jacobdobner - the 13th song on the CD is called "Supernova" and it
is listed on the back (top center) of the CD tray card. If you're
referring to the other, more upbeat song that appears at the end of
the CD's 13th offical track, that would be Frankie Stein's "Bodies
Under The Bridge." Frankie Stein and his Ghouls was the band
credited with putting out a bunch (I think 5) monster-themed instro
records in the 60s with alot of sound effects thrown in. I'm not
even sure if he or the band was real - it may have been a bunch of
studio musicians that the record label slapped a name on so they
could release the stuff. There are also rumors that the tracks were
once the backing tracks to a Beatle knock-off project, but then the
vocals were dropped and the silly sound efx thrown in. I'm not sure
what the truth is. Our involvement with the song came from a guy
that was going to put out a Frankie Stein tribute album & asked us to
participate - we picked that song to record, but then the project
fell apart, so we decided to stick that song on our 7" and eventually
as the hidden track on the CD. Frankie recorded a slightly
different version of the same song & called it "My Ghoulish Heart,"
which was to be covered by The Dynotones. They still play the song
using the title "Von Zipper's Revenge." A studio version can be
found on their 6 song CD-Ep on Double Crown Records, and a live
rendition on The Celebration of Life complilation on GoBoy Records.
As far as the white board in the picture, I don't think the "?" song
refers to "Bodies." For one thing, since it was a cover song, we
already knew the name & aside from that,I think we learned it in a
few minutes & probably wouldn't deem it white-board worthy. Judging
by the arrangement & lack of title at the time the photo was taken, I
would say its probably a song called "Retribution" which will be on
our next album, or it may be another new song, or it could even be an
idea that we scrapped entirely.

Does anyone know what song track 13 is? It isn't listed on the back
of the CD nor mentioned in the liner notes. It is a great tune. The
whole CD is good. I assume the track in question is the song with a
question mark on the white board full of chords.
