Step two: Invite Aslak Nygren and Rune Annaniassen of the semi-legendary Norwegian band Sister Rain down to supply the recording session with their dark visionary lyrics, brooding chord progressions, and the phone number of the local pizza delivery place.

Step three: Temper the atmosphere by trapping Ivar Eidem of pop hitmakers Matchstick Sun in the same room for half a month.

Step four Let them do whatever they want while the tape rolls.

Step five Sit back and enjoy the genius results.

You only have to worry about step five. The other guys did the first four steps for you. So click on one of the MP3 samples to the left, marvel at how cool the grooves are, then swear to yourself that you will buy it as soon as it's released. Just like we did. Except that we paid a lot of money to have the record because we're a record company. You only have to pay a few bucks, because you aren't. Aren't YOU lucky!

Stay tuned for info on its release date.
