Recently got into this band after listening to Flying Microtonal Banana and found out they have some lost media. Thought y'all might be interested.
So, on the Flightless Records (KG&tLW's record label) Instagram page, there's a post for the vinyl reissue of Oddments which shows a few pictures from around the time the album was being made/released. One of the images shown (this one) shows an alternate tracklist of Oddments featuring 2 previously unknown tracks (Eucalyptus Noserun and Snow) replacing 2 of the other songs on the album (Pipe-Dream and the title track.) It's unlikely that these were just the original names for those tracks since the full length of the alternate Oddments is different than the final one (32:07, 6 minutes shorter.)
Around the time the album was being recorded, a laptop belonging to Stu Mackenzie was stolen that included most of the recordings made for Oddments, forcing them to re-record it. It's possible that during re-recordings they scrapped the 2 songs in favor of the other ones or they didn't re-record those songs outright.
This is all I could find pertaining to the lost songs, but hopefully more will come out later.
