The Modern Prometheus is the culmination of 16 years of comedy music making, and serves as the over-the-top, big prog-rock album ending to our final record. It originally began life as an improv around a couple of drum loops, haphazardly attempting to recount the plot of Frankenstein from memory.

While the original version appears on our album from last year, this special orchestra accompanied version was written in celebration of The Thumbnuts joining The FuMP.
