With our two contributions, a song about what happens when cartoon rabbits get pushed too far, and a song about a pirate ghost ship, we perfectly showcase the essence of our band: a bunch of punk rock nerds just trying to stave off the ennui of existence through music."

The record was self-recorded, with mixed by Tommy Burns, guitarist of Cardboard Box Colony, who adds, "A DIY ethic has always been a foundational part of both bands. and we take great pride in how we have been able to capture the unique spirit of each band through this collaborative process.
