well i made it. i lay away many nights comtemplating this album.
i wanted to give a voice to the kids who were terrorized by their parents.
we all know how we can retreat into our own imaginations and build SHIELDS. and we can weave tall tales. walk around the playground at recess. who knows what the other kids are doing we are CONSTRUCTING.
and this album is an ode to that. i think of each song as a child's fantasy. there are bad things in their lives and these are the worlds they build. til it's light out at the end and their mother tucks them into bed.
but then the EPILOUGE and they're a teen, deep in the nightlife… perhaps a prelude to the next album. or a prelude to SEE YOU OUT THERE or GREAT AMERICAN NOVEL… nightlife albums. maybe the albums go in circles. i will be more clear and answer more grounded questions about this album later. tonight, as i release it, i'm caught in a pink wind. you know you've been there!
hope you all enjoy the STORIES!!
