I... do not remember there being a data partition on this CD at all 😮

...I guess Mac OS did not auto-launch it, and I never noticed it was there.

...this is a good album and like anything #KenAndrews produces and/or mixes it sounds amazing, and it is very #Failure -esque as one might expect.

It's been a long time since I tried to look up anything about the project, which was pretty short lived; they put this out, did one tour (I think?) and disappeared. Ken put out a solo album just a few years later so I always assumed something didn't work out right. #yearOfTheRabbit
