HI! This is a record about “going through it”, so to speak, and ultimately coming out the other side, over & over again. Please remember to be nice to yourself and to others, and that you are (truly) never alone, no matter how alone you may feel right now!!! Okay?! MENTAL HEALTH IS #1!

The cover of this album is a photo of the “Monsanto House of the Future”, a crazy plastic home that stood in disneyland from 1957-1967. We know next to nothing about the photo except that it was taken in 1957 and was included in press materials about the house. If you know any more about the photo, tell us!

Track #8 was titled by Bryan Stoll, Alex “StarF” Alverson, and Terry Pallanti. We had a contest and thought their entries fit the song the best!!! Thanks!! Bryan & Alex both suggested the first part (parallel thinking, woah!) & Terry came up w/ the parentheses.
