We feel there is momentum and hope it keeps going. We played (punk festival) the Fest (in Gainesville, Fla., last month) and there were people who knew the record, people who were at our set because they heard of us. Hard work pays off: Tully: ('The Grand Spontanean') is definitely our most successful album so far. For some reason he believes it and starts to live his life as if it's going to end in 37 days. He stumbles on the page at the end of the Internet where this apocalypse scenario is mentioned in full gory detail, and he is the only person who has seen this page. By the fourth song, he does, and the therapist lays in front of him all of his issues, but he finds himself avoiding self-betterment by wasting time on the Internet. The album's concept: Tully: It starts with our protagonist, a twenty-something dude, having some interpersonal problems and questioning whether or not he should go see someone like a therapist. I asked (the band) what the sci-fi concept should be, and Erik posted a story to group chat about what would happen if the Earth's core stopped spinning, and we were off to the races.

We had always talked about making something huge and 'Tommy'-esque. Musically, these were some of the best songs we had written, but lyrically I was getting a little bored, and I didn't think I could write another record from that angle. The impetus for 'The Grand Spontanean': Tully: Probably April 2016, we were floating around two or three songs, and they were just basically treading the same thematic ground as songs from (debut album) 'Citrosis,' which were first-person, everyday-life observations.
