About the album

I'll be updating this page with lyrics and things throughout the recording process, though I probably won't go as in-depth with the stories behind most of the tracks this time around. The main idea behind When Elephants... is that it's the first time I didn't write any fictional songs (or at least songs about fictional people), so they're pretty self-explanatory. As the title might suggest, the record is personal almost to an uncomfortable level for me, but is really something I felt I needed to get off my chest before I start working on the next album, which will be really loud, dancy, catchy rock as opposed to the stripped-down nature of this one. Don't get me wrong, though. I'm very proud of all of these songs, and can't wait to start playing them live, but it'll be fun to write for the full band again. I'm gonna stop trashing this record now. It'll be an auditory orgasm.

If there are lyrics up, it means I've finished the initial recording of the song. I've been a little hesitant about revealing too much, but hell, it'll all be out there soon enough.
