Listening to the whole album reminded me of holding a seed in my hands. It felt like the start of something and symbolized birth in times of chaos.
The album, we decided, had to be called nothing more and nothing less - The Seed. There's a lot of space in between the notes. It's a mixture of intimate moments and wide horizons. It's inspired by the Laurel Canyon sound, but we have the big guitar and drums. The lyrics enrich the sonic experience with vivid imagery."
