One thing that really annoys me is when an eighties band puts out a new album that sounds nothing like they did back in the day. Sure, you expect the sound to evolve, but the essence must be there. I made tremendous effort to create a Vladimir album that sounded like what you would expect it to be.
You'll recognize similar themes, but I'm not a teenager anymore. That said, I guess a midlife crisis is only a few degrees away, am I right?
The thirteen songs are split into two "sides", each under 22 minutes long. This is a hat tip to the days of vinyl and the 46 minute cassette tapes I was so fond of using in the eighties. My hope is that the money I make off the downloads can be used to make physical copies in the near future.
I want to thank my sweet, supportive wife for encouraging this project and offering insights. I dedicate it to the memory of T.V. Silvia and Eric Ericson, both of whom supported this dorky kid with the goofy songs--may their memory be eternal!
