The Attraction to All Things Uncertain
(2001)		 2AM Wakeup Call
(2004)

2AM Wakeup Call is the second album from the band Tweaker. Opposed to The Attraction to All Things Uncertain, this album captures emotional, human performances and instrumentation - notably live drums, acoustic guitar, piano and glockenspiels. It's a nighttime record about dreams, nightmares, and insomnia -- things that keep us up at night.

2AM Wakeup Call was subsequently released in 5.1 Surround Sound.

The track It's Still Happening was offered to the ACIDplanet community for remixing as a part of the Tweaker 2 Remix contest.
