In the bands' own words:

Pulley

  • “Torn Apart By Time” – "As life passes by there are always distractions. Keep the commitment to how things started out and have the perseverance to stand with longevity. Make time to sit back and listen to the music."
  • “Write A Note If You Leave” – "Everyone has experienced loss. This song was inspired by losing my mom but speaks to anyone who's had to say goodbye to someone they love. I miss her, and I miss that hand-written, heartfelt communication."

Fire Sale

  • “An Archaic Construct” – "The song questions the manufactured ways in which we are expected to behave."
  • “Call Of The Void” – “It’s about acting on an intrusive thought—whether it’s driving into a light pole or ‘stumbling’ off a cliff in Cudahy.”
