We’ve been away for a while to record the new record and were sidetracked by an acoustic show for J and Leigh’s son John but we’re back on track now. Bass and drums are done now it’s just up to Altman and Murf to get the guitars done. Stay tuned for new tracks soon!

Say Anything

They say that if you left a monkey with a pen and a paper long enough he would write Shakespeare at some point. Well we taught Murf to use a computer and low and behold…

Our Fearless (Mindless) Leader

admin — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 15:54:16 +0000

For those of you who don’t know, our official mascot since 1995 (or possibly 1848) is Mr. Phineas Gage. AJ Cretin has memorialized Mr. Gage on every Cretins album cover so that we all may learn the inherent dangers of brain surgery. Especially with whiskey as the antiseptic and anesthetic. Oh well, you do what you can with what you’ve got. We’re still around right? Enjoy.
