Two years ago, Circa Survive entered Salad Days studio a band of fantastical origins and boundless ambitions; one that was still developing its chemistry and creative cohesion. Perhaps they were too new to each other; perhaps too unaccustomed to the wholly collaborative creative process they demanded of themselves; perhaps too prepared.

Today, it's hard to remember that Circa Survive -- vocalist Anthony Green, guitarists Colin Frangicetto and Brendan Ekstrom, bassist Nick Beard and drummer Steve Clifford – began their journey together so eagerly. After two years, one successful album and limitless amounts of love and respect earned and shared between one another, Circa Survive has become one of the most impactful, ethereal bands on the planet. Perhaps even more significantly, they've also become a family – which explains why the suburban, Pennsylvania house that serves as the band's writing and rehearsal space is also their shared home. "I'm pretty sure that each member knows everything there is to know about everyone in this band, being together as much as we are," laughs Beard.

It's precisely that level of intimacy that's fuelled Circa Survive's every action – including tours with bands like My Chemical Romance, Coheed and Cambria and Cute Is What We Aim For – and infused their critical accomplishments – they recently graced the cover of Alternative Press' coveted 100 Bands You Need To Know issue (April 2007) – with a sense of pride. So by the time Circa Survive was ready to begin crafting the follow-up to 2005's breakthrough Juturna, the chemistry and togetherness combined with their shared experiences was ready to extend to their music as well.
