Musical Philosophy | Downloads | Discography | Lyrics

Music.

We want to play music that people want to listen to. But, people have lots of different stuff they like. Some people listen to music because it's catchy, or because they can associate with the lyrics. Some people like music because of the way different parts fit together, or because of technical complexity.

We understand that you can't please all of the people all the time, but we still try to be conscientious of all our listeners. So we try to have music that is fun or entertaining to play, while still being accessible to someone who isn't a music major. We try to have lyrics that are meaningful and understandable, but not melodramatic, and deal with things we actually think about. Girls are a part of our lives, but not the only thing we think about. Sometimes we consider the drawbacks of capitalism, or how sometimes it can be a nice day even when it's cold outside. So, we try to have a balance of accessibility and inovation, catchiness and experimentation, complexity and simplicity.

Maybe the pop-punk kids will understand there's more to life than 4/4 and boo-hoo, and maybe the math-rock kids will remember why they started liking music in the first place. Maybe.
