BTW: "It's a concept album, both musically, in that it was intended to avoid the style of music I'd been playing for five-plus years (blues rock), and lyrically, in that it's a song cycle, going from high to low to high again," Tuminello tells P&P. "Hopefully, it sounds fresh. I've been told it sounds like a number of different artists — many of whom are influences."
