Here's more than a few words about the album:

"I may be old fashioned, but I made this album with the intent that it would be heard from start to finish. In a world of shuffling mp3's and only listening to 2 or 3 songs from each album, I know that intent is probably futile.

That said the album (which is lyrically clean except for 2 songs) essentially has two sides. The first side, beginning with the NSFW "Fired Up" (a short track that comes out swinging) and ending with "Always & Never" (one of my very first unreleased songs that I've been kicking around since inception) , is mainly upbeat. With the exception of the old school electronic "Dauntless (Must Be Worth It)", most of the tracks are definitely along the lines of what past Love and Zombies singles have sounded like.

The second side kicks off with "Scene 6 Take 9," a horror themed skit that I wrote and composed (using a ton of instruments as well as creaking chairs, floors and scraping knives) to lead into the newly revised version of "Scream Queen" (which was the first song I released in 2009). The tracks that encompass the last half of the album are darker, and more experimental. In fact after the first part of the song "We All Go," the punk-rock feel leaves the album for good in favor of experimental guitars, keyboards, soundscapes, vocoders, and slower tempos. While "Hollow" and "Not What I Wanted" sound worlds apart from earlier album tracks like the leading single "Suffer For The Art" or the reminiscent "F.S.U.", in context they come across as logical leaps of progression."
