Ah
Alcoholic (Original)
- Out-take from Sink, released on the Danny
Boy plus three radio single.
- An alternate version appears on Burning Sosobra.
All the Stories But One - When played in concert this song has a hard-extendend ending. Lasts for approximately 45 seconds, but varies.
American Theatric - Appeared on the Angels in the Flesh
and Devils in the Bone album. It appeared
after the b-side by about two years.
American Theatric B-side - Appeared first on the Subject to
Change Compilation. This version of
the song was recorded entirely
different from it's Angels in the Flesh and Devils in the Bone
counterpart.
American Woman- A cover of The Guess Who's hit song. Played in Floater's earlier years of 1994.
Angels in the Flesh and Devils in the Bone - Floater's third
album released May 5th 1998. Includes
17 new tracks. Produced by Robert
Wynia and Floater. Mixed and Mastered by
Drew Canulette.
Angels in the Flesh and Devils in the Bone radio edit
- The radio edit cd released to radios stations.
Mexican Bus, American Theatric, Settling, and Medicine Woman are the four tracks included.
Ascent I, The
Beast, The- Usually attached to the ending of The Feast in
concert.
Becoming
Beginning, The- The first track on Sink. Most Floater fans, hope they never see the track, "The End."
Beginning, The (Angels)- Endless I was first named The Beginning in hopes that the album would feel more conceptual if the last track were titled, "The End." But the first track on Sink already had the name "The Beginning."
Big Top, The
Bottle- Bottle was played by Pete Cornett and sung by him.
...But Rain Never Came- Sometimes in concert this song
is changed into a drum beat
performed by Pete in concert and
is followed by Cinema.
Caroline-A very very old song before the days of the
Stiff and Restless Demo Tape. Has never been recorded by the band.
Centerfold - This rarity is on the Sink Demo Tape, and
gives an incite to Floater's early song-making
capabilities and styles. A treat for hard-core
fans.
Cinema- From the album
Glyph. "This song's about acid", was Rob's
definition.
Clean Plastic Baby- Clean Plastic Baby when played in
concert usually has a jam session before
the intro. During this jam session Dave
uses a "wa-wa" peddle. A sleeper-hit, and a crowd favorite.
Crawl Into You
Danny Boy plus three- A radio single cd. Alcoholic which was previously unreleased appeared on this single. Only 1000 were made, 600 went to
radio stations abroad, another
300 went to fans through mail
order, and the final 100 were sold
at their shows and select record
stores in the Northwest. Limited
Edition.
Dead
Dead End- A.K.A. Nothing. Dead End was the attachment to
Oof.
Decleration II.
Downbringing - This song was scrapped due to it's similarity to Snowblind. Reportedly was very kick ass.
The End - Later renamed Endless II for the Angels in the
Flesh and Devils in the Bone album.
Endless I - In concert Endless I has another chorus, and then
goes back to the verse. Adds much to the song.
Played acoustically.
Endless II- In concert Endless II is played electrically by
Dave, and towards the very end, a small hard
riff has been included to make the song end with
more of a punch. On the album Endless II is mispelled "Endless Ii," which on the album appears as "Endless Li."
Face of Order, The
Feast, The - Very commonly this song is played with The Beast in
concert, and together they are practically
considered one song.
Glyph- Floater's second album. To date this album is the
crowd's favorite for it's huge hits such as Cinema,
Clean Plastic Baby, Persecutor, and The Sad Ballad
of Danny Boy. Produced by Floater, mixed by Drew
Canulette, and mastered by Kevin Nettleingham.
Godgun
Godgun Post-Edit- Appeared on the Post-Grunge Compilation from
Elemental Records. The Post-Edit included
Summoning (1) as the intro, and Ah as the
ending, extending the song to a full length
of 6 minutes and 4 seconds.
Golden Head - Usually precedes Settling in concert.
Gyuto- Pronounced "Gee-oh-toe". Gyuto is an older song that plays out like Ah, but has more of a Peter the Destroyer funk to it. Has never been recorded by the band.
Intermezzo
Invisible- A new song from Floater. May not be performed for some time.
Invitation, The
Isolation
Isolation II - Faster tempo version of Isolation. Most
commonly played before Glyph was released.
