Hi Craniac,
No, it's not a secret but rather just never discussed. There's a great sign heading on the cape that says "Mashpee Sandwich" (an exit for two cape towns) and I always thought that sounded like a terrible lunch item. It may have even been the original first name.
Thanks for checking out Brambles. Pass it along to others! THanks!

Wait! He didn't write to me; I copied that part, obviously. Crummy system removed spaces...just clarifying.

Fellow BRENT OBERLIN wrote to tell me he's the first one to know where the name "Mashpee" came from. Good job Brent! (pretty sure I know, too.)It's a secret? Even from Him? "Brambles" is killer, btw.

great musicians...to date the most fun I ever had playing music...I loved playing in every instance, but playing with these guys was a blank canvas, and they humored my input enough toi make me feel like I had a purpose in contributing. I loved the guns, and the fact I could play the music face down drunk most of the time...I loved Table because I played with my closest pals...and TI was always fun to tour...wish I would have taken that more seriously...oh well...hind sight and all;) funny to hear these songs again. I left the band just as we were starting to gel. I think if I would have continued with Gary and Steve and Kevin, I would have produced some of the best drumming...they really brought it out in me.

I belonged to a leseer knon band named Uncarved Block we were sort of Taoist but know I regret using the analogy for Pu for a Trojan band that conqured the people of the Kalamazutra river, orwhateva. anywaiegh all hail the jewel in the heart of the lotus flower, power to the speaker. Any photos of us you may share are copywrite free and fell free to use them or boots to commerate our history for cyber-drunks and zippies. I'll send in some fleyers, we played with Konichi-wa, and also opened for thought industry and our last show was with the Godbullies. To bad our town turned so culture free; I liked the community filled with culture for regular and other soda people who found light in other people's hearts. If anyone wants to cause a scene, I'm still a singer and an industial programmer, we could get together and breathe love into the trees of Kalamaghana with some musicand gathering, I love your site, I had the same idea, preserving the People's history of the river and preseving recordings for as long as there are servers and IBM's. I can also help open a club providied we have a festival to raise money for molk and honey and o mani. Also considering Gibson guitar has a plant here shouldn't we have a Hard Rock Cafe? Happiness from plainwell - I'm seious about a club, it could be a great gift///

An Aduly Adipisci imagines Little Doorways Buried in the Ground
In pursuit in an army of children
An Adulty Adipisci is a eight song collection of tales of adult experience
such as having children, feeling love, and enjoying a good drunk drive home.
This is the seventh TASM Lab album, and like its predecessors, it is completely
different than the rest.
The spotlight on Jeff Till's new compositions are the harmonized vocals of
Kalamazoo legend Chris Bryers (Twitch, Sleet, Owlsa, Selling
Heaven, TASM's "Thing and Nothing", and now "Hazel and the Black
Rabbit") and now Bostonite and beautiful pipette Michelle Graf (Blue Dahlia, "Thing
and Nothing", "The Essential Cubicle Nosepicker", Tether).
The vocals sing gorgeous, memorable melodies in sometimes energetic sometime
sullen tones. Harmonies and melodies are layered and rich, but sometimes
lonely and stark.
The singing is supported by a live band of acoustic guitars, gooey del
palmer-y bass, acoustic drums, live percussion, piano, and an assortment
of strings,
bells, choruses and even birds and atmospheric noises. The sounds with
harmonies are often layered into thick walls of sonic dream, like the
first track off
of the Cure's "disintegration", a prettier part of MBV's Loveless,
sometimes even feeling like an orchestra.
The songs could be compared to The Flaming Lips "The Soft Bulletin",
Tori Amos albums, The New Pornographers, Sun Kil Moon, Burt Bacharach, Elvis
Costello, Fiona Apple, Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, The Cure, My Bloody Valentine,
The Church, Prince, David Gray, Peter Yourn, Coldplay, Adam Ant. Um. Elliot
Smith, Billy Bragg, The Damned's "Phantasmagoria". Maybe a bit of
sixties jangle in there, um, Webber and Lloyd, Henry Mancini...
Late stage Beatles or beach boys, as far as instrumentation, might
not be far off.
It's not totally unlike TASM Lab's "Essential Cubicle Nosepicker",
but there's a whole band this time.
You could also say it could fit into a Wes Anderson or Sophia Coppola
or other art-intellectual-quirky filmmaker soundtrack. This might
be the best
description,
because while the music is completely non-experimental and totally
pop-accessible, it avoids any established genre per se, much like
all of the strumming
and singing you hear in the inventive songs during movies like Rushmore
or Lost
in Translation.
Brent Oberlin says: "I listened to the whole album. Is this the order?
Is it a concept record? I remember you playing me "Love will Cloud" at
our visit. At times you pull-off a very good wall-o-sound/ Roy Orbison/ Bruce
Springsteen-type thing with the production. All the strings, piano, and strum'in
acoustics are cool. I really like "Army of Children", "Cool
Water", and "Love will Cloud"; plus the hickbilly/ super-outro
drumfills in "Lost in a Parking Lot" are fun. Did you sing on anything
besides "Souced Romantics"? MB and CB together again. I hope I haven't
said anything that makes you taste vomit."
You could say it's related in sound/trend to Chris Bryer's recent "Birds" and "Hazel
and The Black Rabbit" and the lighter moments of Thought Industry's "Short
Wave on a Cold Day".
