This shirt is printed on a 100% ring-spun cotton shirt by a local Nashville screenprinting company. It's super comfy. It may cause you to fall asleep standing up. The artwork was designed by Jen Pappas (jenpappasart.tumblr.com) and we are very proud of it. If you've read this far, we hope you know that all of the proceeds from this shirt are going towards printing and distributing our new album.

about
Creature Collector was recorded in Nashville, TN during the summer of 2012. It was recorded in various studios and basements among friends.
lyrics
Everything gold ain’t gonna shine,
but babe you’re burning up tonight.
Your heart’s as cold as the coast.
Your veins are running with the wind
that carry your thoughts out west.
And I can’t smile in a quiet south
I can’t liven up sorrowful Midwest
And so, I say enough is enough
I put up my guard
and sent in my regards.
It seems the lightest always falls,
so we tread with heavy hearts
on borrowed comforts after all.
And I can’t smile in a quiet South
I can’t liven up sorrowful Midwest
So, I say enough is enough
A storm pushed you to the edge:
a sea of chemicals in your head,
but I still know where you are.
Pushing warm blood out your heart,
collecting saints and thanking God
And I can’t smile

Friends from Nashville! One of the members, Josh Stuebe, did the majority of the tracking for Creature Collector. Think early 00s late 90s indie or awesome, both work. And the Giraffe
Summertime Kids is the side project of Nick Roberts, from And the Giraffe. With a more mellow feel, the guitar melodies of Summertime Kids will lull you to sleep. And the Giraffe

Can't recall how I found this release but I'm glad I did. Take whatever mood you're in and by the time you finish listening to this if you aren't left in a reflective, calm and ultimately grateful state about life - seek medical help. Beautiful. DJ Osric
