​Published By Lords Of Rock & Sons (ASCAP) 2016.

JJR – Disclaimer To Anyone Offended: GFC and JJR did not write a syllable of the lyrics on “Break (3 Protections)” so should you feel the need to come cash in your reparations, don’t come barking up the wrong trees. We will however gladly accept our respective 33.3% cuts of the song royalties. Seems only fair. As for the music, I love what CCL created here. The middle section is a high point for Erratic Markers and reminds me of another band from the Midwest that I too have been known to be influenced by, and that is none other than Cheap Trick.

GFC – Equal parts Bad Religion and bad religion, what could possibly go wrong? The three of us were definitely firing on all cylinders for this one. And that solo starting at 1:23 is a thing of twisted beauty. Psst, Stewart? I owe you for the inspiration for the outro. Call me. 

CCL – The first finished song of the endeavor from CCL, a full embrace of the Make Rock N’ Roll mission statement of the album (as opposed to the Make Whatever The Hell approach of old, you see). This one is here as a polite request to consider the fact that a seething crack has emerged in the Earth and unidentifiable things seem to be crawling out and slithering toward us. It’s a nursery rhyme, see? And hey, dig that Collings on the solo. Pretty rad. So, listen for the guiro part or the Lovecraft or the groupthink, there’s a li’l somethin’ for everyone.
