Wow, I love the sonics of this! Really great stuff. I feel like the balance is just right, which can be tough with this kind of stuff. Getting the vocals to sit right, guitars to be kind of present and loud but not harsh, but also not overly smooth or muddy, etc. It all comes together really nicely. Great artwork too btw. A lot of the design I do is very Swiss-based and I love the straight forward typography and beautiful layered artwork. Great package.

Thanks! Casey Deming did the artwork. He's a very talented guy.

We're playing the release show tonight. A lot of these songs were written in the studio so it's interesting putting together live arrangements long after the songs were recorded. That process is kind of backwards from how we've approached recording in the past and I'm happy with the way it worked out.
