Throwbacks (The Naked Brothers Band album)

Throwbacks is the final album recorded by Nat & Alex Wolff under the name "The Naked Brothers Band" and the soundtrack to the third and final season of the show of the same name. Under the working title "Songs of Season 3," due to post-production problems, it was originally cancelled, until it was announced on September 19, 2013 to be released as a Nat & Alex Wolff album instead of a Naked Brothers Band album on October 15, 2013, under the title Throwbacks.[1] One song that was recorded for the intended Season 3 soundtrack, "Face in the Hall", which later appeared in the iCarly soundtrack, will not be in the Throwbacks album.

Background

Writing

Nat Wolff developed a lot while writing the soundtrack. He had developed a lot as a song[-writer] since the band's second album, which was released earlier the same year. Many songs from the album had a sense that the writer(s) were inspired by old artists, such as the track "The World (As We Know It Today)" was a modern version of Billy Joel's song We Didn't Start the Fire. The song "Yes We Can" (which features Natasha Bedingfield and Leon Thomas III) was inspired by the presidency of Barack Obama.[2]

Recording

Recording for the album took place in the Summer of 2008 in New York.

gollark: In fact, a lot of the time, the cover image is bigger than the text.
gollark: I'm not a cloud person. It's stored locally (and besides, any cloud thing should probably report filesizes sanely). The thing is that most books are actually less than a megabyte or so, because they generally don't contain many pictures and text compresses really well.
gollark: What?
gollark: I have a few hundred. They mostly don't contain images except for the cover.
gollark: I see. I still think you're probably storing it inefficiently, though.
