lyrics
Across the world the birds arrive to settle.
The late Jurassic conjured me and put me on the slate
to graze and fade and remain within it.
The savannas of ferns that will turn to Colorado,
where I'll one day be named official fossil of the state,
with plates over my spine, doubled and staggered,
making the strangest of all constellations.
Behold the thagomizers at the end of my tail! Quadruple spikes float high behind.
But that's not all we are: a pebble, and a star, and a soul combined.
When predators appear at any hour,
protection of this kind is necessary to survive.
We teach our offspring to pivot and swivel their bodies
to swing what they've got in a fight.
Most of my days are devoid of complication.
The lifestyle of a herbivore is basic bad or good.
Eat, sleep, and defend; self-preservation is the priority.
Travel together.
And don't forget to keep the population up.
Reproduction is a must for dinokind.
But that's not all we are: a pebble, and a star, and a soul combined.
The late Jurassic conjured me and put me on the slate

making the strangest of all constellations.
Behold the thagomizers at the end of my tail! Quadruple spikes float high behind.
But that's not all we are: a pebble, and a star, and a soul combined.

The Golden Bonana
by Mr. Afternoonsupported by 7 fans who also own “Stegosaurus”
Welcome to the world of The Golden Bonana. This album feels like good vibes by the campfire, the safety of a friendly yellow gorilla guiding you through the wilderness, and hot coffee on cold night.

supported by 5 fans who also own “Stegosaurus”
An excellent collection of powerful pop songs which reminded me of bands like 'The Pillows', 'Sloan' and, more recently, 'Lykantropi': simple song structures and smart lyrics belieing the skill needed to create such brain worming rock 'n' roll executed with verve and passion. I wish some songs were longer but, would that make them any better? I doubt it. Like the best albums, it whets the appetite for whatever comes next.

The eclectic influences of this California group shine through on these creeping tracks, full of dark electronics and intimate vocals.
