Sic Semper Equis
Once upon a time in the 1990s, there was a magical forest filled with ungulates, both mythical and real. These creatures lived as any other creatures lived until one day when word spread that there was a terror upon the horizon: the evil millenium bug! This was no ordinary bug, though, this was a computer bug that would change the face of life as the forest creatures knew it if they didn't do something soon, as the catastrophe was scheduled to descend as the clock struck midnight on december 31st, 1999. This album is their tale.
Everything on this is by Russ Woods except the lyrics to The Forest Knows, which are by Mike Lightning and Patrick LaBahn, and the music and lyrics to 1999, which are by Prince Rogers Nelson.
This album is dedicated to PJ Famicom, whom I love.

I like the concept album and the sound and ideas, but I miss your voice. Don't get me wrong I still like the sound, but you haven't sold your soul to the vocoder have you?
I explained the album to Janice's 50something year old roommate and he chuckled and said, "They'd better update their Cobalt programs".
