Corby and I have been talking about a good and fitting title for the recently surfaced demo tapes.
We both thought that Nuclear Barbeque was a damn cool title, and Corby put the title in the following draft for some cover art:

We want to know if you guys have any other suggestions that would be fitting.
I think Srb should get veto power over the title.
That's a rad cover.
I'm really interested to hear what Nuclear BBQ sounds like...
Cheers,
Pat
I just refer to it as "The Tape". Makes it mythical and mysterious, just like it really is. Well, until we get more info. I'd call it "Times Are Passing Us By" if I had to name it after a song on the demo. I think it's both the best song on the demo and a great representation of how much the band has evolved and matured since these recordings.
srb(in the other thread) Wrote:If I had $0.02 to put into it, I think incorporating pictures circa the self-titled EP or Up To Here would be a nice touch, seeing as this is like peeking 20 or so years backwards for the 1st time.
I originally wanted to use some period pictures, but the only ones I could find weren't a useable quality. I could easily replace the one I used if someone had one. But, I did like the mix of the new and old.

Why don't you put up a poll with the following 3 title suggestions, and go with the winner in 48 hours or something?
1) Nuclear Bar-B.Q.
2) Times Are Passing Us By
3) It Came 'Round

I think that's a great idea.
Let's wait a day or two before we start a poll so that more people can see this thread and give their suggestions.

Also so we can all hear the demos, too. But absolutely let's take a vote.

A bit of a breather is a great idea. Maybe somebody will come up with a dead-ringer for a title suggestion from some of the new lyrics.
What an exciting weekend!
My Internet will be off all week, but I'll make sure to duck into a friend's house to vote. This whole thing is just so exciting! :jump
I don't know if an official "title" is really necessary...Just calling it "the tape" sounds cool enough...
"The First of the Unlocked Gems" take it or leave it
