All of us in the band are thrilled to have our music pressed to vinyl. Especially as we are all so proud of Vox Humana as a lot of time, energy and stress was put into making this be the best possible album it could be. To have it presented through such a physical medium with emphasis on packaging and large format artwork really appeals to us as people who take presentation and formatting very seriously. With the inherent larger nature of the cover sleeve, Matt's hand-drawn artwork for Vox Humana really shines through. Beyond the scope of artwork and packaging, Vox Humana is absolutely intended to be listened to as an album experience from beginning to end with it's story arc narrative and multi-character lyrical dialogue. It's so easy to be distracted when it comes to listening to music nowadays but the nature of vinyl has you going out of your way to make a session out of it from beginning to end. There is something undeniably special about picking out a record, laying it on the turntable and placing the needle onto the groove, sitting back and letting the music take you on a journey. We hope that listening to Vox Humana on vinyl will enhance the end-listeners experience if they are already familiar with the music through purchasing a CD copy, digitally purchasing or through streaming. Or better-yet if they have not yet heard the album, introduce new listeners to how the music was always intended to be enjoyed. Personally speaking - as someone who has been collecting vinyl since the age of 12 (some of my first records include Depeche Mode, Spandau Ballet and Madonna - oddly enough) I am absolutely over to moon to be able to say that something I so heavily worked on is being pressed and released on vinyl. In all honesty, I think little vinyl-obssesed 12 year old me would be completely and utterly mind-blown to say the least. -Adam
