Contents

Peter Silberman has stated that when beginning the band as a solo project, his approach to home recording and production was largely inspired by the techniques of lo-fi musician Phil Elverum (The Microphones and Mount Eerie); in particular, that of the critically acclaimed 2001 release, The Glow Pt. 2. [3] As a result, this influence may be heard throughout parts of the album, as well as on later works such as In the Attic of the Universe .
