Make It To Forever
Scott McCloud (Girls Against Boys, Soulside, Paramount Styles, AGRIO) releases his debut solo album Make it to Forever on God Unknown Records.
“In a way, all relationships are simply conversations. Some are brief flashes, sparks, which may extinguish as quickly as they began. Others last longer, or pause for years - only to pick up again where they left off. Some maybe never end. Years ago our band Girls Against Boys had one of those - once in a lifetime dream-like shows in Athens, Greece which for me epitomized a moment in time. Later, I decided to go back and make a record there - inthis place which holds an almost mythological meaning to me. To record music in a city which is more or less a dream is affecting. One is out of place - a visitor-time traveler. Visiting scenes. Alienating and yet comforting. These songs are about memories -romances - ideas - which remain alive and ever changing. The reality of experience itself blurred by time. Music is of course also a conversation-between riffs, motifs- questions and answers. And more questions. Jokes, language, flirtations. Atmosphere. Ultimately, the longest conversation we may ever have is with ourselves. Sitting with a notebook, watching the street life - mopeds & graffiti. The memories we carry become treasures - worlds to revisit which are still alive. And like cities and songs they don’t stop living. The biggest part of who we are is perhaps what we remember.”
