More Info:

On SOMEDAY THIS COULD ALL BE YOURS VOL. 1, The Paper Chase sounds even more unlike any other band in modern music. As a band, The Paper Chase has matured but hasn't lightened up, leaving open spaces and allowing melodies to fully develop, the group presents it's most powerful work to date. Utilizing a newfound dynamic command with drummer Jason Garner making his recorded debut with the group, these songs are able to breathe-subtly building feelings of anticipation, yet erupting into violence and chaos as crisis becomes inevitable. With each track representing a different natural disaster, The Paper Chase leader John Congleton crafts his most startling account of humanity, exploring the existential crisis inherent within a universe seemingly fated to exterminate it's population. While the narrative voices obsess over the batteries in their smoke alarms, the dams along the river and their desperate prayers for health and prosperity, these songs expose the utter frailty of the human condition.
