I Am the Fun Blame Monster! (2003) Under an Hour (2005)

I Am the Fun Blame Monster! was self-released on May 20, 2003 by the Portland, Oregon, U.S., based band Menomena, and was made available exclusively through online retailer CD Baby. The CD was re-released by FILMguerrero in 2004, and then again by Barsuk/FILMguerrero in 2007. A white vinyl LP was released by FILMguerrero in 2005 that featured an origami design by band member Brent Knopf and hand screen printing/assembly by band member Danny Seim. The original run was limited to 500 copies, which sold out. FILMguerrero re-released the LP in 2007 on 180 gram vinyl, but without the intricate packaging.

The title is an anagram for "The First Menomena Album."
