about

This is an EP of home demos, recorded between November and December of 2022. Most of these songs are much older than that, however. Summer's End actually dates back to, like, 2018.

Expect more demos EPs soon, and for more stuff to be done to these songs in the near future.

The actual EP also includes a cover of R.E.M's Hope, but I can't put that on bandcamp. If you know me, DM me for a download. Antecedents samples two Hudson Valley radio stations (I believe the outro sample comes from WFNP 88.7FM, which during the daytime plays classical music but in the evening hosts SUNY New Paltz's student-run radio station). Truth or Consequences samples the films Bottle Rocket and The Friends of Eddie Coyle. The cover is a still from the film Blood Simple. The title is taken from the lyrics of Archers of Loaf's Web in Front.

I hope this brings you joy.
