(selected text taken from the Surgical Renaissance Merchandise Appendixx)Surgical Renaissance presents: SURGICAL II [double c20 cassette + 18-page collage zine]"SURGICAL II was lost. It was our favorite. It disappeared in a Bud box in a basement flood. Gone forever, morale was at an all-time low. It was never meant to happen anyway, these sounds. But they did. SURGICAL II is the transformation scene. The doctors come into their own. Mud Daubber Wasp thus born, and conversate with Bird Rig. They chatter, like old women dirty and wasted. Like trash, squirrel. Surgeons on whip-its, on their own anaesthetics. With Hannah Montana they explore jazz, punk, jazz. One day, Pam found SURGICAL II. The Doctors were confused. Was this SURGICAL II? Possibly, we're high. Wait yes, it is SURGICAL II – like all good things, well-fermented. Recorded live. Comes with collage zine by the band in fancy case with nail trick."---
Surgical Renaissance presents: SURGICAL III [c60 cassette]"To make up for the tragic (false) loss of SURGICAL II, we had to record something better. So we did. SURGICAL III is the surgeons in top form. All gear is represented and in functioning order. Proud use of auto-tune. The birth of the "retard zone" which later proves to be a key Surgical influence. Recorded shirtless on redbeer on a sweltering August day. Our first ever Stereo recording. Feel the dungeon. Comes with XXX mini-poster."---
