At the end of the day, our favorite thing to do is to rock out like several ferocious lions, bears, and mystical lionbearmonkeys soaring through the reaches of outer space. To hear some full-length samples of songs you should: check us out on itunes or become friends with us on our myspace page.
Ahem – Uncle Monsterface the rocking rock band has created, in earnest, THREE ‘rock albums’.
All are currently available via iTunes (see sidebar)!

‘Nintendode’ – 2006
1. I’m Sorry (But Your Princess is in Another Castle)
2. samus aran, you are the man
3. Bring Back the Eggplant Wizard (song for Gunpei Yokoi)
4. lost here in hyrule, how i long for…
5. MIYAMOTODE (song for Shigeru Miyamoto)
Nintendode was released in tandem with Nintendo’s newest console, The Wii, on November 16, 2006 as a gigantic geek-Tribute to go hand-in-hand with our unbridled excitement about the new system (an excitement that has gone on to become completely founded in reality!). In all honesty, Nintendode is more of a conceptual EP than rock album, being that it is all of 8 minutes… But it is MIGHTY! Please note: although we occasionally do short-runs of the disc and sell it at shows, it is basically only for sale online via iTunes.

If you like what you’re hearin’ (and how could you not?) it would be Super-Rad if you would buy the whole rock album in order to support our mightiness. Every cd you purchase = 1.76 monsterface wishes come true (and/or monsterface sandwiches eaten…)
Huzzah! We have also been included on a couple of compilations:
————–
“Harry and the Potters Magical Christmas of Magic” – 2005
We appear, very sneakily, as “Cousin Wizardface” (in order to keep with the conceptual continuity, and to have an opportunity to wear floppity hats…)
‘In My Room of Requirement, It’s Always Christmas’
(it’s awesome)
————–
That very same X-mas, we appeared on Landing Party Records annual Christmas compilation:
“Christmas Today”
It is about a giant robot that drinks the blood of elves, and longing for the Sega Genesis. Sometimes, we are asked to play in front of small children.
If you are clever and interested enough to have looked this deeply into our lore, this song is all yours. Just click on it! And don’t say we never gave you nuthin!

And before anything else, we created an experimental EP Called ‘Piece of a Heart Container 1′ it went like this:
1. chocula
2. lionfist
3. prairie dogs
4. lobster building
Basically, it was an early EP so that we’d have something to give to people and clubs. The songs ended up on letter green almost unchanged (we did some stuff to them, but I doubt anyone would notice besides us). The original concept was that we would do four EPs all together, each EP a ‘piece of a heart container’, like in the video game Zelda. When you put them all together, you’d get a WHOLE heart container. We were silk screening these magical little doo-hickeys, it was time-consuming and crazy. We abandoned it in pursuit of letter green. But it is a neat relic, and if you have one, you’re pretty cool.
rock.
