does anyone have this album?
it's such a gorey story.
The Gorey End, Writer/Illustrator Edward Gorey enjoyed 'Banging in the Nails' so much he sent us a large box of his unpublished stories, some of which we adapted and turned into songs. Then, before he could hear them, Mr Gorey passed away. So sad. But here are those songs, with the Kronos Quartet providing strings and barks, on our new CD The Gorey End. We think he would have enjoyed them. If he hadn't passed away. Tragically.

Sun, October 31, 2004 - 7:20 PMI went to see the Lillies at The Famous Spiegeltent a few weeks ago, they were incredible and Adrian Huge cracked onto me after the show. They're fantastic.
And perfect with Gorey. -

Wed, November 10, 2004 - 10:29 AMI'd have to say my favorites from this album are "Trampled Lily" which made me cry when I heard it for the first time last year, and "Gin" which is just an awesome and hilarious song -- practically a polka.
I'm seeing the Tiger Lillies tonight in SF and I'm already so excited I can't breathe! -
