This Is Where the Fish Lives

This Is Where the Fish Lives has the following crap planned for the upcoming album:

• A new soundtrack for Un Chein Andalou — so far, I’m hoping for it to be a synth and viola piece that will be on the album and *maybe* I’ll do it as a single, too. Since the film itself is Public Domain (yay!), eventually I’m going to find a way to release the film with the new soundtrack, but since I’m not talking to anybody at any little art-house film distros, it’s probably going to be either on DVD-R or via Lulu.com.
• I’m also working on a piece based on reading of an excerpt from Poppy Z Brite’s Exquisite Corpse. I have an e-mail from the author granting permission, and I feel like an ass-hole that I’m just now getting around to doing it, but sometimes you just have to find the right people to execute an idea (and it’s about as hard as you think it is to find somebody who can say “sugar candy ass-hole” with a straight face). Since the book was published by a division of Simon & Schuster, I’ve been examining “fair use” clauses and what-not and because it’s such a small excerpt (barely a paragraph), it can be easily argued as parody without debate. Either way, it’ll be available on-line, at the very least.

I’m probably going to get a few other ideas before I can feel safe in saying that the album is complete, so as it stands, I’m probably not even going to look at being done with this until maybe December of 2007. Maybe.

I’m still hoping for maybe an improv performance in the very near future, but it seems like it won’t be in April.
