about

Tj's weird dream pop song. It was our most progressive song and a real departure for us musically. It wasn't full of doom and gloom, had some major notes in it instead of all minor notes and a black cloud hanging over our heads. I remember it making me uncomfortable because it was almost too happy, but we sapped it up a bit more at the end of the song with our trademark misery. We jammed on this one for a very long time, recorded it and then kinda never played it again.
Diamond Sea was also a band that was trying to form as a sort of tribute to Shaun, but they couldn't get things off the ground. A member of that band (Ben) would later pass away from a very sad ending, so it's kinda nice to have this memoralized for him as well as Shaun Luu.
