We did a Violitionist Sessions during the spring and the videos/interview has been posted!  We play Turbo Stasis, We Did Not Need to Open It to Know It Was There, and Water.  The people who run these sessions are wonderful and have hosted many bands much more talented than us, so run through their archive after you watch/read ours! <3

We have been weekend warrioring the crap out of this LP, but we are proud to announce that the music portion is now recorded! Take a gander at this here board for proof.

While you are there, look at our stupid pet names for our tracks, lol. You will also note that there are 13 total tracks, but 11 are on the album and those bonus two are for imports, special versions, etc.

I have a weird process where I don’t write lyrics/vocals until the music is recorded, so it’ll still be a bit but we are trying to keep you all updated. Admittedly, I am bad at that, so I will try to be better, haha.

Pre-orders are now up for A Great Big Pile of Leaves’ follow-up album You’re Always On My Mind!
