BRAEN IS THE ABSOLUTE PROTAGONIST (SINCE THE FIRST CD, WITH A TYPICAL WEEK OF HIS OWN) AND EMBODIES THE HEAD OF AN AVERAGE MAN, A NIHILIST, WHO NEVER WANTS TO WAKE UP, SO MUCH HE LOVES THE WORLD IN WHICH HE LIVES IN FACT LIFE IS FUNDAMENTALLY FOR HIM A DREAM! ROSE (WHO IS OFFICIALLY NAMED HERE ON THE 2ND ALBUM BUT WHOSE TRACKS CAN BE FOUND AS EARLY AS THE 1ST) IS HER COMPANION? NEMESIS? ALTEREGO? IN SHORT, SHE WHO IS PREGNANT NOW WANTS TO BE MARRIED! BRAEN WILL TRY FOR MONTHS TO CONVINCE HER THAT THIS DOESNT MAKE SENSE (MARRIAGE, CHILDREN, RESPONSIBILITIES, BOREDOM AND A VAGUE PARANOID SENSE OF CONSPIRACY ) BUT LOVE AND LIFE ALWAYS TRIUMPH !!!!
