“This
song is about people often thinking that being progressive has to mean
being exclusive and narrow minded to other points of view,” explains
Corey Ciresi. “This contradicts the meaning of the term "progress,"
which means being open to other ways of thought and change, without
exclusivity. The title of the album, Regards, is a sort of sardonic reference to the ironic politics of the underground and the term "punk."
Comprised
of a classical music teacher, a philosophy student, a nanny/barber, and
a professional poker player, Lee Corey Oswald have crafted a collection
of twelve intriguing indie-punk classics all on one record. The band’s
clever, honest and thought-provoking lyrics combined with their
90’s-esque indie sound, recall bands like Weezer and Knapsack, while
their contemporary edge adds a dash of grit to the musical landscape of
Portland.
Regards was recorded analog on reel to reel tape, capturing the band’s spirit in the moment as they perform each track live to record.
“We love the warmness it adds to the sound as well as the rawness that can't be achieved digitally,” adds Ciresi.
