EXTRA INFORMATION:

We started writing songs for Ticked in the late summer of 1994 as our foray into alternative music. The project developed in an interesting way; whereas most of our previous parodies had told specific Bible stories, many of the new parodies addressed Biblical issues (suicide, atheism, evolution, hypocrisy, the end of the world, separation of church and state, etc.) Although people always expect humor from us, many of these songs had a jagged little attitude, hence the name, Ticked. In the three years that followed, we waited for the proper equipment and finances to record, while weathering some personnel changes, too. Some of the songs written for Ticked endured, some didn't, and new ones were added ... but the title stayed.
