Love is Chemicals' first album, a true DIY affair— self-recorded, self-produced, self-silkscreened, and self-released in a run of 200. Splendid and Indiegeek had some nice things to say about it. It's currently out of print and we have no plans for a reissue.

Nate Grover, How The Children Played At Slaughter
(unreleased CDR)

Nate Grover: everything

A collection of Nate's solo material from 2003-4, recorded and mixed by himself, Dean Tomihira, and Lee Howard. It has a little more of a rough-edged 4-tracky acoustic vibe than Love is Chemicals, with a bit of a Decemberists/Iron & Wine influence. Nate made a couple of copies for friends and family, but never considered giving it a proper release.

1. If I Were A Sailor
2. Angel's Keep
3. Painted Face
4. Mother Was A Virgin
5. Ruthie Wake Up
6. The Sad King
7. Cut You Out
8. The Great Surprise
