the final album from the rories 1.0. within a year the band was to transform into a full working band with multiple members! the inner workings of was created after keith had played with his friends in the chicago punk rock band, pal and a transition is on prominent display in these songs. edging away from the raw garage of the first albums towards a more art-punk style – the music is slightly more complex, the lyrics are more aware of the world and the overall sound is a little tighter. some of these songs – te vas a caer, the means and destruction construction would resurface again with the rories 2.0. all songs conceived and recorded by keith helt in 2003. track 11 by lou reed. track 17 by sonic youth. 64 minutes.
