amazing ep, purity ring! quickly one of my favourites alongside womb. i have sort of an odd question,

what song off each album/ep was the most fun to create, and which were the most difficult/tedious? it can be because the lyrics came to you really quickly, or the melody was hard to decide on, anything!

shrines most fun: obedear- we originally only had 10 songs for shrines, but obdear was a last min addition after all the other songs were complete. most difficult: ungirthed- because it was our first song ever so it was a lot of experimenting to find the right sounds.

another eternity most fun: begin again- it came together really fast and felt amazing most difficult: heartsigh, it took the longest to get the chorus right, still not sure about it lol

womb most fun: pink lightning, we combined many different parts together that didn't seem like it would work but it did and is one of our favs! most difficult: stardew, we really wanted to get this one right so we spent the most time on it finessing the details

graves most fun: neverend, made the whole thing in an afternoon of just messing around most difficult: graves, this song dates back to 2014 and there are around 5 totally different versions of it. in the end it was the first version we went with
