For those rabid fans who requested it, here's a list of the songs we play or have played, along with links to lyrics and recordings when available. Useful stuff for those working on their The Totally Wired doctoral thesis.

Trashy guitar noise fuck you ditty. Just how we like it.

A dark and primal blast.
Come My Way

An endless jam on a cool riff that still hasn't coalesced into a song.

Psychosurf instrumental inspired by incidental artifacts of modern technology.
Enervator

Concisely stated jam with concisely stated lyrics. Love. It's like a magnet.
Moving On
Words & Music: Jay
Jay's Bo Diddley dispensation; always ends on a miracle.
Not for Me
Words & Music: Jay
Jay's punk dispensation. What the hell does "punk" mean anyway? Now on the back burner pile.
Not Good Enough
Words & Music: Jay
Recently penned snappy rocking dis.
Outta Here
Words & Music: Jay
An old old old one that's evolved into our traditonal bluesy rock opener.
Premonition
Words & Music: Jay
Quick and punchy in the recent Jay minimalist style.
Run
Words & Music: Jay
An early one that always elicits shouts of "more e-bow!"
Starlight

I suggested "I'm Coming Up Your Ass" as a catchier title, but Jay doesn't think that quite captures the mood.

Also known as "Baby Grab My Rusty Stick" (at least by Russ)
Tall Glasses

One of our early classics. Sung by Jay.

You could drop this one in the middle of any MDID album and never know the difference.
Tonight
Words & Music: Jay
Tonight, two guitarists will wreak sonic mayhem while the rhythm section keeps time.
Wild
Words & Music: Jay
A very early one that evolved from "Vagina Vagina Vagina" as conceived during the Shawn era.
You're Gone
Words & Music: Jay
An early one that has seen multiple lives asymptotically merge into the current semioticopsychic groove.
