Metal Expert: This song and video are not metal but they are heavy. The video itself is a vital document of what will soon be known as the last vestiges of Coney Island, one of the last mass places driven by people rather than commerce in New York City. Tall Firs and friends underscore this by making their own fun out of found objects on the beach. In short, the song and video made me want to give up on life overall.

As now an unruly mob has gathered outside Glass Rock Offices, where flaming embers of fury are burning out and giving way to tears, we are promising to never use this picture again. “It just makes your actual music sound so excessive like a [censored] atop a speaker playing Led Zeppelin and undermines the irony of post-taste.” -[Fan] Thanks to everyone so much for your feedback.
Shameless, Nameless, Another Man’s Sac
Nicknames denote affection, personality, and the engendered “making fun of” that only someone thoroughly loved and respected can birth in others. Glass Rock and Tall Firs guitar player Tubes Mullan has struggled gnashing teeth for years in the nickname-less wilderness with no shortage of bewilderment and hurt feelings not to mention very sore teeth -heh heh- Well, during Glass Rock’s recent pow wow at Echo Canyon Studios, the band took a chance and began calling Tubes “Aaron.” Suddenly “Hey Aaron,” or “Help me Aaron, or “Salvage this Aaron,” or “Can we hear that again without guitars Aaron,” became as oft heard as expletive-expletive-dog-drugs in the control room. Said guitarist Dave Mies, “This thing just stuck. It felt so natural to call him Aaron.” The origin of the name is unclear, though Aaron of the Bible seems to have been the go-between for Moses between well, Moses and the Royal Court of Wherever-The-Hell-They-Lived. How this applies to Tubes we might never know, but from here on out, it’s Aaron for life. Congratulations Tubes! We mean “Aaron!”
