"It’s hard to know what to say about this album. It’s heavy for us, but also beautiful and ocean sized (pun intended). There are several layered stories here. The most obvious story is about leaving your home town, which we both did in recent years. Beginning with a need to leave everything and everyone, mourning all that has been lost, and inevitably coming back to what held us up in the first place: community. A deeper layer to this album is that it follows the cycles of life. From the opening line of “open my eye…”, the excitement of being alive, to the increasing expectations, heaviness of responsibility, and ultimately returning to the source (death, rebirth). And yet another layer chronicles the unraveling and dramatic changes in our personal lives. Over six years in the making, this is TWW at our most vivid."
