the cover is growing on me. i'm waiting for them to explain it more. but so far im so stoked. the new songs sound great so far from what i've heard.

 

straight from the horse's (ie Hayley's) mouth!

 

i found the butterfly in my moms driveway a while ago... dead and completely in tact. after writing the lyrics for "brick..." with the one line that says "the angles were all wrong, now she's ripping wings off of butterflies"... the image we chose for this song was the butterfly i'd found. only we cut its wings off and pinned the butterfly with all its separate pieces in order on the fence in my backyard.

 

in hindsight, to me, it represents the fact that broken pieces... individual pieces can still make one big picture. doesn't matter if they all have their own purpose as long as they stand together.

pretty cool :mrgreen:

 

although the thought of cuttin up dead butterflies and then driving little metal pins through the poor bug is kind of unsettling in a weird, zen-Buddhist way?

Maybe an album titled "Driving nails through butterflies" or "Impaled butterfly corpse" would've attracted a more metallish crowd? 8-)

 

Anyway, I really like the direction they are taking. With everything! I can only hope that the album holds up to that.
