专辑简介

At just eighteen years old, Spard members Ned Singh and Ryan Kennedy have self-recorded and produced their debut album while continuing their Undergraduate studies. With humble beginnings, the two rockers from Oakland, New Jersey have entered the scene with more than just a strong will to be heard, but rather a desire to share a story with their first concept album for the Spard project. This Rock Opera thrusts the listener back into a world of Knights and Sorcery. Following the quest of the facially maimed Drummer Daiferieu, The Loudest Whisper narrates a fantasy where a man with no mouth searches for the one thing he can never have; a kiss. Ignoring the warnings of his brother Spard, Captain of the king’s elite squadron of knights, Drummer leaves his post as the drummer boy for the battalion in search of a way to restore his face so that he may obtain lips and profess his love to the angelic Princess Jubilee Anne. This album is a collaborative effort blending together several different styles and genres to tell this dynamic, emotional story. Spard would like to thank their families, friends, and all those featured on this album. Special thanks to Brookes Griffith (Strings), Dave Dorado, Sam "Ribs" Bandes (Drums), Carrie Slome (Extra Vocals), and Chris Graham (Mastering).
