Clown Circus is the first album ever released as Lemon Demon.
Description
The album features a heavily revamped sound quite different from the material released as Deporitaz, with an emphasis on vocals and more guitar. Neil's singing is still quite immature, as he was only 17 at the time of the album's release.
History
The album was originally released on CD and for download via Mp3.com on April 5th, 2003. It became out of print when Mp3.com shut down in December 2003.
The album was later included in its entirety on the data track of all Hip to the Javabean CDs. In April 2009, Neil offered this album for free download on Lemondemon.com, alongside Live from the Haunted Candle Shop, Hip to the Javabean, and Damn Skippy. It is one of two Lemon Demon albums to not have been remastered by Needlejuice Records.
