So, I always liked the bits I saw from this old silent (now public domain) film. But, my attention span being what it is, I never had the discipline to watch the over-90-minutes of silence all in a row. The solution? I made a big long King Toad “best-of” compilation to serve as the Metropolis soundtrack &: voila! an artsy old film I can sit through. Sounds self-satisfied I know, but there it is. King Toad makes everything better! Anyway, I like this movie it turns out; it’s perty kewl.! I just don’t like the silence.
(P.S. I guess there are prints of this film that are 2 hours or more, and I bet some bits would make more sense with the added scenes, but for now I’ll have to be content with my 93 minute version.)

Why come if I used to do a “king toad” google search this site was the 1st hit, now if I do a “king toad” google search this site don’t show up a’tall? Do I need to use the term “king toad” excessively in all posts to remind the internet of my existence? ?? .
Update: Wow, that worked weirdly fast. Right back up at the top of the search results already? I don’t understand the internet at all. “king toad”
Hay!!ey!! Furious Skinny, the Band of 2 Monsters, just finished a cover of an old They Might Be Giants “Dial-a-Song” song: “The King of Wingo.” The cover was originally for inclusion on a Dial-a-Song tribute album, the plans for which have since been nixed by TMBG’s management. NO tribute album, OK!? The difference this effectively makes, I guess, being that now you can only listen to/download the songs for free, as opposed to paying money for them. The songs are quite bad mostly, don’t try to pay money for them. Furious Skinny’s track is a pungent and crusted pearl among the swine, but I was saddened to find that most all of the singers featured have such, um, difficult singing voices that one’s ears might easily become overwhelmed by and desensitized to off-key howling (a Skinny trademark) before they ever get to Furious Skinny (the final track on this non-album). Well oh well, right? Ya know what they say!!!! “king toad”.
