I was just being silly and writing down what's actually happening in the video. I don't know what it all means other than some unforeseeable event rocking the boat and feeling like drowning. I think this is the song Sherri said in an interview was about her insomnia and being able to watch over her kids while they slept. Videos aren't always about the lyrics and are just their own thing though.
*edit*
I picture Sherri comforting her kids, dismissing ghosts with a flick of the wrist like shooing away a moth.
I watched it again. The magician is in the mirror. I guess it may be slomo in the water too. I give it a 10/10, it's ok, but no lions.

got the album in the mail over the weekend. it is so good. and while i miss the stacey song breaks in there, an all sherri album was good.

and i have to say, the thank you on the album was very sweet and almost made me cry.

Looks like there is a double string arrangement credit.
Still early for me but my first thoughts:
There seem to be kinda same-y rock tracks for the odd numbers up until Lion.
The glitch-tronics on some tracks make me wish they would have made a finished version of Lady Get Away and let Stacy be on that since I figure it is mostly her song.
One track towards the end has a strong Bjork vibe.
One track, maybe 4, the chorus makes me think of Chandelier.
Don't know all the titles yet.

I was completely not into this album the first couple of listens, but then I kept listening. And I'm still listening ... I like the comment about it sounding focused, and I agree. I think it's a particularly strong indicator of Sherri's ability to lead a band. Tragically, this one is probably easier to market than any of their past efforts (just because the music is more on one page, stylistically) ... I hope it's enough to keep them rolling.

Looked at Garron's Instagram for the first time in a while, and it looks like the next thing for Eisley is already recorded - if that is how this should be interpreted:

"I graduated college on this laptop, recorded countless @eisley songs on it (including our next unannounced release 🙊), "

I wouldn't think he would record an entire studio album on his laptop. Think it may be an EP, single, Christmas song, etc?

Well, him and Weston recorded at least one Eisley record and the Merriment record at Sherri's so I'm willing to bet that they did record using a macbook.

Maybe. They've never released live tracks, have they?
Other than the Combinations bonus DVD and live videos. The tracks with the symphony and kid trumpet player never came out that I can remember.

Really surprised that they have not used the title
