1.	Na Zdravii - Not Even Drunk - An Intro 00:32	lyrics
May I present to you, the very serious musicians involved in making this album.
2.	The New Road Safety Advert Theme Tune 01:22	lyrics
I've always thought 'the blastbeat road crossings' in Czech were great, and now I've been able to make a song from their sound.
3.	L550 Has Gained Sentience And Requests Your Demolishment 01:05	lyrics
You didn't expect that the printers would be involved in the robotic takeover of the planet, did you?
4.	The Angry Hanging Clacker Gods Of Tibet 01:14	lyrics
Feel their fury. Their growing rage. Thunderous might launched across these wretched lands.
5.	Office Noise; The Interview, The Demonstration 01:25	lyrics
The song that started it all. The Littlemouse needed something recording for work and I was in 'fuck about making music' mode. The two situations collided and thus this album was born.
6.	Čistič Ulic - 6am Sonic Massage Version, Not The Godflesh Album 01:16	lyrics
Dedicated to a masterpiece: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streetcleaner
7.	Antonína Poledníka - Tram Soundscape Number 10 in F Minor 02:00	lyrics
Extreme trams make extreme noise music.
8.	Overwrought Brambory Syndrome 00:54	lyrics
The sound of steaming spuds. Now that IS music to the ears!
9.	The Kiss Of A Ledge Hammer 01:11	lyrics
12 minutes of the sounds of shelves being put up.
10.	The Pouring Of The Ceremonial Usquebaugh 01:06	lyrics
Seriously though, the glug of a freshly opened bottle of whiskey (and wine for that matter) is literally music to the ears.
11.	Mass Alcohol Decanter Ensmashment During Post-Jamboree Calm 01:45	lyrics
Recorded outside Klub Futra, the day after their birthday party, 6/9/20. Lyrics: It's not going to fall down because we're not touching that one, are we? They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. They are going to kill us. Watch out. Watch out. Watch out. Watch out. Watch out. Watch out. Watch out. Watch out.
12.	At The Skate Park In Orlová With Dogs And Our Water 01:45	lyrics
I don't think anyone else heard this skate event the same way I did. I had a fair amount of Czech lager that day! But, yes, I was also staying hydrated!
13.	Smash The Haricot, Slay The Saplings, Feel The Gloop 01:47	lyrics
Blending beans. Man cutting trees outside. All sounds can be danced to!
14.	Giraffe Parrot - A Symphony For The Old Train 01:59	lyrics
Recorded on the Prague Central to Smichov train. I'm sure it was one of the first trains ever made.
15.	15 Minutes of Mouse - RIP Amy The Noise Maker 01:44	lyrics
The main 'noise' part was 15 minutes of Amy The Mouse shuffling around her house condensed into a minute. Ever the 'trve kvlt' noise artist, this is the only recording ever released by her.
16.	Hava Nagila Played Outside Albert Supermarket In Orlová - Radujme se 01:50	lyrics
I totally wish I had filmed these guys playing. It was great, on a nice sunny September afternoon, families around, quite the weird setting, but glad I caught some of it. I've always liked this tune, and the octave up and down and whirling noise additions sounds so nice to me. It makes me smile.
17.	Last Stop, Hranečník - Tram Noise Concerto Number 4 In C Minor 01:01	lyrics
All great things must come to an end, so here is one last little noise flurry to close this chapter, in our lives and in yours too. I hope you enjoyed it.

All the sounds for this emotional rollercoaster of a journey were recorded in September 2020, whilst in the Czech Republic. Made up of 'found sounds' when out and about, or household appliances and oddities.

The Owl - Vocals, bottles, clackers, potato, printer, whisky
The Littlemouse - Vocals, bottles, blender, beans, hammers

Manipulated between September 1st and November 29th 2020 by The Owl. All glitch 'tunes' are made from the original sounds.

Also featuring:-
The Orlová Street Band near the Albert Supermarket, Man with treecutter, Czech trams, many dogs, various local council services, traffic lights, and special guest, Amy the 'trve kvlt' noise mouse (RIP).

Thumping, pulsing industrial techno with dark & edgy ambience. I love the distorted metal-like vocal elements. If they remade Akira, this release would be a perfect score! PadraigC

Suspenseful and Eerie. Each track tells a story. Spirits haunting a boneyard and aliens scanning the wreckage of a battlefield are just some.of the images brought to mind. Michael
