Sauvie Island

A short, two chord song that is a true story.

We went to Sauvie Island with the Highland Cattle, and we burned one of them and ate him with friends.


Thanks to sleepy pete for some editing!

I dub thee: Canabalistic Animal Collective. Also, fucking awesome.

Is that a siren at the beginning? This is pretty awesome, although I would tag it "scary," if I were you. The effect of the whistling and the thumping and the sort of droning vocals is a little unsettling. Which is a good thing.

Heh, I hadn't thought of the song as unsettling, but I can kinda see it now. It's been so long since I submitted a challenge song, maybe I should just do it to make up.

Thanks for listening!

The Microphones! Did you happen to stumble upon my cover of "Headless Horseman"?

uncleozzy, I forgot to say that is indeed an accidental genuine Portland siren at the beginning. For some reason I thought that city had extra eerie sirens.
