Status: Complete

Gavin: And besides being terrible, we were completely out of tune. It
was so horrible. We had songs called "Little Snail" and "Rat King."
Travis: "Dead Mommy" was their best song.
Gavin: It got really scary towards the end there because Jason kept
wanting to play more and more frightening songs like "Dead
Mommy" and "Satan" and really frightening heavy metal.
GW: So, there's no competition between the Teen Titans and the
1,4,5s?
Travis: Just for practice time.
Gavin: The Teen Titans barely ever practice, and we never practice.
We should talk about that last recording session. We were gonna
record these two songs for this Unclean thing and also the song for
Travis's bicycle thing.
Travis: So we wrote these two songs, one for the bicycle record and two
for Roger's record, and we hadn't ever practiced them or learned
them, we just knew a little bit about how to play them. I asked Dean if
we could practice and record, and he was like, "Well, okay, why don't
you rent an hour at the practice space?"
Gavin: And we'll learn these songs and record them in an hour!
Travis: All of us are fifteen minutes late, and we practiced for fifteen
minutes, and then we tried recording - no, we practiced for thirty
minutes -
Dean: We recorded for the last ten minutes or something.
Travis: And then Dean comes come and mixes it and is like -
Dean: "Yeah-hey! Sounds great, guys!" And then of course they're
unhappy. Sounds good to me.
Dean: Me and Anna think of it as a joke, and they want to rock out
more than we do.
Travis: Well, we think of it as a parody too, but we think of it as a
rockin' parody. I love garage rock a lot, but I would never want to be
in a generic garage rock band.
Dean: You'd rather be the generic garage rock band.
Travis: When the 1,4,5s break up, I wouldn't want to be in another
band that's just a garage rock band. I think it's really cool to be the
most generic garage rock band, that it, like so generic that it's not
generic, it's the only -
GW: Garage rock parody band!
Travis: Yeah! That's about the only reason to be in the 1,4,5s, I think.
