Album Minus Band
''Album Minus Band'' is the debut full-length album from DIY collective Bomb the Music Industry! It was recorded by ex- Arrogant Sons of Bitches frontman, Jeff Rosenstock, in a bedroom. The album contains “Unlicensed cover songs. Unlicensed audio samples. Great times.” It is available for free download on the band's website, as well as on Quote Unquote Records’ website. The title of this record would go on to inspire the name of a fan-sourced tribute album entitled "Album Minus Jeff". It was released on vinyl for the first time in 2008 through Asbestos Records. In a 2015 interview Rosenstock said "This record was kind of terrifying to make, but it was also really honest. It's a really fucked up sounding, pure record from someone who doesn’t know how to use a thing, recording-wise. It got me out of whatever shitty path I was on had I not done this." Rosenstock continued: "I think this record is the spirit of the whole Bomb the Music Industry! thing. If you can't afford som ...

Bomb The Music Industry! Albums
A bomb is an explosive weapon that uses the Exothermic process, exothermic reaction of an explosive material to provide an extremely sudden and violent release of energy. Detonations inflict damage principally through ground- and atmosphere-transmitted mechanical stress (mechanics), stress, the impact and penetration of pressure-driven projectiles, pressure damage, and explosion-generated effects. Bombs have been utilized since the 11th century starting in East Asia. The term bomb is not usually applied to explosive devices used for civilian purposes such as construction or mining, although the people using the devices may sometimes refer to them as a "bomb". The military use of the term "bomb", or more specifically aerial bomb action, typically refers to airdropped, unpowered explosive weapons most commonly used by air forces and naval aviation. Other military explosive weapons not classified as "bombs" include shell (projectile), shells, depth charges (used in water), or lan ...

Arrested Development (TV Series)
The term "arrested development" has had multiple meanings for over 200 years. In the field of medicine, the term "arrested development" was first used, ''circa'' 1835–1836, to mean a stoppage of physical development; the term continues to be used in the same way. In literature, Ernest Hemingway used the term in ''The Sun Also Rises'', published in 1926: On page 51, Harvey tells Cohn, "I misjudged you ..You're not a moron. You're only a case of arrested development." In contrast, the UK's Mental Health Act 1983 used the term "arrested development" to characterize a form of mental disorder comprising severe mental impairment, resulting in a lack of intelligence. However, some researchers have objected to the notion that mental development can be "arrested" or stopped, preferring to consider mental status as developing in other ways in psychological terminology. Consequently, the term "arrested development" is no longer used when referring to a developmental disorder in mental he ...

Shut Up You Fucking Baby
''Shut Up, You Fucking Baby!'' is a double- CD, live comedy album by David Cross, compiled mainly from shows performed in Portland, Oregon, and in Atlanta, Georgia, Cross's hometown. It was nominated for a Grammy for Best Comedy Album in 2003, but lost to "Weird Al" Yankovic's ''Poodle Hat''. The CD was sold brand new with an obi covering the top stating the title as "Shut Up, You ift flap for dirty wordBaby!" to accommodate stores that would object to the full title. Cross trolled potential buyers of the recording by having the cover deliberately designed to look like it has deep scratches in the cardboard of the Digipak packaging and titling the pieces on it after clichéd stand-up comedy topics, with none of the content actually having anything to do with them. The album was released on CD by indie-rock label Sub Pop, and on vinyl by comedy label Stand Up! Records Stand Up!

It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with pronouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter.

It was the band's only album recorded for a major label, and was their last album with drummer Evan Sult. Written and recorded and over the span of 16 months with producer John Goodmanson, the album marked a substantial departure from the Lo-fi music, lo-fi sound of the band's debut ''Where Have All the Merrymakers Gone?''
