We were young when we made most of these songs, hell, even the newest track (Want More) was the first song we ever wrote. This is mainly a reflective look back at the past and how simple things were, before work, before rent, before heart-ache, before mistakes. And adult mistakes at that. We seem to forget, you can mess up as a kid and it doesn’t really mean anything. But you mess up now and its another story. We miss that, but you cant always look back on things, they kind of have to die to be reborn in another form.
I guess thats what this EP is about, making our teenage selves proud before we finally put them to bed.
