when a door is not a door



Prompted...
by Sheridan Dupre's very recent posting of the finis
hed piece from 1999's "Summerteeth", here is the working demo; forgoing both backing vocals and harmonica. While less is often more, I would have liked to have heard a version even closer to the song's inception - stripped of all convention of arrangement and sugar coated pretense.

Harrowing, perhaps. Uncomfortably hard hitting and brittle as shower-stall glass.

From studio sessions recorded in Chicago, Austin, Nashville, Portland, Los Angeles and North Carolina. Just as it says on the jar, if not precisely the tin.
