The Bird Is the Most Popular Finger

It is a two song 7" released in 1994 on Drag City. It was Shellac's first non-Touch and Go release.

The first song "The Admiral" is an instrumental version of a song that appeared on Shellac's At Action Park album later that year. "XVI" is an alternate version of the song "Pull the Cup", also on At Action Park. Both songs were recorded in Todd Trainer's loft apartment, as documented by a photographic print included with the single. The liner notes detail every musical instrument and every piece of recording equipment used on the single.
