The Prof.Fuzz 63
“Cinnamon Sea LP”
A PF63 Release (PF63-05)
2023

“Cinnamon Sea LP,” the sixth full-length album from Howdy Arabia’s First Family of Fuzz™, The Prof.Fuzz 63, was released on 5 October 2023.

The album, recorded and mixed by Clint Niosi at Orange Otter Audio in Fort Worth TX, and mastered by Stephen Finley at Sugar Hill Recording Studio in Houston TX, contains eight new songs that build on the sonic foundation of pounding drums, grinding organ and dirty piano, gritty guitar, phoned-in vocals, and extra scoops of fuzz that you’ve come to love and expect from the PF63.

Side 1 contains remixed and remastered versions of four songs released earlier in 2023 as “Cinnamon Sea EP,” and Side 2 kicks things up another level or two with four new weird tracks.

“Cinnamon Sea LP” is available on 12″ 45 RPM vinyl, CD, and digital download from the PF63 bandcamp store, at PF63 shows, and from a few cool record stores.

Radio Comments:
Side 1 is 100% FCC-friendly.
Side 2 is 75% FCC-friendly. Track 1 “An Amorous History of Paper Airplanes” contains the line “He drew a dick on a paper airplane.” Broadcast over the federally-regulated airways at your own risk.

Cinnamon Sea LP Song Notes:

Side 1
Cinnamon Sea: A song about obsession and loss, and, perhaps, a mermaid.

Jazz Wives: A song about cool women who don’t give a fuck, and their less-than-ideal partners.

Climax Aurora Has a Seaside Disease: A song about a woman with a mysterious condition, and a desire to write a book.

Your Call is Not That Important: A song that says the quiet part out loud.

Side 2
An Amorous History of Paper Airplanes: A song about unrequited love and folded paper flying through the air.

When Lawn Darts Are Outlawed Only Outlaws Will Have Lawn Darts: A song about dangerous toys, now illegal and no longer flying through the air.

Pigment of My Imagination: A song about colorful dreams.

Shy Ann From Laramie: A song about a guy who gets killed by a woman he thought loved him. This is what we imagined a spaghetti western murder ballad by Sonic Youth might have sounded like…

Three shows on the calendar for October, and we’re excited about each and every one of them!

20231008: Arlington Nights Chat & Do. Dr Jeckyll’s. Pantego TX.
We’re the musical guests the October installment of Arlington Nights’ monthly Chat & Do series. Come hang out with the movers and shakers of Arlington’s nightlife community. We’ll try to make it weird for everyone.

20231021: Point A Gallery. OKC OK.

The new The Prof.Fuzz 63 album, “Cinnamon Sea LP” will be released on December 2, 2023!

The second song on Side 2, “When Lawn Darts Are Outlawed Only Outlaws Will Have Lawn Darts” is a little ditty about a toy that was pulled from the market after three children were tragically killed while playing with it. There is no deeper political meaning to the song, trust us on that…

Ever wish you could have some other two-syllable thing pulled from the market?
Pop tarts?
Golf carts?
Karl Ward?

Here’s your chance to express that desire, in song, with the possibility of winning some cool PF63 s
