SUMMONER'S TALES...
"Lyrics should contain surprises and puns and witticisms, but also be a touchstone to my emotional life - or what's going on in the world. It's not just 'moon in June', although I have rhymed moon and June at some point in the past - I'm sure - but there is something there. If you uncover layers, there are more underneath it. I don't know how many, but the intention is there to make a layered piece of work."
