about

Tracks 1-5 are from Matthew and David's 2nd attempt at recording at Rustbelt Studios in Royal Oak, Michigan. Engineered by Dan Currie.

Track 6 is a version of Epiphanies and Revelations recorded by Kevin Fein in the Michigan State University Communications Arts building. This is the first recording of the full lineup that formed at MSU in 2006 (Matthew, David, Zach, Ryan "Smalls" Etzcorn, and Eli Eisman on bass). Matthew also on pedal steel guitar.

Tracks 7-9 were recorded by Mike Vasas in the living room of David's apartment in Ann Arbor and in the basement of Matthew's dorm at MSU.

Track 10 was recorded in Clarkston, MI in May 2007 at early Frontier Ruckus documentarian Richard Maisano's home.
