When i 1st startedTURBOVULVA i decided that it was finally time for me to do my own thing. I had had it with the band experience....didn't want to practice....didn't want to schedule anything around anyone else. I just wanted to work on music all day every day. I went looking for a studio to work at & ran across an ad for STUDIO 11 in the Illinois Entertainer. Called. Talked to Dan. Went to meet Dan. Later met Alex who I would go on to form STRAP-ON SWEETIE with in 2005. Alex would go on to record FANCI PANTIE PARLOR as well as almost every other TURBOVULVA track for the next few years

FANCI PANTIE PARLOR [i believe] was the 1st release to come out of the new
STUDIO 11 now located on Lake Street in Chicago.
Fester With Vulvas pretty much kicked it off. If i remember correctly i believe Mink Mold was recorded that day as well some time in late 2000.
At the time if you remember we were inundated with the Creeds & the Limp Bisquicks of the world & i wanted to get as far away from that trogolodyte fodder as i could possibly muster. Even though i had always existed in "real" rock bands i wanted to put together an opus that would span the 9 tracks it ended up being.....
break all my self-imposed rules....
& do something in a completely different mindset.
FANCI PANTIE PARLOR was the end result the 1st official TURBOVULVA release
[Just to clarify a few questions that have come up about the title over the past few years]
FANCI was spelled that way because that's the way a cunt named Brandi would have [mis]spelled her name in your high-school yearbook. PANTIE spelled that way came from an old Vogue ad i had purchased years before. PARLOR is a doctrine NOT a parlour.
ALSO: the entire disc is one long sequence with only one break towards the end of Fester With Vulvas which is why the tracks begin & end the way they do when you purchase them as seperate tracks at iTunes or any of the other digital distributors. it was ALWAYS intended to be one long song from start to finish & that's the way it should be listened to...for instance if you listen to the end of I'm Not Really A Waitress that's the beginning of Anti-Drug Record which leads to Hellevator Game Bot Play Dots & so on.
