Here’s one from Anonymous 2’s collection. Since this person promoted shows in the area, there are a ton of demos from Sacramento area bands along with a bunch of others from around the country. I am working on documenting all of the tapes, like you requested in the Patreon. Sorry it is slow going- I had to wait for my wrist to heal!

The Mummydogs were Guy Kyser (Thin White Rope), Johanna Kyser (Thornucopia), Cary Rodda and Paul Takushi (tons of Davis bands). When I first digitized this a few months back, I thought that it might have been one of my remixed board tapes that I did of theirs but after a closer listen I think this is really a 2 song demo. It does not shazam to the only album they released, so I am going with Demo unless someone proves me wrong.

More info thanks to Paul (drummer and probable engineer of this demo!) “This must be a very early demo bc when I hear the drums, it’s not what I ended up playing as time passed. (Sounds really stiff, too.) I want to say that it was recorded at the old practice spot in W Sac, two doors down from the Deftones’ spot. I think I engineered it on my Tascam Porta 2 4-track cassette machine. We used two PZMs to capture the bass and drums, a SM58 on guitar, and a SM57 on keyboards. Mixed that down to two tracks, then overdubbed the vocals. Then, mixed that into two tracks. Then, made copies from that.”
