Antelope is my first real attempt at working alone. The material here had no outside imput, and no other contributions other than mine, no professional recording techniques, nothing.... It was me a variety of instruments, toys and homemade objects and an 8-track recorder. The album is extremely lo-fi and should probably be listened to over headphones rather then speakers.
This album is influenced more by folk, indie, and pop-rock artists then my former album was. The aggressive distortion soaked guitar has been replaced with a texture oriented acoustic guitar, and clean instruments drenched in reverb. It's still rather bass heavy (in fact moreso than Biscuit is) and makes use of keyboards and violin on a couple songs. Since I didn't have to worry about anyone elses opinions or imput I was able to experiment more and comprimise less. This album is about 3/4 planned and 1/4 improvised.
The lyrics are alot more introverted then anything I've written before, songs on this album have to do with inanimate objects, communism, astronauts, childhood, and crossdressers.

Please stay courteous and be sincere (for good and bad!). It can be an interesting read for others, but only if it is constructive and doesn't disparage the artist.
Please write about the music itself and don't be too hard on the sound quality of some demos.
