A recent excursion to my old house showed that there were actually a few of the original hand-made Tidal Wave CDs available. These include an 8-page booklet, hand-cut and glued by my own two hands, along with a double-sided tray insert, hand-cut, folded and glued, all in a standard CD jewel case.
The CDs themselves are simple CD-Rs with the tracks burned onto them, hand-labelled with a black Sharpie.
Each edition was also hand-numbered on the back of the jewel case insert and also on the discs themselves. Only 25 of these were ever made.
These will never have a hand-made edition like this ever again.

Forever Is A Long Time Coming is a song about not getting laid. Well, in the simplest of terms. It's a song about not getting what you want out of a relationship, and leaving to find something that does. Because I'm not going to wait for you to give me what I need--I'll find someone, or something, who can.
The chorus for this song took forever until I was happy with it, and I must've rerecorded the guitars about thirty times. And the solo is still one of my favourite lead parts and lead guitar tones ever, I really hit it with that one.
lyrics
Forever Is A Long Time Coming
And you're not worth the wait
I've been in this four years running
And now it's gonna change
Think I'm going out tonight
To find me something new
I'm not gonna waste my life
Waiting up for you
I won't wait, no
Won't wait forever
I won't wait
Won't wait forever
I won't wait
Won't wait forever, no
I won't wait
Forever Is A Long Time Coming
Now, life and death are only words
They don't mean a thing
But we all know that words can hurt
Words can burn and sting
You don't have to justify
The meaning of your ways
'Cuz I'm not gonna waste my life
Waiting for another day
I won't wait, no
Won't wait forever
I won't wait
Won't wait forever
I won't wait
Won't wait forever, no
I won't wait
Forever Is A Long Time Coming
Ha ha ha ha...
Yeah...
I'm not gonna wait forever, baby...
Forever Is A Long Time Coming
Forever Is A Long Time Coming
Forever Is A Long Time Coming
Forever Is A Long Time Coming
Forever Is A Long Time Coming
Forever Is A Long Time Coming
Forever Is A Long Time Coming
Forever Is A Long Time
Coming

Onslaught Six - Music, lyrics, vocals, guitar, drum + bass + synth programming
I'd write something to entice you but instead I'm just going to tell you it's a band called "You Bred Raptors?" and if that doesn't make you want to listen to it then you can get the fuck out. Onslaught Six
I had an elaborate parody of Patrick Bateman's "Huey Lewis and The News" bit from American Psycho here, but it's too big to fit the recommendation box. So...It's Perturbator. Go get it. Onslaught Six
Female-fronted synthwave, retro electro, whatever you call it. I'm not going to lie: I'm biased because this is a side project of mine. That shouldn't stop you from listening to it. Onslaught Six
Dark electronic music gets warped and clobbered on the latest from Author & Punisher. Brooding, cutting, and claustrophobic. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 18, 2017
