ofallthewalls I think that this one's my favourite. cuz unlike any other, I can count the scene by the minute what a fickle thing to want, but sometimes that's all you need (x2) And I can change, if I "want" All that's left is the want And I've become these things and nothing more When all you want is, more more more It's just gonna take some time is all No not today, I was wrong No not today, I was wrong No not today, time is all And I can change, if I "want" All that's left is the want No not today, not today

about

recorded, mixed and mastered primarily in apartments in Kitchener and Toronto, Ontario + sporadically throughout the fall of 2015 (with few 'emergency' comps, and 'kinda funny' from winter 2016).

I would like to thank everyone for their infinite support, guidance and love including:
the entire Shelton/Murphy/Sheldon clan, Margot Couse, Hippo, Morty, Tasker Hull, Brendan Moore, Keith J McManamen, Michael Hull, and Jeffron de Savoye

Thank goodness for backups.
I lost all of these tracks (exlcuding poorly mastered exports) in the winter of 2016 when my primary hard drive crashed. Thankfully I backed everything up on a 64gb microSD I could not locate after moving back to Toronto from Kitchener, Ontario for sometime.

A lesson was learned:
Always backup, and never be so ashamed of yourself and what you create

Love,

Kaleb Shelton

whold the band:
A not-so-quiet contemplative solo album turned into a power-trio, whold runs the gamut from slow lo-fi grooves to pop-grunge-art-rock with sweeping delayed and chorus/phased driven guitars, an emphasis on bass melodies mixed with straight-to-the-point harmonized phrases exploring uncertainty, and sacrifice in today's age of myth
