Mouth Silence
(revised August 8th, 2014)
Just felt like I needed to catalog all of the eggs I've found/heard about with Neil Cicierga's awesome remix album, "Mouth Silence".
1. The album cover shows Neil giving the "silence" gesture
His fingers are in the shape of an "L"
2. The Comments field of the MP3 files' ID3 information spells out a message when the tracks are arranged in a certain order.
2a. Sort the tracks in alphabetical order by song name
2b. Comments spell out "SO MUCH 2 DO SO MUCH 2 SEE" (spaces added for clarity)
3. Track 9, "Transmission" contains a series of numbers, which when decoded also refer to something Smash Mouth related.
3a. When arranged in pairs, rather than the groups they're in, you get: (they're slightly grouped in pairs in the recording)
83 77 65 83 72 - 77 79 85 84 72
If you treat these as decimal values of ASCII text, you can decode this to:
SMASH - MOUTH
4. Track 19, "Piss" contains morse code for "Some body once told me" https://twitter.com/Wrathematician/status/492127519898730497
5. There are hidden audible messages in certain key points in the mix, which are disguised as ominous rumbling noises.
Speed up the recoding by 1600x (approximate) to hear these, quietly in the mix.
In the tracks:
5a. 1. "Goodbye" "Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me, I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed" (into 2.)
5b. 9. "Transmission" (whistling) (into 10.)
5c. 10 (end) "Love Psych" (into 11) (Hey now, you're an all-star)
5d. 16 (end) "Numbers" (into 17) (All that gitters is gold)
5e. 18 (end) "..All use a little change" (into 19)
5f. 19 (end) "..the mold"
