The Clever Whatever (MP3 album)

In a small suburban town in the mid-1980s, three high school classmates, disenchanted by popular radio, decided to make music of their own – rife with inside jokes, obscure references, and non sequiturs.

Details:
Inspired by the likes of David Byrne, Jonathan Richman, Elvis Costello, Television, Brian Eno, Jethro Tull, The Residents, Bob Dylan, and Negativland, their songs are often subtly reflective of the obsessions and confusions typical of the male teen-age psyche.

Through the miracle of digital technology, Aluminum Tadpole’s underground sound is now catapulting forth into the new millennium like a bat out of Meat Loaf’s hall closet. Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear, when a Fostex 4-track cassette recorder represented the pinnacle of bedroom home studio technology, and served as the weapon of choice for guerilla musicians everywhere.

When not watching bad horror movies or listening to records, the members of Aluminum Tadpole would occasionally have an impromptu jam session, recording music with whatever equipment was immediately available. The result: A sound that ranges from crass to touching, inept to jazzy. "The Clever Whatever" is a collection of non-methodical, improvised pieces, and showcases the band at their most spontaneous. Live, with few overdubs.
