FLOWERS FOR ALGERNON

About Me


Instead of getting caught up on fitting into a genre or having the craziest parts, We just try to make music that others can enjoy listening to as much as we like playing it. We are sick of pointing the finger at everyone else for all the problems in the world and about doing something positive starting with the problem, our own depravity. We know that inside us lies the choices to do the right or wrong thing and in this life we battle to do good things. This can only be accomplished by giving up and understanding that we need help because we can't do it on our own.
In January of 2008 we set off to Tennessee to record our "The Body" EP at First Street Studios (As Cities Burn, Belle Epoque, Within, Get Your Guns). The EP was produced and recorded by the wonderful Tyler Orr and Cody Bonnette. The EP was then sent off to be Mastered by Troy Spectre @ Spectre Studios (Underoath, Norma Jean, Hopesfall, August Burns Red).
We are very blessed and honored to have been given the opportunities and make the friends we've been able to. We look forward to what's ahead! Thank you everyone so much for your support no matter how little or how much. We love you guys.
