Overview

Following the 2002 EP Amped, Lawnball marked the first TDA studio album to feature a reduced six-piece line-up following the departures of original members Linda "Big Lou" Seekins, Patty Brady, Art Peterson and Clyde Forsman. With Paul Rogers now the sole singer-songwriter of the band, Lawnball had a noticeably different musical style than TDA's previous albums, placing a primary emphasis on rock and pop songs with folk, country and jazz influences, while the prominence of the accordions were slightly downplayed and accompaniment from acoustic guitars and pianos added for a fuller studio sound.

The title of the album refers to what's also known as a yard globe, a reflective lawn ornament.

gollark: Ignore his obvious scam! Please send your money to me either as cash to my carrier pigeon address, or send your email password to my email account.
gollark: So just don't run random binaries or whatever, which you should avoid anyway.
gollark: Never mind, I checked and it does exist, but apparently it's just an addition to an existing trojan which makes it meddle in discord.
gollark: I don't really believe it.
