Letting a stranger become the most important person in your room and then learning how to make them feel like a stranger again and not someone who could destroy you. But that’s like the quiet and written side of it. The heart of it is the hangs. Playing these songs for the day 1s at the HQ. Sweating, moshing, drinking, dancing and figuring them all out live. Playing a hundred different versions until they hit just right. Playing a hundred different jams until we got 13 songs that tell the story we wanna tell and move the room how we wanna move it. We all met online about 1 year ago, started the hangs about 6 months ago, and now dropping our first album. This is where it starts. We made it out the group chat.
