Art Mayes also contributes vocals on "All Right By Me!"

Jewels in the Mouth of the Corpse was a long time in the making, or rather, a long time in the releasing, having been completed at the dog-end of 2007 and then sitting, sadly neglected on disc for several months. But now here it is!

ALL SONGS WRITTEN BY
LESTER AND THE HOAX
EXCEPT 9 WHICH IS A
RAMONES COVER

a concept album, about how stuff never happens the way you think it should.

instruments include
classical guitar, electric guitar, broken keyboards, drums, etc.

Demos for the album that would never came to be

Sort of a prequel song to the whole concept album

Catfish Savior was recorded over 2 sessions at Arkain Studios. All songs were made up on the spot, when the tape started rolling. Everything was played live. It will hurt you.

Recorded after one of UCSB's anti-nuclear protests on May 9th, 2007. Instead of feeling excited I just felt depressed and angry and recorded these songs using only my friend Ingrid's electric guitar and my (then new) harmonicas. Listening to these again I really like them, but they can be a bit much. I know some of you will like it.

Alexandra Tengco did the cover!

Raw sketches of my mind.

Secret garden rock!

Old school collective, ladies and gentlemen! Do any of you old timers remember this lass? Also, if you're wondering about track two, it flew the coop. Bam, smash, gone like creamed corn!

The Leisure Hive was written and recorded over a two week period in the summer of 2006, while suffering the effects of nicotine withdrawal. Physical copies of the album were released that fall on the Domestic Honey label.

Threee songss two lisstene too fore one ideea ofe whatt I's.

This album was sort of a sampler of what was to come of the debut album "First Strike On Unseen Eyes"
