专辑简介

This song "As the City Quietly Sleeps..." is our masterpiece track off of the debut full length "Until Sunrise." We wrote this track in only two days. The music flowed out of us so easily. The intro riff was written many months before the rest of the song. "Monolith" was mostly a jam that was cut down after many practices. It is our heaviest and most technical part of the album, and also one of the most fun to play live. Then we wrote "After this Life" (named by one of our friends and investors Rob Sellers) which is a beautiful part that starts will a gloomy bass line. This part is basically a very organized jam that builds into climax. Later we hired a girl named Sayre Posey to record a couple of melodic violin tracks to fill the sound. Finally, David created a riff for "Storm Over the Sea" which is the ambient bridge between the two contrasting parts. Joe Dorsey later laid down some melodic bowed guitar, and sampled a thunderstorm into the section. Recording this song was very interesting. We had many fights as a band over those three days. Also, we recorded mostly in the dark, with maybe one or two dim colored lights for effect. Also, since I (Joe Dorsey) am using Protools M-Powered, and since the song is so long, I ran out of tracks to record with, and had to start consolidating several tracks into one.This made mixing and mastering very difficult. We weren't happy with the final product on the album, so this is why we are re-releasing the song as a single, so people can hear what kind of real potential this song has. THANKS FOR LISTENING TO UNTIL SUNRISE!
