Band bassist Jett Beres was quoted as saying "The five years since our last record has been anything but a straight and clear path. After making records together for over 20 years, we found ourselves struggling to find The Sound; a body of work that would honestly represent who each of us were as a band and as individuals. The music that was created was our 'lighter in the dark.' The songs that form this record slowly began to illuminate a clarity of direction and creativity for us. In choosing a record title, this lyric from the song 'Something to Believe In' became the clear choice to represent our journey, our struggles, and ultimately our deliverance." [3]

gollark: You could probably provide grants for that, hmm.
gollark: Adjusting rates for people in specific cities seems like it would make those cities more expensive. Not doing that incentivizes people to go to cheaper places and reduce the cost of living in the big ones.
