Matt wrote most of these songs as a teen in Arcata, CA before moving to Olympia. We became good DIY buddies, and ended up playing in a number of bands together (including this one lol). Matt released a second EP, "You're Dead", and toured a bunch before changing over to the STUDENT CELLO moniker, under which they continue to record and perform.

You know, this album, and particularly "Perfect World" give this sort of "your life is what you make it" kind of theme to it---all while being served with a very hip and catchy melody...personally I'm transitioning from #3 to #2 in terms of this song, and it only took 23 years! Aaron Jay Turkheimer

An album that snuck up on me and slapped me with goosebumps. It’s a perfect listen back to front.
Each of the band members contributions are inextricably linked to the final result. There’s no need to separate, weigh and appraise each individually.
These aren’t the sounds of critics or cynics.
These are the sounds of love letters, of incantations, of indictments of nightmare makers and of screaming into the void. How does one know a classic? By observing the levitating arm hairs. Classic. 🖤 blichvar
