About this project
Basically, we're trying to make a record where the people who care enough about us and our music to financially support us have almost total access to every step of the process of making this EP and in some cases are able to help us make key decisions in making the album. In this way we'd like to make this process more democratic, a group decision of sorts.
We plan to accomplish this by allowing backers access to blogs, videos and demos of songs we're working on for the record. We're giving backers pledging $50 or more the opportunity to vote on the title of the record and backers pledging $100 or more have the opportunity to vote on what songs make it onto the record and the order in which they appear.
All of the money donated goes towards the process of making the record: recording, mixing, mastering, artwork, duplication, photos, promotion, etc. Rest assured that we WILL NOT personally pocket any of the money raised.
