Put out on the Humpin' In The Back Room music label June 16 1995 as Humpin' 011. It was our third album following the release of No Pressure. This was our first recording that we were not scared to have people listen to. It was recorded onto 4-Track May 13th 1995 and was from the same recording session as Don't Let A Stranger Touch Your Body. which would be released August 11 1995. We thought about putting all of the songs we recorded onto one tape but we decided to split it into two separate albums. Coffee being a little less then 30 minutes.

At the time we thought this album was our greatest yet. Which was true if you lump Don't Let A Stranger Touch Your Body into the same mix. During the recording session we put down onto 4-Track Dirge Intro, Sunone, Crap, Disco Edna (two times), Searching For Giant Squid Part #1, Out Of The Cave And Into The Light, Trilogy 1,2 and 3, Anthony To Power Of 7, Sleepy Bonehead, My Heart In The Real World (by Minutemen), Ray Is Gay, Asshole, Don't Let A Stranger Touch Your Body, Smells Like Teen Spirit (by Nirvana) and So Plain.

Singin' for your supper:

After this recording was put out we quickly went to bars and handed it out as a better demo for our music.

Get a haircut and get a real job:

Unfortunately that never happed. However we did end up selling all of the tapes. As of June 17th 1996 it was listed that we had 12 Coffee, 17 Stranger and 5 Pill tape albums left for sale. Considering we only made up 50 or 60 or each.

AC/DC was right, Church was wrong:

I said hell...ain't a bad place to be!
