“These songs are pretty diverse and from a musical standpoint are mainly inspired by a sudden irresistible urge to write tighter beats and melodies and more economical songs,” guitarist/vocalist Aaron With told DiS.

“Lyrically, about half the songs are related to issues in the workplace: the common experience of entering a job with some amount of idealism and naivety, the process of disillusionment that often follows and the coming to terms with reality & making the best of things… a sort of coming of age tale.”

We know what he means.

volcano! Are planning to tour in North America and Europe later this year – more news when we get it.
