		Teaming with Semisonic’s Dan Wilson, who produced the record, the songs are an explosion of guitars, ideas, and the honest confessions of songwriter Justin Milbradt’s life.
		Dan Deurloo, the band’s drummer and backbone, is what Milbradt calls “the most determined person I’ve ever met.” His attack and approach on songs such as Stay Awake and Hello Hello showcase the dynamic, earnest, presence of a musician with something to prove.
		Producer Dan Wilson co-wrote some tracks on the album, and really pushed the band to their limitations in the studio.

	Failure Magazine-Archives-Arts & Entertainment-Jacob Slichter
		Musicians will see the book as a warning about the pitfalls of the music business, while Semisonic fans are sure to lament the band's unrealized potential and bemoan the music industry-types who unwittingly did everything possible to keep the band from achieving mega-star status.
		Dan proposed that we split all the royalties even though he was the [principal] songwriter.
		But musicians and fans are smart and I'm optimistic that someone is going to figure out a way that fans can enjoy music and musicians can make a living.

		Dan and Matt started playing around the same time; Dan, older by two years, stuck to guitar and piano, while Matt, originally a drummer, moved to guitar only when the songwriting bug hit.

		Semisonic, was formed in 1992 with guitarist singer/songwriter Dan Wilson and bassist John Munson, both formerly of Trip Shakespeare.
		Dan and John were very supportive all through the writing process.
		I think Dan and John's former band, Trip Shakespeare, was viewed as a kind of boutique band (though they were on a major label, AandM Records).

	WNYC - Reading Room: So You Wanna Be a Rock & Roll Star
		I was a musician in my early thirties, still living under the cloud of disappointment that had followed me since graduating six years earlier from Harvard, a place for which I was poorly prepared and which in every regard had annihilated my self-confidence.
		His friends held their breath waiting for his return, and when he resurfaced to knock on a friend's door at bedtime, he would walk in, sit down in the living room, and recount with nonchalance nearly freezing to death in his tent and his subsequent escape from a blizzard.
		Dan named our band Pleasure, and we looked ahead to a gap in Trip Shakespeare's schedule when we might be able to record a cheaply made album.

		For as long as I have known him, Dan has been a prolific producer and composer of wonky beats, hilarious suicidal poems and destressed noise.
		If Dan had a gram of commercial instinct, he could be as famous as Paul Mcartney, however I think he would rather entertain himself.
		This album is partly a retrospective of some of the greatest musical moments from Dan’s first series, however for your listening pleasure they have been re-mastered by Resonance FM’s Xentos.

		It's so much harder to put yourself out there and be honest with your emotions and your beliefs, but the songs are so much better and mean so much more when you can let yourself be vulnerable.
		Dan came in with an idea that was some kind of concession, more 'can't we all just get along?' and I said, nope, I can't say that, can't do it.
		Dan was really good at cluing in to that, saying something that didn't back down, but still had a vulnerability to it.

		You may have never heard Eliot Morris on your favorite radio station, or seen his CD in the big-name record stores, or even know who he is, but that's all about to change.
		I feel like, to some degree, what I did with Parker's Back wasn't as honest as it...it was, because these guys are all great musicians and great players, but we were just at a point where everything was just so uncertain.
		But, I'm excited to be working with Dan and optimistic that we're going to have something really wonderful and that we're going to be able to create a record that I'm going to be proud of and that, if given a chance, people will get.
