Hey there Travis, now that it\'s August and everything, would there be a possibility that you could share the tracklisting of this sure-to-be-excellent album with us?

I know I\'ve probably mentioned this before, but I like finding out the tracklisting in advance so I can ponder what the actual tracks will sound like when I get the album.

So Travis, how about a tracklisting for all the fans?  

The track listing will be of no help on this one. This is not a normal music CD.
There is a lot of music but there is a narrative and samples and combinations of music, samples and narrative. I posted the bit I did because in contains a little of everything.

But if your so inclined...

This sounds very interesting look forward to it.
Thanks Travis

good! the vaguer the better.

thanks!

Some of the track listings seem a bit hostile when compared to the sample provided. One reference I found pertaining to the title is from England in the 1800's when the front claws or ball of a Mastiff's forefeet (or other dog breeds presumably) are cut off to prevent them from "running after deer". This was done to prevent injury to the king's deer and make them a better watchdog to protect the home. A way of controlling a beast. Mastiff's are huge, strong, courageous  dogs (like a boxer). I am not exactly sure how this pertains to boxing  but a boxer needs to be controlled – he can't punch anyone he wants, there are rules to follow. The "Boxer art" on the cover and title (if my reference is anything close to accurate) partly suggest to me that the hostile track titles are used to convey emotions or actions that seem cruel yet maybe necessary in an unforgiving world. Many ideas are flooding my brain and I need to think about this more but maybe I'm onto something (can you throw me a bone Travis?) Or.... maybe what I think has nothing to do with the album concept and I just wasted time on the computer when I should have gone to sleep.  :-/

Thank you Travis! very intriguing track titles....

Very much looking forward to hearing  Running After Deer... my curiosity is piqued and tweeked even higher!  
 

BIG HUGZ!  

Duckhead, I like the way you think.

Thanks for the tracklisting Travis!

I already had a gut feeling that this wasn\'t going to be a "normal" album, and even though the titles of the individual tracks may not give us an insight as to how they sound, I am still intrigued by them. That is why I like to find out the tracklisting, it kind of fuels my desire for the album itself and whets my appetite.

Can\'t wait to hear this, I bet it\'s going to be a 100% unique listening experience.

"Maybe It\'s Because Your An Asshole".  That\'s a song I\'d like to hear.  Maybe you did this on purpose like in the movie Dodgeball, but "you\'re" is the short version of "you are"...not "your".  Sorry to be a gramatical asshole.

It was in fact a mistake. The artwork was corrected and the "your" fixed. I just grabbed the wrong one to post. I\'ll correct that. Sorry what that does to your theory.

pregnant man wouldnt happen to be a reference to the hawaiin woman who got a \'sex change,\' moved to Oregon, and got pregnant? which resulted in many people thinking that a man became pregnant... in america??

I am on to something here.

QuoteDuckhead, I like the way you think.

Mahalo for the compliment Travis, that totally made my day!

Travis, have you ever caught a deer? As much as I have tried, those buggers always outrun me.

Hey Travis, August is slowly rolling in, any word on an exact release date?

I was thinking the same exact thing actually, glad someone else asked the question first.  

But I really want to know a bit more precisely when I can plunk down my cash to get this gem.
