kiss the Cadaver

about

Poor old Julius. The Nick Drake of his generation, I say without fear of being taken remotely seriously. We'd set him up in cheap digs, a Housing Co-operative of some kind, but the youthful vigour of the place didn't suit him. He wrote two songs in seven years.

Julius was not a happy bunny. He wasn't a rabbit at all, in fact. He was more like a meringue.
It didn't come out well when we dropped him.

This was an eponymous release, regrettably. Julius was run over by a truck on the way to buy helium from a party shop in order to commit suicide. He played an absolutely blinding game of pick-up sticks and could butter things really quickly. not bread, just.. everything else. Lasted 40 minutes at Prét a manger. He was still wearing the apron when the police asked me to identify the body. I still have this apron, in memory of this poor troubled soul. Clean the bike with it.

I say the release was eponymous, when in fact it wasn't released at all. we left the CDs outside the warehouse for collection and they got run over by a truck. So it goes, eh, Kurt?
