Did you record Apocalypso in a single session, or was material accumulating while on tour supporting Beams?
JH- Beams was put together with parts of our demo, EPs, new material, a whole mish-mash of things. This one, we came off the road after about 3 years of touring with pretty much absolutely nothing. We got a couple ideas down, basic sketches, early last year. Then we went on the road to Europe, and then came back home and did the record in about 3 months from practically nothing, wrote, recorded, produced, mixed, everything very very quickly. I hope it sounds like that too. Not quick, but sounds like it’s from a time. This record, I can pin it down to a certain time in my life, our lives. Whereas Beams was pretty scattered, over at least 2 years. AS- How would you characterize that time? JH- I guess the first thing I think about is how quickly things went because we had been touring for so long. But also, socially here in Australia, I was looking at a lot of things myself lyrically. I was doing a lot of touring overseas, meeting so many beautiful people in the States, Europe and the UK
