“Heavy eyes and hopeful hearts.” Yeah, that about sums it up! Exhausted late-night commutes home probably makes the cut, too… See, for the last year or so we have been shutting ourselves inside our windowless, brick-walled rehearsal studio, with nightmarish temperature control, for hundreds of, if not literal,thousands of hours. Well, the end is nigh good friends, and with it approaches our first full length studio album, “The House We Grew Up In.” Creation of this record began immediately following the completion of the “Awake” split EP we released over a year ago with our friends, Blank Page Empire. Actually, I think we started writing before that was even finished, but that’s beside the point. As is our mantra, we took a very different approach during the writing process. After a few directional conversations, and B-squad attempts, the creative consensus eventually found its focus on organic and tangible themes, human-level and purposefully relatable lyrics. Less screaming. More “yelling notes.” Melody over thrash. Heavy on the heart, and less on the gain… not to say we don’t still love slamming shit real hard.
