Bylaws and Conditions

Automusilogical articles numbered 1 through 11 were gathered and recorded by Class II Member DK on August 12, 13, and 14, 2007. The Articles were thereafter mixed and mastered by Class II Member TG.

The Preservation Society Headquarters, which lies within the city limits of Springfield Missouri, was used as the primary gathering grounds for the aforementioned documents. Despite midday temperatures ranging from 100-102 degrees Fahrenheit and the desire for open exterior portals, Springfield Missouri city ordinance 6-1503, which states that a personal residence emitting sound greater than sixty (60) dBA can be ticketed and fined, was followed unconditionally.

Certainty the Enemy

In 2021, the album Certainty the Enemy was released. Recorded in his garage with two microphones and the time provided by the pandemic, Heugel performed all instruments on the record, save some wonderful vocals by Lauren Slater and additional instrumentation on the title track by Todd Gummerman. 

One reviewer (who is definitely not Heugel’s grandmother) writes, “Heugel’s inability to settle on a style of music makes his songs feel like half-wrapped parcels jettisoned from the trunk of a Buick crossing the American West. They’re well-shaken, scuffed, and whatever was inside is surely broken.”

No issue is taken with this assessment.
