Embodiments of Craving and Aversion

Embodiments of Craving and Aversion is Stale Urine's first recording on CD. It contains a healthy mixture of old SU favorites (including the soon-to-be-definitive new versions of ``Horse In a Smelter'' and ``You'll Be Alone When I Throw You In Jail''), new songs, and, of course, a couple of pieces of conceptual trash to keep our fans happy.

Bowing to corporate pressure, most of the songs from the SU ``greatest hits'' catalogue were gloriously re-recorded at Seattle's SuperChronic studios and mixed directly to the digital masters. With the superor fidelity of Embodiments, the listener will finally be able to hear just how bad we play.
