Dennis recorded this instrumental version by himself after we worked on the Lovitt Soccer Team 7”. Dennis wasn’t playing drums with us yet; he was strictly working the engineering side of that project. But he quickly wrote this song after that session with Soccer Team in mind. It sounds like the drums were recorded after the guitar and bass tracks were laid down, which is a bit harder to do. The working title for this song was “College Rock” until Jason came up with vocals.
Lyrically, there are themes present that make sense if you know Jason. For example, he’s from Arkansas, his family has farmland, there was extensive property damage there due to a Midwestern storm, and … there’s a story from Jason’s childhood about a burning field that you should let him tell ‘cause I’d probably get the details wrong. Or you could listen to this Olive Juice song and try to figure it out for yourself:
