevin shall forever remain in the hearts of man.
