"Talk Talk," Music Machine Lenght: 1 min 57
The bitter gem builds progressive layers of instrumentation and tension like a mini symphony. "can't seem to talk about the things that bother me..." but the sneering Bonniwell does, and he does it in under 2 minutes!

"Trogdor," Strong Bad Lenght:1:40
Just a tune I picked up from GH2. The guitar work is something, but it's funny that they would put a so-quick-you-blink-and-it's-over song in with the other regular tracks. Other than that, I know NOTHING about the band.
