Hope & Smoke 03:39
Hold it in close Whimper secrets in a faith we call our own Beyond the tide we drift afloat Out in the blue, we hold for truth And I can't find a way Complacent in casualty I need to know Before we fold under hope and smoke At this time, tomorrow we'll go Jester of the choke Golden ticket to a bliss we call our home Carried on for the fight of buried folk Looking up, knowing truth We find in casualty The riddle is to the grand charade I need to know Before we fold under hope and smoke At this time, tomorrow we'll go We'll know, we'll know, we'll go

The Blur 04:06
The ups and the downs On my own, I doubted you So bury the cold with the burn let the blur ensue In silence, don't move Any sound in a fragile room Could break me I know, down low Sight of the scars looking down From above I knew A burden below buried deep Hiding from the truth I silence, I couldn't move Not a sound when I broke the news Could break me I know, down low Sliding to the floor....

Forward 05:06
Cold flood is burdening Drowned out, moving forward Smoldered Your frigid stares are loosing Who cares? There's no blue down here A line defined I’m enthralled to the wall It’s something to look for It’s something to shoot for You missed your line this time Abashed let the whirlwind fly around you Disorient to come to A form of clarity Forward, forward The water is rushing A deadly art - oh no Pulling down, further down, speaking out loving you Forward, I'm forward Down here It’s closer now You’ve almost found Harmony Just keep what you’re working on Close, as if nothing’s wrong Don't try to take it personal Forward, forward The water is rushing A deadly art - oh no Pulling down, further down, speaking out loving you

about

1840 is much different than our previous EPs, as it's more of a transitional piece leading up to our full length album to be released around March 2013. The first track on the EP is a new song called "HOPE & SMOKE." The other two, "THE BLUR" & "FORWARD" you may notice are re-done versions of our previous tracks, "The Blur Ensues" & "Frigid Stares." This isn't for a lack of ability to create new material, but over the years in playing these songs they eventually grew into the way you hear them recorded on 1840. Don't get us wrong, we still love the old versions of these tracks as well, but we feel like we got them right this time. Thanks again everyone for your support - it's immensely appreciated by each one of us and we can't thank you enough.
