Written and recorded between April 12 and April 28, 2004. Adam arrived at 4 Dog Studios with a broken heart and in a very dark mood. All that was on his mind was the breakup he had just gone through. He insisted on talking about it over and over but after a day of listening I was ready to strangle him, so I had to take the helm and get the ship rolling. 'Wait' was the first song we wrote and getting him to do anything was like pulling teeth. He hated the song because it was too poppy, so of course I made him sing. 'Last summer', 'Sun Don't Shine', 'All is Over' and 'Once More' all reflect the dark mood he was in and channeled over to me. 'Bloody Hair' was Adam telling a story because he was tired of the vague lyrics that I enjoy. 'Dehesa Sunset' and 'The Facts' were my first attempts at instrumentals. Most of the instrumentals are Adam's, including 'Retrospect'. 'Staircase' is the most interesting to me. It is all backwards music. After recording the song normally, Adam decided we were ripping off an Austin band (I have never heard of them) so he wanted to scrap the song. I fought him tooth and nail and convinced him to do it backwards and add new lyrics. I did the narrative and he sang it in Polish. I think it turned out all right. Enjoy.(Russ) Production note: Russ's brother, Brian, sings on 'Once More'. Thank you Brian! (Adam) P.S. Adam caught the omission of my brother Brian. Brian wrote the lyrics and sang them after drinking 20 beers. He came over during the recording session to visit Adam. He and I were sitting out front when Brian arrived. He stated that every time he comes to watch us record we are just sitting around. So we jumped up and went inside. I plugged in and started playing a riff. I was happy with the tone so Adam started to record me but Brian kept yelling in my earphones. 'That wasn't right, you should do a doo do da da doo.' He started writing lyrics and so we let him have a go at singing it. We laughed our asses off while he did it. I wrote my own lyrics for the song but hearing Brian's words, Adam and I liked it enough to leave it. I still smile when I hear it. My wife shuts the door when she hears it. You just got to rock and roll. (Russ)
