Laura Veirs: "We didn’t want to make a dark children’s record, but we didn’t want to avoid darkness altogether."

Bathetic Records: "The internet is good for finding artists, but it's also full of whackos and phonies with half-baked ideas. We don't exactly hype that shit."

Steve Hauschildt: "Failed pop is surprisingly fertile and rich with possibility."

Imbogodom: "Every time we record it seems like it's 'the last time,' so it's always special."
