notes
Love Poems and Fight Songs started as demos and a
home recording experiment. Having spent time at great
retro studios (SUMA, the Sound of Music) making
albums that were never quite right, song-writer Lincoln
Morris decided to record and release an EP (Hand-Off
Volume 1) for his newest band Lamont Skylark on his
own. They pressed, sold and handed off a thousand copies.
Based on the response the guys kept up the experiment
and ended up with a heep of songs and tracks stored on
various CDRW's, Zip Disks, and hard drives. After months
of over-dubbing and mixing the project needed a
conclusion, it needed a final mix. The solution was to
turn it into a digital/analog hybrid and take it to the Sound
of Music in Richmond, VA for treatment. Alan
Wheatherhead was enlisted. He has worked with Mark
Linkous (Sparklehorse), Archers of Loaf, and had just
completed work on Trailer Bride's latest project. They
decided the best course of action would be to dump all the
digital tracks to 2 inch tape and mix it to half inch tape for
mastering. Two days later the mixes where done and
shipped to CA to be mastered by John Golden.
So after a year Lamont Skylark has played over one
hundred shows with the likes of Cigar Store Indians, the
Avett Brothers, the Dynamite Brothers, Last Train Home
(to name a few) and wrote and recorded what is a truly
unique and inspired album.
