Fun, Fantasy, Confusion & Catastrophe

Another musical salad from the unsinkable 391, Fun, Fantasy, Confusion & Catastrophe is inspired (somewhat obliquely) by Alfred Bester's classic science fiction novel The Stars My Destination.

It contains original compositions, a couple of re-imagined tracks from the cassette No Easy Way Out, cover versions from the repertoires of, among others, Those Poor Bastards, The Mountain Goats and Neil Young, and a suitably blood-drenched traditional ditty.
