.:INSTANT GRATIFICATION:. by Curious Quail

This was a labor of love.

Production on this record started the day the GLOW Ep was released in 2009. To finally see it released is a huge relief for me, as it was plagued with re-tracking, song cuts and logistical nightmares.

This album tells a story. You can enjoy the songs individually but we recommend listening to the record as a whole from start to finish to get the full effect. (Plus, there are a few hidden surprises if you buy the whole thing) It will mean something different to each of you, and we welcome your interpretations. Send your thoughts to hi@curiousquail.com

If you're listening to this, thank you. If you purchase this, THANK YOU. We did it ourselves. There is no label. There is no support mechanism other than our loved ones, friends and family.