Jam- Several jams exist to this date and most can be heard
before Floater kicks into The Sad Ballad of Danny Boy,
or Clean Plastic Baby. It involves an instrumental collage
of distortion, rapid drum beats, and a persistant
collaboration between the bass and guitar. No vocals,
except for maybe a few grunts.
Kill the Girl - Rob told the crowd once that "This song is
for anyone who's a pathetic liar like me."
Killed the Girl- Appeared on the Stiff and Restless Demo
Tape. Later renamed Kill the Girl for
their first album "Sink".
Knowing Dirge, The
Last Time, The
Manic
Medicine Woman
Mexican Bus
Midnight Ride
Minister
Mosquito - This song deals with one of Rob's friends who
came close to death from an overdose of heroin.
Once, a while back Rob mentioned "This song is
for a friend." Sometimes Jeff Chase, Floater's road manager, comes out on stage towards the end finale and blows forth fire towards the crowd.
Nothing- Was known as Dead End. This song used to be the attachment to Oof (Our
Hero's Resolve minus Zorba). Now it's commonly played
by itself.
Oof - Oof was the combination of the first part from
Our Hero's Resolve plus Nothing. Later it was decided for
the upcoming album to divide these two into entirely
seperate songs.
Our Hero's Resolve - Our Hero's Resolve was considered Oof at
one time by the fans, but later Nothing
(Dead-End) was removed and Zorba was later
attached for the album.
Out of Sheer Lonliness
Persecutor - When played in concert nowadays, this song
has an extended ending which adds another minute
to the cinematic experience. This song also has
a new beginning which is much like the original
intro, except a slower tempo, and much softer.
Pet
Peter the Destroyer - Towards the end of this song, when played
in concert, an extension is included to
make this song even more intricate. The song is divided into
four sections on the album including:
The Ascent, Decleration, Peter the
Destroyer, and Smoke and Madness.
Peter the Destroyer III.
Possum's Funeral, The - To date Floater's only song that
requires a keyboard.
Sad Ballad of Danny Boy, The - Floater's anthem song, competes
with Cinema and Peter the Destroyer for the most requested
song by the crowd. Rob
said, "This song is for anyone
in the crowd who has kids." A Jam version of Danny Boy exists where Floater speeds the pace up a good couple notches. This one is called the "Adrenaline" version.
Settling - Settling has a two-minute extension in concert. Sometimes the Seventeen/Snowblind combo is switched to Seventeen/Settling.
Seventeen - Commonly followed by Snowblind in concert. Written as "17" on the set list.
Silt- A.K.A. Midnight Ride, when Glyph's second release hit
the stores, Silt was renamed Midnight Ride.
Sink- Floater's first album debut. Released through Elemental
Records, included a wide variety of songs. The first
half of the album was produced by Drew Canulette and
Floater. The second half was produced by Floater and
Blue Tool. Mastered by Jason Carter.
Sink Demo Tape - Floater's second demo tape release, probably
only 50 of these were ever made. Centerfold
appeared on this tape.
Sinking into the Design - A.K.A. Settling, a year after
Glyph's release new songs were being
made, and this was Settling's first
incarnation.
Smoke and Madness IV.
Snowblind- Commonly played after Seventeen in concert, appeared
on Floater's first album "Sink".
Stiff and Restless- Floater's first Demo Tape. Most likely
100 of these were made. Only 4 songs appeared on this demo.
SummoningLater renamed Summoning (1) for Sink's second release.
Summoning (1)
Tell the Captain
They
Thin Skin- Thin Skin was played using a Steinberger by Rob.
To perform this song, a screwdriver or a slide was
used. This bass guitar is currently out of operation, and thus it remains to be seen if Thin Skin will ever be played again.
Waiting for the Sun - A cover of The Door's song. It's been played a few times live, the last time this one has been played was back in 1996 at the Grand Theater in Salem, Oregon (to my knowledge).
Was a Time...
Watched Over By Crows- A song made back in 1997. Not sure if it will ever be played live.
Watching Song, The - When this song does get played, it is done acoustically.
Weary
Zorba - At the ending of Our Hero's Resolve the acoustic part is known as Zorba in concert.
