⭐️ A MESSAGE ⭐️
It’s kinda hard to put into words what it feels like to finally have this album out.
We’ve spent the last five years writing, scrapping, salvaging, digging deeper. Drifting apart, reconnecting. Trying to figure out what the next Hundredth album could be. What it should be.
Some songs we chased for years. Others showed up in a voice memo and stuck. We kept sifting through all of it, trying to find a throughline. There were moments when nothing felt right, and others when everything clicked.
We wrestled with it. Let it sit. Walked away. Came back. Got lost in it. Started over more than once. Until we finally found it.
This album wouldn’t exist without the quiet belief (and the DMs) that there were still people out there who wanted a new record.
So thank you for sticking with us, whether you’ve been around since the days I was slamming microphones into my head or found us somewhere along the way.
Faded Splendor is our most potent and honest record. It feels like the most “us” we’ve ever been.
We hope it finds a place in your world the way it’s lived in ours.

BLUR * it was second to last song i wrote for the album. feels like something that maayybe coulda been on RARE to me. i was on a high from Dark Side and All The Way and wanted one more fast one with a post-punky earworm. the drums in this one are my fav on the whole album. was def leaning into some of my classic favs like Interpol, Editors and Placebo for this one. some older influences in there too, it’s my personal fav lane to write songs in. later on i realized there’s kind of a Dandy Warhols thing happening too. it picks up the pace for the back of the album, though i think it coulda prob been the lead single. for a quick sec i thought this section of it was a little too “modern” but ended up loving it. happy to see the love on it so far ⭐️
GLIMMER * (i think) it was the first track we wrote after Somewhere Nowhere came out in 2020.
always felt like i was chasing an arena-rock-springsteen thing trying to find vocals for this one. finally resurrected it and found the melody towards the end of putting together the album. glad i stumbled back onto it cuz i think it’s one of the more underrated tracks. that’s just my dumb opinion tho
