As a gift to some of our Kickstarters last year, we decided to compile a set of ten COTQ ‘rarities’ — practice recordings, demos, remixes, instrumentals, and one-offs from our first eighteen months as a band that had been collecting on our hard drives. To celebrate 2011, we’ve made it free for everyone.

These ten recordings, ranging from back in early summer of 2009 at the very first COTQ practices (when we had live drums!) up until just a few weeks ago, represent the past, present, and possible future of the Clones of the Queen. We hope you enjoy it.
