Fall Breaks

sorry for the delay. i had been on a creative block for a while. this album is the filtered tracks of a LOT that i wrote. different from the previous ep, unmarked, and the previous deleted ep (because it was nonsense), clouds feel heavy, i didn't put straight influences in my mind while making it. sure, i had influences- i can name a major one for each song- but it wasn't as much a big deal as it had been. and i think that helped me with the creative block. this ep, i think, is one more step further on my path to indie glory. and another love letter to the things i listen to. "occasionally" is the most unmarked-lite song here. it has got all of the fall breaks stuff- shoegazey guitars (is it a stretch? i will assume not), post-punkish rhythm section, catchy melody... "with your eyes" is a funny song- i had already decided it was rubbish and was going to leave it rotting in my hard drive, until i found myself singing it. countless times. it is catchy as hell. i had to leave it in. you people can tell me what you think about it. i MEAN that. send me an e-mail: [email protected] feedback is always good. so are other e-mail subjects. "somehow" was my attempt at a "velocity girl" / "what you do to me" type of song. you gotta love an economic pop song. and "everybody knows i've gotta grow up", as i discuss further in the individual description, is inspired by acoustic radio session bootlegs from the late 90s, from artists such as noel gallagher and richard ashcroft (okay, primarily these two). i hope it was worth the wait. not just your wait, but my wait. i missed fall breaks, man.

I thought "Everybody Goes" was dead, but it turned out to be the only way to start this. It's a lot of noise, a Big Star melody and a solo that worked by accident. Oh yeah, and the intro is lifted off "Taxman." I thought it would be too sudden to just start the song. The rest is just me trying to write the kind of jangle pop I actually want to hear. "Broadly Speaking" is my personal little pastiche of 80s indie pop and post-punk. I should probably have released it under Sarah Records. "Trainwrecks & Tambourines" has a keyboard orchestra because I was listening to too much Zombies, and the vocals are what they are. People say "Song for Brian" sounds like C86 or Gerard Love but I actually just think it’s the first time I got the production right. The lyrics to this one are particularly special--it's an homage to my musical idol, Brian Wilson, and I tried to encapsulate what his songs make me feel in my very own song. As for the EP, it's a bit meaner than the twee stuff, maybe a bit more shoegazey, but I'm still just drinking from the same well as everyone else.
