This was our first "serious" attempt at making music. We spent a few days writing songs separately and then recorded them together in my basement. We both liked the results and this time I saved the tape and created a cover for it.

We still called ourselves Apostrophe. After we finished the album, I discovered that Frank Zappa had an album called "Apostrophe". Since none of our friends and family thought our missing-audience reference was funny, we decided to change our name to something more obviously self-deprecating: IPECAC.

I created the tape cover after the name change. There might have been an earlier cover, but it probably sucked.
