about

I am only putting these demos up for fun cause I actually don't think they're that great.

These demos were tracked on a 4 track with very limited mic'ing, the main purpose was for people to use them for reference for our upcoming sessions. We passed out the songs we wanted to record to friends so we could pull in as many ideas from the people we knew to come and join us for the session. I think our idea was grander than we were ready to handle but we wanted to give this big idea a go. We probably should've gone for another EP because in the end I think only about an EP's worth of songs came out great while a bunch of others kind of suffered from a lack of focus during mixing. We struggled alot during the Sharks & Monsters mixing sessions. The recordings went super well. It was really the mixing of our grand idea that slowed everything down.

Eric, Helen, Jess M., Chris (first sessions with Jess McKay on drums, our final and forever drummer). Jess was a fan first and a member later, and became a lifer of a friend. Really couldn't ask for a better crew.
