Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Factory Showroom is the sixth studio album by They Might Be Giants, and the last one to be released on major label Elektra Records, released in 1996. The album was written during a series of shows at the Mercury Lounge in New York City and some short tours of the US east coast and midwest. It was their second album to feature a full band, with Brian Doherty on drums, Graham Maby on bass, and Eric Schermerhorn on lead guitar.During this time, the band made a series of wax cylinder recordings at the Edison Laboratories in West Orange, NJ, one of which made it onto the album as "I Can Hear You".Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })TracklistS-E-X-X-Y (3:51)Till My Head Falls Off (2:53)How Can I Sing Like a Girl?

Anachronism Stew: While it was recorded on a wax cylinder and has a decidedly retro musical style as well, the lyrics of "I Can Hear You" reference modern devices like car alarms, drive-in restaurant intercoms, airplanes (and in-flight phone calls) and apartment buzzers. | |

Artistic License – History | |
| Factory Showroom (Music) / int_56515a39 | comment |
Artistic License – History: "James K. Polk" is fairly accurate, but has a couple of minor errors. Martin Van Buren wasn't really an abolitionist, since he favored limiting expansion of slavery rather than abolishing it, and the English didn't really "sell" the Oregon Territory; they gave the southern half of it to the US as part of the terms of a treaty. | |
