Background

[edit | edit source]

The Ears Ring EP was recorded during the same sessions as the Long Knives Drawn album. Despite scarce promotion, the album was heavily added on college radio.[1] The music video for "Ears Ring" was loosely based on No Exit, a 1944 existentialist play by Jean-Paul Sartre.[2]

Critical reception
