"Stay Back," the disc's first single, is currently being serviced to radio stations across the country, and a video will be shot in Los Angeles within the next few weeks with first-time music video director and well-known actress Juliette Landau ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "Ed Wood"). It will be ready for TV and online consumption early next month.
"When I was writing 'Stay Back,'" explains singer/guitarist Jason C. Miller, "I thought about all the times people push each other away in relationships, maybe from clashing ideals or just being afraid of something good. I assumed the role of the person who knows he's a spoiler, but has enough morality left to warn the other person."
He continues about the album's overall writing process, "We really reconnected with the influences that inspired us to write music, like The Cure, Black Sabbath, Bauhaus, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, David Bowie, Depeche Mode and even Rush. It's something I always try to do, but don't always succeed. It's not the radio single that makes you a true fan of a band, it's those interesting tracks that you discover late at night sitting in your room. And I try to ignore modern music trends at all costs. Why become a clone of what's popular now only to be ignored tomorrow? Stick to your own sound and your audience will find you, and they will stay with you for the rest of your life."
