02 - Petriform - What It Wouldn't Take

03 - Koda And The Braveheart - A-O Alley Oop Oop
About: We wrote this track for our self-titled children's album. Frankly, I feel like there is far too much uninspired children's music out there that makes you want to stick a pencil in your ear. So we wrote this album with parents in mind. We wrote it to be fun and relevant to the 5 and under crowd, while also entertaining parents. A-O alley oop oop is an example of our approach. Its a song about toilet training that grooves and includes real, individually recorded, farts. That's right, we farted on a microphone (several times) for your listening pleasure. Hope you enjoy!

About: Lo-fi Psych Pop from Denton, TX.

05 - These Old Ghosts - When The Conversations Fade
About: This song was one that Kyle, our singer, played acoustically. When recording in Chicago, barely ever playing as a band at all, we wrote and recorded the full band version in one day.
---------------------------------
06 - The Human Race - Better Not Touch
About: Do you remember when you were a little kid and you were told to "look with your eyes, not your hands". This track is a tongue in cheek reference to those childhood days.

08 - Caerus - (Theme_From) Adventurous Journey
About: This was written and recorded in Blacksburg, VA during the summer of 2011. The instrumental developed first in software, walking the line between classic electropop and surreal pop. It felt like a theme song, hence the title, whose vague wording is meant to sound like something goofy translated from Japanese. The strange guitar line was recorded next, and then the vocals. The lyrics are a mantra to keep focused on goals and to never forget the beauty of LIFE.

09 - Clearside - Shapeshifter
About: Shapeshifter was the first official song released under the artist name Clearside. The first song that I felt confident with sharing to the rest of the world. It was written during sessions for our rock project called "Down To A Crawl." When that project failed to materialize I decided to finish and release the track under the Clearside banner. The song truly embodies all that the Clearside sound is: dark, electronic, dirty synth, riff rock guitars and a bad attitude. Rob Hogue is featured playing tasty guitar on Shapeshifter.

10 - These Old Ghosts - I Should Be Sleeping
About: This one of the acoustic songs on our first EP. Kyle wrote it on the way to the studio, on our last day of recording time. Heavily influenced by the stressful five days spent writing and recording the EP.

11 - From A Moving Train - Do You Love Me
About: Our most epic track ever. Over a year in the making, we put everything into this song - from shimmering acoustic guitars and shining mandolin to soaring strings and searing slide guitar. Our masterpiece, at least so far.
