Description

The solo debut from Omar Rodríguez-López, recorded in 2001 after the breakup of At the Drive-In and released in 2004, this was to be the first of a two-part soundtrack set to go along to a film directed by Rodriguez-Lopez. The release of Volume Two, which was originally planned for Spring of 2005, and the film itself, were both delayed indefinitely due to legal problems, conflicts over ownership of certain footage and Rodríguez-López's reluctance to revisit the project, which featured his late friend Jeremy Michael Ward who tragically died of a heroin overdose before the project could be finished. It has been rumored by fans that "Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fungus" is indeed AMD II, especially considering the insert containing a photo of Jeremy, included with that LP.

"Deus Ex Machina" is a version of a song "Reina de Mi Vida", written by Omar's father Angel Marcelo Rodriguez (also known as Marcelo Rod-Che) for the famous Puerto Rican salsa orchestra El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico; here, it is performed by Angel Marcelo himself.

  1. "Around Knuckle White Tile" – 7:16
  2. "Dyna Sark Arches" – 4:38
  3. "Here the Tame Go By" – 5:11
  4. "Deus Ex Machina" – 5:03
